There is a Kevin Cooper scheduled to die here next Tuesday. The socialists are having rallies for him to prevent the execution, but Gov. Arnold refuses clemency and will not review the case (after 18 years). This man stabbed an entire family and friend of a family, and left one witness. He asked for DNA results, found out they showed he was the killer, and now says they're flawed.

Good grief. I really don't know what to say to stories like yours and djf's. It's so sad whenever justice takes a back seat to political correctness (or political expediency).

I'm so sad for all of you who have to face, literally, a lifetime of waiting for justice to be served.

I know that Florida is also heading down that path. It's going to happen eventually, just based on the fact that out-of-staters are continually moving here and forcing their ideas and opinions on the rest of us.

But I want everyone to understand - we have not yet reached that point. If this Joseph Smith really is the bad guy, he will die for it. Guaranteed. At least as far as the death penalty is concerned, we don't screw around (not yet, anyway).

I really hope that Carlie is okay, but, realistically, that's probably not the case. This guy will get his due.
