Texas, which is far and away the leader, has done slightly more than 800 executions in the last 27 years, which comes out to approximately 30 per year. No other state in America is even remotely close. I would be stunned if anyone could find even one day in the last thirty years in which more than one person was executed.

That backs up what I was saying about trying to compare our system of capital punishment to the Islamic world's system. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
