Sure, all three men executed were black. But not that it should matter, but I’d like to point out that in all three cases all the victims were black as well. So how can it be racist to carry out the death penalty here?

[ And how many hundreds of future black men are being aborted in the same time period with nary a peep. ]

I love how liberals try to equate execution of CONVICTED criminals to Abrotion of the innocent...

Ie. the whole “How can you be against abortion yet support the death penalty?” argument....

Well it is simple, the babies haven’t ever commited any crimes. Do babies get a trial before abortion? Nope....

Well if a Baby ever claws it’s way through the mother’s uterus and rips her heart out, then maybe after a tiral I would support an abortion of that baby... but that happens near almost literally NEVER....

I don’t care about the color of these capital criminals, and 3 is far too few.

Mojito,
were you to be writing this story might you include the “3 killers” part in said headline?

A “Botched” execution is when the state of Oklahoma failed to execute a man on death row. They simply forgot about him till a couple of months later,so they resentenced him to life.

I knew the worthless POS. He committed a brutal crime west of here in Oklahoma.

I can also think of another worthless POS, from a mean local family who escaped the needle for an extremely brutal crime again in Oklahoma.

IIRC, whites are executed at a higher rate than their per capita ratio of execution-eligible murderers, compared to blacks.

From what I've read in The Atlantic and The Nation, 'progressives' maintain that it is because white people actually show up for jury duty and even more racist that whites are eligible to serve on juries in the first place.

We would hate to have convicted murderers die from botched executions.

Read the comments by the black folks on the site. Overwhelmingly in favor of frying the murderers.

Yep! Exactly. If you or I had done what they were convicted of, we’d be right beside them.

The time to think “appeal”, is when you’re thinking of doing the crime. Pardon yourself by not doing it!

Ever notice how the more vicious a black criminal is the more they plead “Mentally Ill”? Gets them life instead of the needle.

Somebody who knows he's going to grow up to be a street thug, has an early incentive to deliberately do badly on school testing, so that he can claim "intellectually disabled" as a defense. Even if they're too stupid to think of this, you can be sure they have people telling them this.

My concern is that they lived so long. Being executed more than 25 year after doing the crime?

OUTRAGEOUS!

Further--when do we lay off "blame whitey" and begin to blame the race baiters who taught these murderers hate from the cradle on? Sharpton, Jackson et al.

What’s important, that they are black, or that they are women killers? Not just women killers but child killers, or multiple murderers or kidnapper/rapists.

But if Afro.com wants to claim racial solidarity in all that, well, I guess it’s a black thing, and I wouldn’t understand.

Three is far less than the number of black men murdered by other black men on any given day.

They’re concerned about the purity of drugs ...

why?? Because it might adversely affect the health of someone who’s about to die??
