Texas Treats Illegal Alien as a Genuine Citizen of the United States and Executes Him for Murder

The state of Texas executed Humberto Leal for the 1994 brutal rape and murder of a 16-year-old Texas girl. The fact that Leal was living in this country illegally since 1975 was irrelevant. Dismissing pressure from the United Nations, foreign and American diplomats, former President George W. Bush, Barack Obama, the Department of State, Mexico, and the International Court of Justice, Texas executed its laws and Leal. The Governor of Texas, Rick Perry, refused to exercise his discretion to grant Humberto Leal a 30-day delay of execution, which was congruent with the rejection by the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles of Leal's request for a reprieve. Rick Perry and the Texas Board of Pardons stood on solid legal ground, the Supreme Court agreed with the State of Texas, and Humberto Leal left Texas for good on July 7, 2011, at precisely 6:21 pm.

President Bush went to bat for this guy too:

Death Penalty Case Puts Bush and Texas at Odds Over Mexican's Fate

Here is what President Bush was trying to save in that case:

The Murders of Jennifer Ertman and Elizabeth Pena (Warning: Brutal Descriptions)

For some reason President Bush always put the interest of Mexicans, even raping murdering Mexicans, over the interest of his fellow American citizens. Revisiting this case has brought back a lot of my negative feelings toward President Bush. He hurt this country in a lot of ways.
