The DA in Bay Shore, NY, is a republican. Long Island is generally republican. Hammurabi (correct spelling) might have believed cutting off a hand was appropriate, but we tend to be more civilized than than. Most of us. Jesus taught us 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth. But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also.'
The eye for an eye quote is so misrepresented these days.
