Clinton and his stupid precedents. This nonsense could go on forever. The dead are all innocent, they're certainly beyond the reach of law. Let this dumb idea die with Clinton.
Some of these people truly were innocent though and just victims of a less-tolerant time. Why shouldn't the situation be rectified, if possible, to give dignity back to the convicted's family? It's not like it takes a lot of effort.
It's not like the guy died in prison (unless I read the article wrong). This is profoundly stupid. What's next? Overturning 70-year-old jaywalking convictions?
I would imagine Johnson is up in heaven wondering why a bunch of poverty pimps and jabba the hut lookalikes want to use his name. Heaven is the ultimate pardon and those democrats to include hatch are a bunch of morons. They are just doing feel good politics at the most. Johnson was guilty of no crime. Only the democrats created this law to hinder any person of color. I think the great Jack Johnson would not accept any help from these hypocrites. Maybe he would have knocked jesse's and jabba kennedy's running lights out for good. Bush/Cheney 2004
