Originally posted by avro_arrow_25206According to the article, he was sentenced to death in 1981. What took so long to make this decision?
Here in the US there is ample time given to those on death row. It is time for them to go through a series of appeals that can go as far as asking clemency from the President in federal cases if memory serves me right. In this case it was a state case so it could go as high as the GOVENATOR...... Yet another way that the legal system creates room for clutter in most cases. It is very sad as those who in my humble opinion deserve to have their execution stayed hardly ever get it.... case and point Stanley Tookie Williams who has seemed to turn his life around and is out for the better now.O'Hare - The Aviation God's greatest creation, or their greatest mistake? you be the judge!

I hope something happens here cause I have read one of this guys books. Touching IMO, really touching.O'Hare - The Aviation God's greatest creation, or their greatest mistake? you be the judge!

Yea, killing Tookie makes a lot of sense. I mean, the four people he killed will just come back to life the second they hit the needle!
What was that bit about compassion again?
Life in prison would definitely drive anyone mad, especially in solitary confinement. Think about it- dying would be the best thing that could happen to you if you realized you'd spend the next three decades by yourself.

case and point Stanley Tookie Williams who has seemed to turn his life around and is out for the better now."The Director also sets the record straight on what would happen if oxygen masks were to drop from the ceiling: The passengers freak out with abandon, instead of continuing to chat amiably, as though lunch were being served, like they do on those in-flight safety videos."
-- The LA Times, in a review of 'Flightplan'

My beliefs-
Capitol punishment is OK for: Terrorists and killers of 4 or more people...
Other than that, they should stick to prison time.Fly Raleigh-Durham International, with direct flights on Air Canada, AirTran, American Airlines, American Eagle, America West, Continental Airlines, Continental Express, Delta Airlines, Delta Connection, jetBlue, Northwest Airlines, Southwest Airlines, United Express and US Airways to:

Well apparently he has been working for peace. What bullshit if you ask me. He won't help authorities and has thousands of people on the streets right now with illegal guns.
Seems like a bunch of crap that people want him not to die; you kill someone then you should be killed. I'm sorry but the whole compassion stuff is crap. They didn't show compassion killing their victims.Tanner Johnson - Owner
