I'm pretty sure Tookie turned down a last meal. Any suggestions?

[scott says]

ahhh...my hometown. FRY Tookie

He could always eat a .45 for all I care...

"Massie was a violent idiot, unsympathetic in every way, apart from his choice of last meal, which included two large vanilla milkshakes with “extra crispy” French fries."

Hmmm.... nope, still don't feel anything for the man.

Tookie will take his last meal intravenously..

Eat sh*t and die would be my suggestion.

In jail the gang leader has authored children’s books that preach non-violence; gained the support of celebrities and politicians; been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize; and become the subject of a TV movie starring Jamie Foxx.

I have heard variations of this phrase at least a dozen times in the last week.

Not once have I heard a word about the victims.

are Crips carnivorous, or just murderous?

I don't remember who said this, but I read a suggestion that the prisoner's last meal be poisoned. I like that idea.

[Artemis Webb]

Sure...I have a suggestion for a last meal.

How about he enjoy it with all of the families of people murdered by the crips since day one? I'm so sure they would be very impressed with all the children's books he has written.

What would you like, Tookie?

The author of this article is so out of touch he does not realize these are all factors AGAINST Tookie Williams.

You know why don't these pablum pukin liberals sign a contract sayin that any crime from the canceled excution date forward,that any crime that the Tookster commits in jail,they have to serve the time for.In other words if Tookie happens to accidently shank a guard in the back,the libs like Jesse Jackson do the time for that crime.I wonder if they would be willing to do that...then they can write their own "childrens book."

[doug from upland]

He could eat mushrooms or blowfish and not worry about it.

[Lancey Howard]

Any suggestions?

Something that will turn into a rock in his intestines. Maybe some MREs. To heck with all this author's sympathy for the last meal cook or the guy who switches on the chemical drip - - what about the poor janitor who has to clean up the gourney after Tookie evacuates himself?

[msnimje]

It is hard to will a man to die when all he wants is a vanilla milkshake.

Desire for a vanilla milkshake outweighs a life of crime and the murder of AT LEAST 4 people?

Moral equivalency run amok.

"My own instincts are against the death penalty, for reasons that include the current transformation of Williams into a cult hero, and the terrible psychological burden put upon those who carry out the killings."

Chris Ayres is clearly an idiot. He assume a terrible psychological burden on the executioner, hey Chris, they volunteered for the job. There is a simple solution to the perceived cult hero status, it will be solved with a lethal injection.
