Great article !! Good riddance to this cop killer. These amnesty groups have a way of getting an eye witness to change their mind about what they seen and that makes it look like these killers are not guilty. He deserved to die a lot sooner.

He was black therefore he was setup by “the man”.

MSNBC spent the whole night last night agitating for this cop-killer’s innocence. Even after the execution, they were calling him “innocent”.

Georgia authorities should have wrapped this cop-killer in a uterus, THEN executed him.

The left wouldn’t have DARED to say a word about it, then.

You’d think all the celebs, et al who get on the “he was framed” bandwagon would pick a guy who really appeared to be innocent. They always pick scumbags.

I own a .38 (or at any rate I did own a .38 until I sold all of my guns in untraceable private transactions the day after the 2008 elections).

Maybe they'd like to accuse ME of the murder?

I’m fine with it too. Troy Davis lived over 20 years longer than his last two victims. He got a more humane death than he meted out to his victims. He was a stone cold killer, multiple people saw him commit the crime and now he has finally received his punishment. And whatever God has in store for him. There may be innocent people on death row but Troy Davis was not one of them.

Husband was watching news on both channel 2 and 5 last night (11:00 PM) so I’m not sure which channel the reporter said this on (I was in another room but could hear the news reports). Anyway, one reporter said about the pro death penalty protesters, “And there’s not the blood lust on this side, AS YOU WOULD EXPECT”. He just had to get that in.

Ann Coulter’s September 21st column covers this case and provides all the information that is omitted from most left-wing news reports. The title of her column is “Cop Killer is Media’s Latest Baby Seal.”

I read somewhere that he was also convicted of another murder.
Any info on that?
Thanks V537

They always pick scumbags.

Their support of scumbags (who clearly always fit a certain template) is nothing more than a gesture of contempt for the society they look down on.

Ann Coulter had a good review of this case in her column today.

This thug killed the officer in front of 34 witnesses in the middle of a crowded Burger King parking lot.

He shot the officer once, then while he was down, walked over to him and shot him again.

This thug just needed killing.

Condolences to the family of the officer. After everything they've been through they have to listen to all these lies from the media and this criminal's supporters.

“Cop-killer”

I’ve never understood why cops are put in a special class when it comes to homicides. You never hear “Doctor-killer” or “bartender-killer”. Is it because it takes a special amount of brazenness to kill a cop?

Is killing a cop any worse than killing a civilian? If anything, I would argue that killing a civilian is worse, since a cop is usually armed. In truth, neither is better or worse than the other. A human being was killed by a thug.

Farewell Troy. Hope you made peace with God before the lights went out.

But based on the fact that he challenged the conviction up until the end, I have my doubts about that.

I intentionally watched PMSNBC last nite so I could take pleasure in watching them all moan and groan about the injustice of putting Troy to death, and then I took further pleasure when the deed was done, Troy was dead, and there was nothing they could do about it other than moan and groan some more. Made my nite. A twofer. A cop killer was dead and PMSNBC was very unhappy. Slept well last nite.
