Give him to me for a couple of days, and you can fry up what’s left.

Detailed article about this case. This jerk needs to fry.

I was just reading up on execution in Texas, they use lethal injection these days but they really oughta bring Ole Sparky back for one last dance with this Humberto beast.

Texas retired the electric chair in 1965.

I have to agree with you on that. Ole Sparky needs to be fired back up for this execution.

Arrowhead—I say get a rope and hang him high!

I have a rather large Pin Oak tree on my property in Lee County that I’ll volunteer to use. It was known as “The Hanging Tree” back in the 1800s and into the early 1900s.

Obama clearly has it in for Texas in much the same way that he does for the UK.

[basil]

Works for me! Of course then you would have to host the after party....

[luvie]

Obama and minions in the UN.....butt out of Texas’ business!

[luvie]

If you’re not a Texan, you should be!

[crusty old prospector]

As a Texan, I am pissed off that I have had to pay for this animal to live and fund all of his appeals for seventeen years. Perry should send the bill to mexico.

Sigh... I know. Almost all my favorite FReepers live in Texas.

“DEAD MAN WALKING...... Just sayin......”

~53 hours and counting. It would be an honor to be the Walls Unit warden at this one. Wonder how many of those anti death penalty clueless ones will be protesting or holding a vigil outside the unit this time.

[HiJinx]

Ping!

[luvie]

Come on down! :)

Maybe he knew him in Chicago, but didn’t know he was a kidnapping, raping murderer.

Given that Leal did not have a valid visa or work permit to be in the U.S. (according to the article, his parents brought him illegally to the U.S. at the age of 2), and thus could not have been registered with the Mexican consulate or embassy, how the heck could one deem the Texas police to have been required to contact the Mexican consulate or embassy?

It would be so, so easy for the Obama Administration to distinguish this case from one in which, say, a tourist just off the plane was charged with a crime and the cops didn’t inform him of his right to contact his embassy, but that wouldn’t have the added “benefit” of kowtowing to the Mexican government.

Whether this gets me in trouble or not I dont care anymore but someone needs to seriously step up to the plate and tell Obama to go F himself. We’re past the point of no return as a nation and our way of life as a free nation is all but destroyed but lets go down like Patriots and not like chumps.

You’ll never get in trouble for holding the same view as 90% plus of the FR membership.

[struggle]

Hey Republicans, might want to remember this for 2012.
