3. My DU life will be much better
because Tookie the Legend will be forgotten in a heartbeat. Or maybe not--"C'mon DUers! The spirit of Tookie lives on! What would Tookie have done?" :eyes:

12. DU absolutely MUST have a TOOKIE AVATAR!!!
Because, you know, he is the patron saint of EVERYONE on Death Row! For decades, truly innocent people sentenced to state-sanctioned murder have come and gone, and you rarely (if ever) heard anybody here talk about them on a first-name basis. But TOOKIE, somehow he's different. He's special! Well...he's TOOKIE..for crying out loud! Well, he might have BRUTALLY MURDERED FOUR PEOPLE, but it just doesn't matter, because he's a "cause célebré"! I don't even speak French, and I know what that means!

5. I have a question...
And this is a very sincere question. :)

Please, no flames... I am trying to discuss this rationally.

If death is such an "easy way out" Or " a cop out" as I have seen posted on some of these threads... why would Toolie WANT to stay alive and "rot" in jail as some have suggested?

If I was a convicted killer, sentenced to life in prison, I would WANT to take the "easy" way out...ya know?

Seems to me that some Tookie ( not you ) supporters wanted to have him released?

7. Speaking as an old Soldier
Taking of a life is never right. Answers no questions, asking for answers

8. "Vengence is mine" says the Lord
I say prove He said that. A bunch of story tellers concoted some books and we have to fall on our knees and place our trust in faith. That or blow one another up for 72 vestial virgins in the hereafter. Poppycock.

The kingdom of God is here on earth. We are only given one life, we should not mess it up. Then there would be no need for redemption.

Knowing that, I can now give 2 shits for Tookie or everyone arguing over the DP.

That is how my life is now better. :hi:

10. I get the shivers thinking about his body contracting
In death throws.

All maybe we'll get lucky and it will be videotaped for everyone! We can show it to the little black kids!! Don't grow up and be a Tookie. Oh and read his book.

Yep we killed him so we don't have to kill you.

It will be a safer kinder world tomarrow!! Let's all hold hands and sing!
