At the John and Ken website (linked), the photos of three of Tookies' victims victims have been posted. It's said that this monster has mended his ways, but I don't believe he has even apologized for these atrocities. But even if he had, he needs to be held accountable for his evil acts. I TRUST THAT GOV. SCHWARZENEGGER WILL NOT SPARE TOOKIE FROM HIS DATE WITH DEATH -- HIS DATE WITH ACCOUNTABILITY.
I don't share your optimism. I'm willing to be Schwartzeneger has already made up his mind to commute this filth.
Why does CA even have the death penalty? It's a joke.
All bets are off trying to figure out what the hell Arnie's doing. He is starting to show that he's really a girlie man now and may not be the terminator after all.
I can't believe he has lived this long.
( I recommend you not look at the photos. I don't usually but for some reason did this time. I regret it ).
A pictures worth a thousand words.
Some how "I'm sorry I've changed" -vs- Ye-Chen Lin's photo, or any of the other three, just doesn't cut it.
If they need someone to run the execution I'm sure I could take some vacation time on the 13th.
I don't think Arnold will commute Toothless. However, can you imagine being threatened by the Crips?
I don't know... I think he would have done it by now.
The really sad part is that even if Tookie does get to meet the needle, he still would be getting off a lot easier than he deserves, or than his victims. I say he needs to die PAINFULLY.
From a guy from NC, I think the entire state is a joke to the point that we're trying to get our kids back home here on Lake James in the clean, clear foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
I damn near barfed on the BART in San Fran when a guy began to lick his boyfrind's ear. After that, we took taxis to get to our destinations.
For once church guy I agree with you.
Except that he almost certainly would be replaced by someone much more liberal than he is. Yes, it's possible to be more liberal than Arnie.
It won't do much for his movie career either - 'Big tough guy turns out to be a wuss'
It may come as a surprise to some that there still are more conservative voters in California than in any other state. Unfortnately, there also are more liberal voters than in any other state.
Oh dear Lord, that third picture is especially awful. Prayers for the victims.
When I was younger, I dated a guy that did research on police suicides in Chicago. He had access to the police files.
The photos never failed to, at the very least, send a chill down my spine. And break me up at the worst, especially when I read about their families.
I cannot express this adequately, but the line between life and death is so fragile. To think that just moments before, these people laughed and smiled, watched t.v., worried about their mortgages, got frustrated (or worse) when they got cut off in traffic, made love with their spouses...
May God rest their souls.
Saw the pictures. Sick. Those who think Tookie is such a great guy, should have to carry them around and look at them every ten minutes for the next few weeks.
To remember folks, he's sorry...
Bull s--t. This guy has had decades to prove his innocense. He hasn't. Let the solution flow...
You know, I emailed Arnold to NOT pardon Toothless.
However, I really think we maybe should get rid of the death sentence for these reasons:
1) the appeals process costs us more than life with no parole.
2) the death row monsters become these liberal celebs
that victimizes the victim and all of us again!
For example, scott Peterson ...even Charles Manson ..don't get the publicity these death row guys get.
