We get it wrong. In fact we probably get it wrong more than we get it right.

But we cannot un-ring the "execution" bell. Once we have executed someone they are dead. Just dead.

The justice system is often wrong.

those kinds of things would never transpire. Texas is a model for the nation, and I highly doubt that they have a single innocent person on death row. If there are problems with the system, then the answer is not to abolish the death penalty. It is to improve the process by looking at places where we know it works, and trying to extend that effectiveness to the rest of the country.

it has been a bad day- thanks for the laugh.

Police state out of control. Someone on here thought I was crazy to think we have a police state now. Uh...buddy...you must have affluenza because it's been that way for over 25 years. I see it and I'm white. Imagine how minorities feel. And now with the technology they use to spy on us it's full blown. You should see how mellow it is in other countries. Raising a kid here now is dangerous.

hope he sues the shit out those fuckers!

If the conviction was based mostly on her eye witness testimony why should she get a free pass? Why does everyone always blame the police and the DA? There was an eyewitness. The jury convicted because of eyewitness testimony. She probably lied to protect the real killer.

Thanks for the thread, Judi Lynn.
