"Jessee Jackson is a racist scoundrel"

And so was Toothless Tookie.

Williams also said he killed Owens "because he was white and he was killing all white people." Later that same day, Williams bragged to his brother Wayne about killing Owens. Williams said, "you should have heard the way he sounded when I shot him." Williams then made gurgling or growling noises and laughed hysterically about Owens' death.

Stanley Tookie Williams was convicted and sentenced to death for the murder of Albert Owens, shown in this undated photo, at a 7-Eleven in Whittier, Calif., in 1979.

I have a feeling that for all his tough talk, Tookie will be dragged to the gurney kicking, screaming and squalling like a baby. I perceive him as the type that was comfortable sitting in prison and never thought that consequence would catch up with him. I imagine right now, he's consumed by anger, not for the jury, judges and governor, but for his supporters, apologists and attorneys, for not coming through. I'd hate to be one of the guards that comes to take him when it's time...I don't believe he's ever been repentant, and for his soul's sake I hope I'm wrong. He's a man of violence and doubt he'd miss the opportunity to dole out just a little more. His petulant refusal to eat a last meal cemented up my opinion of his psyche...he was willing to eat the state's food when his execution was up in the air...but now that it's the state that's killing him, he's not going to eat it. Well, he's been eating for many years, which indicates to me he apparently wasn't taking the death sentence all that seriously until quite recently.
