Ik ben opnieuw The West Wing aan het kijken. Zal voor velen hier niet interessant zijn, maar het is echt een super goede serie. Het is realistisch, goed geacteerd (marting sheen ook) en het is een super script.
Als je benieuwd bent, het is echt aan te raden.
TOBY
Yeah, well, you’re welcome. [Both get up.] The Torah doesn’t prohibit capital punishment.
RABBI GLASSMAN
No.
TOBY
It says, “An eye for an eye.”

You know what it also says? It says a rebellious child can be brought to the city gates
and stoned to death. It says homocoïtusuality is an abomination and punishable by death.
It says men can be polygamous and slavery is acceptable. For all I know, that thinking
reflected the best wisdom of its time, but it’s just plain wrong by any modern standard.
Society has a right to protect itself, but it doesn’t have a right to be vengeful. It
has a right to punish, but it doesn’t have to kill.
