On the left it is all about US and Them.
Maybe we’ll be fortunate enough to see Alec Baldwin get dragged behind a car in time for the next election.
Only a truly civilized and virtuous society has the moral authority to expect it’s people to obey the law and to expect as well the ultimate justice for violating the ultimate law.
Societies without Capital Punishment or fail to use Capital Punishment in an effective way degenerate.
NONE. We here in Atlanta insure the wanna-be Africans who are really Americans that want to tear something up keep that conduct in the West-end ie they get to tear up their own neighbourhoods if they want and then no body will notice.
What they didn't tell you is that ACORN was collecting the signatures. :-P
I personally think they should have drug him from Dallas to Brownsville and then executed what was left.
This is the first 30+ pages of the Federal Court Order going over the dozens of eye witness reports. The rest of the case is on another thread, I'll try to find and repost it.

Brewer was the white supremacist executed by Texas the same day as Georgia executed Troy Davis. Brewer was executed for his role in the gruesome murder of James Byrd. James Byrd was murdered by being dragged behind a pickup truck.

I thought Bush did that?
Ah, another one who shoots without seeing the target (no pun intended). Geez, what is it going to take before people start to do the background before firing off with unsubstantuated remarks based solely on what they hear from the media?
Did these people conduct a similar vigil at the funeral of the slain police officer? Just wondering.
Two bloated faces, two bloated egos, two bloated wallets.
