Maybe if these anti-death penalty kooks chose less detestable people as their poster-children...

This decision will be a real shot in the arm for Arnold's poll numbers. You are evil. ;-o
To: lunarbicep
It was the right decision.

California gives them a choice...he can pick gas or injection. If he doesn't pick...it'll be picked for him...lethal injection.

Unfortuantely, they've switched to injection. Gas, being a truly horrible, allbeit brief, experience is far more appropriate, especially for a vile subhuman POS like this thing.

I wonder what the Arnold bashers are going to say???Now they'll say there will be riots.
And they'll be wrong again.

I wish that Arnold had not made any announcement; or waited until about 11:55PM. I would be like in the old black & white movies, the warden leaves the phone line open...watching the black phone to see if THE CALL will come in...but it doesn't and the clock hands move to 12 Midnight...and the switch is thrown. It would be much better theater.

Snoop Dog. He's a really obnoxious rapper who is one of the people protesting to save Tookie.

From Michelle Malkin:
Williams was convicted of murdering four innocent bystanders with a sawed-off shotgun in 1979. There was nothing peaceful or compassionate about the way Alvin Owen, Thsai-Shai Yang, Yen-I Yang and Yee Chen Lin died. Owen was a white teenage clerk at a 7-11 convenience store, shot twice in the back of the head -- execution-style -- as he lay unarmed on the floor during a hold-up. A witness testified that Williams mocked the gurgling sounds Owen made as he lay dying. "You should have heard the way he sounded when I shot him," the witness quoted Williams.
The Yangs were Taiwanese immigrants who, along with their daughter Yee Chen Lin, were gunned down during a motel robbery two weeks after Owen died. Half of the daughter's face was blown off by the shotgun blasts, former L.A. County Deputy District Attorney Robert Martin told me in an interview this week. Williams called them "Buddhaheads," Martin recounted, and robbed them of petty cash.
Williams has yet to apologize to the victims' families. When the trial ended, Martin told me, Williams muttered to the prosecution team, "I'll get every one of you m-----f-----s." Spoken like a Nobel laureate.
I have no qualms about the state executing this POS. I think it's unfortunate that his death will be painless.

I don't like rap or hip-hop or whatever they call it this week, but it's not worth the death penalty............well, maybe a little..........

About five minutes of dangle and strangle would really be fitting here.

California gives them a choice...he can pick gas or injection. If he doesn't pick...it'll be picked for him...lethal injection. "Gas or Lethal Injection?"
"Ah, no. Freedom."
"What? "
"Eh, freedom for me. They said I hadn't done anything, so I could go free and live on an island somewhere."
"Oh. Oh, well, that's jolly good. Well, off you go, then."
"Naa, I'm only pulling your leg. It's lethal injection, really."
"I see. Uh, very good. Very good. Well, out of the door."

Freeper's all...this was the right decision by Arnold. Let's not celebrate over Tookies impending death however. It's all a tragedy and gut-wrenching for ALL involved. Let God decide his eternal fate. Remember we all have sinned and gone astray in some form or fashion. Thats why Christ the Savior was born into this world to save us sinners.
