Clemency bid denied for gang killer

Quote from ZZZzzzzzzz:

Retribution is a primitive base instinct.

I guess that is the nature of a "Christian Nation" following the will of Jesus Christ to kill the sinners.....

Execute the killers for Jesus.....oh what a country....

I think you need to consult the dictionary. You are thinking about revenge.

Incidentally, why are you so upset about some jig killer going to the chair?

I just don't think is correct for people to murder. And to me is clear that if you take someone's life, yours should be revoked.

Canada and Europe have always had a low homocide rate, compared to the US.

Quote from Brandonf:

I don't think that the capital punishment serves too much of a purpose other than to maybe make the victims family feel better. And, if it does make them feel better I'm all for it, but they should have to pull the switch themselves if they really want the person dead. There is no death penalty is Canada or Europe etc and you are much less likely to be killed there than in the US, it does not work.

# noun: the act of taking revenge (harming someone in retaliation for something harmful that they have done) especially in the next life (Example: "The swiftness of divine retribution")

Quote from BSAM:

Yo Bambino.....

What do think about the costs/effectiveness of my plan:

#1 Catch 'em on Monday.

#2 Have their trial on Tuesday.

#3 Cut their head off on MTV on Wednesday.

Big change in the USA, huh?

Clorox would be the logical sponser for that programming slot.

Quote from ZZZzzzzzzz:

Once again we see the right wingers justify their actions by the benchmark of the acts of crazed murderers.

The murderer acts insanely to kill, the "sane" then execute the killers...

The bar is set by the sinners actions, so the "saved" Christians feel they can kill the killers....as long as their killing is "rationalized" as lawful....and with full sanctity of the virtuous.

America, this so called "Christian Nation" is spiritually bankrupt....

Yes, forgive us Tookie.

Well you got that right. retribution is a noun.

something given or exacted in recompense; especially : PUNISHMENT

Now go light that candle at San Quentin

I would think racists like those who pervade the ET chit chat forum would want to give Tookie a medal for killing African Americans.....

Why wouldn't they want to turn him loose so that he could go back in the neighborhood and murder more brothers? Wouldn't that serve the ET racist's agenda?

Gang violence? Why does the basic redneck ET member care if the Crips kill the Blood?

That sounds very racist.

Your assumption on ET membership is flawed I believe.

There are for sure some loose cannons here though !!

You don't think there are ET members who are racist toward African Americans, especially those African Americans who belong to inner city gangs???
