Your headline is somewhat, er, "curious." It seems like you're acknowledging that he's "just a burglar."

Nice and inflammatory: "Texas executes burglers". Then you read and discover the guy is being executed for an actual cold blooded murder.

The perp is a self-described "burglar" and proud of it, who, by his own admission, just happens to have shot a man in the head multiple times.

Sounds like a murderer to me.

Go Tejas!

"Death row inmate Bobby Glen Cook admits to being a thief but insisted he was no killer."

Didn't anyone read the 1st sentence? He says he's no killer so let him go.

"Cook, 41, condemned for the 1993 shooting death of an East Texas fisherman"

Fraudulent headline. Fraudulent article. He's a murderer. That's why he's being executed.

Why are you repeating that BS? He's being executed for murder, not burglary.

Maybe he just forgot.

There should be a federal law requiring all states to have a change of venue to Texas for any capital offense cases.

Texas serves 'em up right!!!

What a bunch of CRAP, he's being executed because he murdered a man, not because he robbed them... what total nonsense.

"Death row inmate Bobby Glen Cook admits to being a thief but insisted he was no killer."

The author of the story lied with that sentence. Further in the story, Cook admits that he shot Holder, but claims it was self-defense. Of course, the forensic evidence refutes his claim of self-defense, leaving cold-blooded murder as the only reasonable conclusion.

Sadly about half of America tends to overlook nasty little details like that.That half is called Liberals and they are the reason we are not safe in our homes.
