Obama objects. We're all terribly concerned about that.
Adios, Culero!
Hasn’t this guy lived in the US since he was 2!!!!!!!!!!!
He raped and killed a young girl.
Rape and murder are crimes into which nationality does not figure.
What a crappy headline...Rick Perry as governor in Texas can’t make that decision....he has NO authority...
Rememebr back when W. refused to commmute the sentence for Karla Fay Tucker, despite hundreds of appeals from religious leaders and other people, and that lady had definitely repented of her sins..W would not reverse the board's sentencing review..
No, Obama and the international community are trying to introduce politics into the decision.
If he is an illegal alien then he is an invader...let the military execute him.
Could be.
Hopefully by this afternoon he won't be living here any more.
The case of a Mexican man scheduled to be executed on Thursday in Texas threatens to disrupt U.S. diplomatic relations*********
The US isn’t executing this raping/murdering outlaw. Texas is, and this is a state’s rights issue as he violated state law . Simple crime and punishment. Nothing politically volatile about this situation as the Atlantic so breathlessly reports.
This guy has been living in the United States since he was 2. He raped and murdered a 16 year old girl. He should die on schedule!
If international court of Justice rulings are governing domestic criminal cases in a US state, we are justified in overthrowing the government by any means. That was the fundamental concept of the revolution,,, that we will not be subject to Europeans that do not answer to us. Any American leader who sides with this usurpation of our sovereignty is a traitor.
lets re-write that title.....should Rick Perry execute a rapist and murderer.
Mexican don’t come into it.
You cannot come into this country illegally then 36 years later claim you are a citizen of the other country.
Sorry, doesn’t fly. You wanted to come here, you abide by our laws. You raped and killed. 16 year old. In NYC that’s called a resume enhancer. In Texas it is called lethal injection.
At that point, I don't think Perry should stop it. This POS needs to end his breathing capabilities with a quickness.
He has lived here since he was 2!!
He raped and murdered a 16 year old girl.
He needs to meet his maker, preferrably in a few short hours.
Raping and killing a sixteen year old girl should get the death penalty. Obama is trying to stay the execution. The president should have no say in a sovereign state. If Perry caves, that’s it for his campaign if he announces.
The courts, through the appeal process, have sentenced this man to death. That's what the courts are for.
It depends. Was he convicted, in Texas, of a death penalty offense? Was he subsequently sentenced, in Texas, to death?
If the answer to both of those questions is 'yes', then the answer to the question regarding whether he should be executed is a resounding 'Hell Yes'. To act otherwise strikes me as a violation of the 14th Amendment rights of every other person on death row in Texas.
