You REALLY need to take a chill-pill. That reply you quoted from Sicilian Babe had nothing to do about cancer. It was in reply to a rather crude remark that was deleted.

I really don't see anyone here saying that convicted criminals who have cancer are to be treated differently, but since you seem to keep bringing up that point I would question "why"? Yeah, maybe someone who was imprisoned for a relatively minor crime and had terminal cancer should be released early as an act of compassion, but I cannot, and will never, see why a convicted murderer should be given special treatment because they're dying of cancer.
