*Ø* Blogmanac | No revenge urged

USA: The stepdaughter of a man killed by Paul Hill wrote in vain to the Florida governor, Jeb Bush urging against the execution of John Britton's murderer. Hill was killed by the state yesterday.

"Violence begets violence," Catherine Britton Fairbanks told the Pensacola News Journal.

"There is no murder of any kind that justifies killing the murderer, it's not going to bring the person back."

In July 1994 Paul Hill gunned down John Britton, 69, and his security man and driver, a retired air force officer Lieutenant-Colonel James Barrett, 74, outside a Pensacola abortion clinic.
