If mentally ill people are not responsible for their actions, why are they running around loose?

I always thought this was the lamest and most asinine defense. Of course you’re mental; look what you did! And does not change a thing.

How much 'competence' does it take to be executed?

Is he incapable of lying there for the needle? If he's not competent enough for that then the question must be asked: is he even competent enough to breath, to walk, to go to the bathroom on his own?

Seems execution would be doing him a favor - ridding him of his incompetence.

If the guy is that crazy, just strap him to the chair and tell him it’s a carnival ride.

Ron White's routine on Texas and the death penalty is priceless!!

“Most states are trying to get rid of the death penalty. My state's putting in an express lane”!!

According to the newspapaers: A federal judge delayed the planned execution of an inmate Thursday pending an evaluation to determine if he can understand why he is to be put to death.

Jeffery Wood was to have been executed Thursday evening...

So, the Feds let him OFF! The SCOTUS 5 -4 liberal decision in 2007 shows up here. Now another 8 years, I guess! I wish they ould put him in general populations so he could become some big ugly dude's "girl friend".
