Gov. Shwarzeneggar expected to make announcement on Tookie Williams Execution Clemency shortly according to Fox News.
9th Circuit Court of Appeals rejects Tookie's stay of execution. tick, tock.
9th circuit court of appeals rejects stay of execution.
That's what AHHNOLD was waiting to get him off the hook.
Not even this guy?
If you will read the document I referenced earlier, you will find the following tidbits:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.
Now, that IS a shock coming from that circus.
Fair enough. But I still don't think the question can be answered logically for the scenario created. Merry Christmas.
this is old news. it's in arnold's hands now.
Hannity just mentioned what JJ said. His show is opening with a "Tookie Watch"
I have been thinking about Arnold's safety as well. It is a good thing to point that out as a legitimate concern.
Thank you.
Actually Sonny Landham RAN for Governor of Kentucky in 2003 and was defeated.
naaa... 5 Brazillian is prolly enough!!! 8^)
Has Jesse even READ the Bible?
If you want biblical figure swimming in violence, that would be David, not Moses. However, David also paid a steep price for his actions against God.
But of course, Jesse would ignore that part. He probably calls the God of Israel a racist.
"Actually there is no need to argue the point biblically, pure logic will do.
Society either has the right and obligation to punish wrongdoer's or it doesn't. If it doesn't have that right, then you are arguing for anarchy, since if disobeying the law has no consequence then there is no law."
He dropped out of the race for governor in Kentucky a few years back.
The people who think Tookie should be executed won't riot if he's pardoned, but they will remember during next year's election.
The people that think Tookie is some kind of hero may or may not riot, but they will never support Arnold under any circumstances.
If Arnold wanted to play hero to the left, he would have done it yesterday, as soon as the hearing was over. No, he's going to let the execution go forward. However, he won't announce it until the last possible minute, in order to minimize the disruption between the announcement and the execution.
That guy died a few years back (the guy inside the suit...we know the Predator died in the movie)
No, it wasn't satire. I hit the back up button on the satellite to replay what they reported and typed what I heard. I was shocked too, that's why I backed up the live feed to make sure I heard correctly.
