ribit,
re: "...there's a lot more who shoulda been executed and weren't than vice versa."
And there are still more who should have been done away with but who were instead released and then committed additional murders.
I CONDEMN OUR SOCIETY FOR ALLOWING *THOSE* INNOCENT DEATHS.
BTW, in all this fuss OCU and the liberals are making about Troy Davis, you'll notice we aren't much hearing the word "innocent." It's really just a question of whether the death sentence he's been given was based on his race.
IMO, race should never play a role in murderers' executions. We should do away with ALL the 1st degree killers.
But, you know, I'm now opposed to the death penalty. I want to get rid of them in a more literal way... dropping them off on an island with which there is *NO* communication or possibility of escape. Just turn 'em loose with each other . . . and leave.
But I bet the liberals would have a problem with that too.
