Nope, we off more bad guys:
Texas leads nation in the number of executions since death penalty was reinstated in 1976.

Texas neds to execute 3.1 times as many people as Virginia to equal the Virginia rate in a given year.
Noting that we must have messed up in 2008 I am sure that after we elect a Republican governor we will rejust that ratio and once again assume our rightful place at the top of the list.
