I hardly call 20 years of trials and appeals a rush to judgement that sent an innocent man to execution.

In South Dakota a man who sexually assaulted and murdered a 9 year old girl nearly 20 years ago is finally running out of appeals for his death sentence. He had two complete trials in different parts of the state to avoid any jury taint. He demanded and got DNA tests resulting in confirmation he was the person who sexually assaulted the girl. He has appealed on any technicality imaginable and cost the state taxpayers an estimated $1.5 million in legal fees. Finally all these appeals will be exhausted and justice will be served and yet their will be some who will lament this POS being put to death and speculate about his "innocence"

How many times have ‘progressives’ slithered onto Freerepublic abortion threads to demand of we who oppose abortion on demand what we have done to care for babies ‘nobody wants’ or aid pregnant women who have ‘no choice except abortion’? Well, time to turn the tables. Have these opponents of the death PENALTY take the paroled murderers into their homes to live with them during a five year ‘rehabilitation’ period if released from prison. We could then reinstate the death PENALTY after the murderers ‘educate’ the fools.
