The fact that Mumia Abu-Jamal is still sitting in his death cell 28 YEARS after the crime is a crime in and of itself. What deterrence can there be from this? What it is instead is a triumph of political pressure on a compliant penal and judicial system. A travesty.

``They chose the timing and location because the media was there for Code 33,'' said Sgt. Dave Walsh.``It was unfair to the kids who worked so hard on this event,'' he added.
Wow.. Ubama couldn't have found a bigger scumbag if he tried.
