Convicted mass murderer and Crips gang founder Stanley "Tookie" Williams will finally assume room temperature tonight by lethal injection at 12:01 PST. Due to 20 years of lifting weights at taxpayer expense, an oversized syringe will be used to deflate his oversized body and ego. A long line of Hollywood Celebrities will stand outside the prison walls loudly lamenting his unfortunate passing. He is, of course just another victim of the conservative movement's global conspiracy to rid the world of non-white, societal burdens. Leftist Hollywood activists and Democrat politicians are stating that the deflation of Tookie, a high profile system abuser, among other events such as the New Orleans levy "demolition" and subsequent flood, are further evidence of the Conservatives ultimate goal of Arian Christian domination. Mike Farrell, a so so, has been actor stated today that he had personally met with Tookie and had gone over all the evidence in his case. Farrell then stated that based on a role he once played as an attorney in a made for TV movie, had determined Tookies' innocence. He also stated that it really wasn't that big of a deal that Tookie had blown away 4 people. "After all", Farrell said, " They were just 3 Asians and a white guy." "Tookie was feeling oppressed by the man and was just defending himself, you can't blame him!" Tookie's deflated body will apparently be cremated so that the ashes can be used in cologne and sold to celebrities for $1000 per ounce. The exclusive scent will be called, "Tookie, The Stench of Death".

If what I heard this morning is true and he was convicted on:
1) testimony from unscrupulous characters
2) the evidence that was presented wasn't conclusive
3)They barred all blacks from being on the jury.
If this is true, this could very well be a miscarriage of justice. I don't know since I haven't been following the story from the beginning.
Sorry Syph boy, never saw Scarborough. Good to hear others are getting the truth out there also. I think my kids are proud of me as a father. Do you know who yours is? Again, good luck with your happy, healthy attitude.
Would you mind posting a source for your "three asians and a white guy" statement.
What's the problem? Do you not read? This is common knowledge. The case is 26 years old. It has been litigated, investigated and analyzed by multiple judges, juries, investigators and forensic experts. He has had pro bono legal help from the best attorneys available for the past 20 years. I hope even you can accept the probability that despite the desire to find some conspiratorial thread in this case, there is none. The guy did it. And now it's over. The left can now find a new lost pet to try to rescue.
Nobody I know is celebrating his execution. The ending of a life is always tragic. Personally, I'm glad he did something positive with his life from prison. But it doesn't release him from the consequences of his actions.
Here's a brief description of his "Nobel Prize deserving" behavior of which he never took responsibility.
Williams was convicted of murdering four innocent bystanders with a sawed-off shotgun in 1979. There was nothing peaceful or compassionate about the way [Albert Owens], Thsai-Shai Yang, Yen-I Yang and Yee Chen Lin died. Owen[s] was a white teen-age clerk at a 7-11 convenience store, shot twice in the back of the head -- execution-style -- as he lay unarmed on the floor during a hold-up. A witness testified that Williams mocked the gurgling sounds Owen[s] made as he lay dying. "You should have heard the way he sounded when I shot him," the witness quoted Williams.
The Yangs were Taiwanese immigrants who, along with their daughter Yee Chen Lin, were gunned down during a motel robbery two weeks after Owen[s] died. Half of the daughter's face was blown off by the shotgun blasts, former L.A. County Deputy District Attorney Robert Martin told me in an interview this week. Williams called them "Buddhaheads," Martin recounted, and robbed them of petty cash.
Williams has yet to apologize to the victims' families. When the trial ended, Martin told me, Williams muttered to the prosecution team, "I'll get every one of you m-----f-----s."
Personally I don't trust the government to make a case for war let alone the execution of death sentences. We've recently seen a string of death row exonerations (122 since 1973) and it looks likely that several innocent men have been put to death. In much of the country, the criminal justice system is adjusting. Life sentences without parole are on the rise. In both situations the inmate leaves prison in a box, but only one allows for some correction as the result of a mistake.
Yes, I do read. That's a nice little diatribe. Now, could you please tell me the source from which you claim that Mike Farrell made his "three asians and a white guy" comment!
In his last post, Flyober Guy committed the following falsehood to the public record: "Washington DC has experienced 25% more violent deaths than the military has had in Iraq." He lied. It's not even close. Today the trend continues with what appears to be another falsehood, "After all", [Mike] Farrell said, "They were just 3 Asians and a white guy."
I've been able to locate a few instances of that quote in rightwing forums but no attributions to the actor. But note the use of "3" rather than "three." Flyober was probably quoting Farrell from television or radio. Still, it seems curious so I tracked down Mike Farrell to get his opinion on the attribution. Since Flyober Guy writes with impeccable integrity, there should be no case for slander, just a quick clarification of the attribution.
Mr. ithurtswhenipee, sure glad you don't engage in "baseless attacks on people you don't agree with" (your words). The hypocrisy of the raging Left knows no bounds.
Message to Tookie: burn, baby, burn.
Wow! Come on you guys; have you know sense of humor? Look, I know that executing someone isn't funny, but I would think that even a hardhearted liberal could recognize satire, even if it's poorly written! Get a freekin' life! I continue to be amazed as to how heartless and pessimistic the left is. I imagine you as similar to the characters in grumpy old men (no, not Ann Margaret), sitting around, hunched over your keyboards, mumbling and grumbling about life and how good it used to be in the sixties. Liberalism is so yesterday! Get over it. It doesn't work, it never has and it won't ever work.
Attention "glass half empty" people, Quit trying to live in the past and trying to take down our country! Wake up, get busy, be positive and laugh a little bit!
Vet, Thanks for your measured and sane remarks. No I wasn't celebrating or giddy at all over Tookies demise. Ending a life, whether as punishment or in war, is serious business and never should be cause for celebration. I think you are wrong about Malkin however. While I don't consider her a hard news source, I find that she usually has an appropriate and accurate view on the issues. I obviously would trust her a lot more than someone like Al Franken or Maureen Doud.
Why would you "obviously trust her" [Malkin] over Dowd and Franken. All of them are obvious pundits for their respective view points. Each one's remarks should be viewed with equal scrutiny. Have you discovered factual errors in the writings of Dowd and Franken? Please enlighten us.......
Confused Robert,
2 words. "Bush Lied". Both Franken and Doud have religiously used this total fabrication in relentless attacks, in hopes that it would stick and ultimately bring victory to the enemy and subsequent power to their leftist buddies in the demoncrat party. This sentiment of course has been grasped by the lefty MSM, but as Iraq and Afghanistan continue to make progress, their lies will fade as mearly another example of leftist propaganda.
Malkin, on the other hand, at least isn't truth challenged. Her "diatribes" may be slanted, but she's credible.
Franken and Dowd may have been hasty when they declared Bush a liar; dishonesty requires aptitude. When Bush declared that Congress "had access to the same intelligence" as he, the President probably displayed general incompetence rather than dishonesty.
On the surface, the 21 September 2001 Presidential Daily Briefing paints him a liar. It asserts "no evidence linking the Iraqi regime of Saddam Hussein to the attacks and that there was scant credible evidence that Iraq had any significant collaborative ties with Al Qaeda." That summary never appeared in the NIE that Bush refers to when he speaks of "access to the same intelligence." The President probably thought each member of Congress was also a President and therefore received a copy of the PDB. When Chimpy continued to assert nonexistent ties between al Qaeda and Iraq afterward, he may have done so because he's either a dumbass or he doesn't bother to read inter-office communiques.
In 2002, German Intelligence discredited "Curveball" - the source of those nonexistent mobile biological weapons labs. While the White House had access to this information and Congress did not, I suspect it was filtered or discarded before it reached the President. When the White House asserted the existence of those nonexistent mobile labs, it probably better reflects the President's inability to execute his office than general dishonesty.
The Internment Camp apologist [Malkin] posted a lie about Cindy Sheehan changing her story about her first visit with Bush. She also lied about ACORN registering a known terrorist to vote in Ohio. She lied about statements made by Janice Rogers Brown refering to social security as one generation's cannibalization of another. Now I'm not saying that she lies as much as Scud, but she is certainly not more honest than Dowd or Franken. Only a naive little child would believe that Bush never lies.
Um, wasn't this post about executing Tookie? Do all roads always have to lead to Bush Bashing and the reasons we are in Iraq? I mean, Scud could post something on the migratory habits of the common mallard and somehow the exchanges will morph into the same, endless, tiresome rants against GW and the Iraq war. Just once, try and stay on point. Rage against capital punishment....something, anything but Iraq!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bush lied, my gerbil died.
Um, colorme, flyober guy introduced Bush's lies to this thread:

Confused Robert,

With regard to the death penalty, you've got two camps: those who trust the government to kill people and those who don't. Personally, I don't. Before you call me soft on crime, let me say that I prefer to sentence people to life in prison without parole rather than death. In both cases, the convicted person leaves prison in a box. An exonerated man can walk away with whatever is left of his life in only one of those scenarios...
No, Jeff, I disagree. It's not about trusting the government to kill people, it's about consequences for ones actions. If I choose to take another's life for unlawful reasons, I forfeit my own. Life in prison still is just that, life, even though it's miserable. It's also a huge expense to the taxpayer, with no value to said taxpayer.
colormelost: exactly. Some people have faith that all executed people were indeed guilty as charged. Others do not. My stance does NOT in favor of criminals, it favors of the innocent.
Nobody denies the high cost of imprisonment, but the death penalty is even more expensive. Duke University determined that North Carolina spent 2.16 million dollars more per execution than for each life imprisonment. From an overview of many such studies, the econmist Michael Coles concludes: "Every major cost study has shown capital punishment to be more expensive than an alternative system where life-imprisonment is the maximum sentence."
We don't save money, we not infallible. Why do we have it? My guess: So a bunch of white guys out in the suburbs can feel safer at night.
pain is what we feel when one who u think is your guide is taken away from you and you are in the middle of nowhere........if everybody was to be chaerged for the killings that they have domne i think the Fuck...heads in Parliament will all die.....R.I.P Tookie..will always miss you even though we never got to meet.
hmmmm. its always perplexed me how "devote" Christians can be so judgmental and poke fun of things like this. i know youre an old dog and that you deal with things by being defensive but you really might want to think about that...
tookie was a man who did wrong in his life, as we all have and a man can have redemption even if he is a gang member. they are just my thoughts so please try not to attack me for them
