| Tookie's toast |
| 2005-12-12 |
| Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger announced today that he would not grant clemency to Stanley Williams, whose bid to avoid execution after midnight tonight has gained wide attention. Mr. Schwarzenegger's decision not to halt Mr. Williams' execution by injection at 12:01 a.m. Tuesday is his third rejection of a petition for a stay of execution or clemency since taking office in 2003. Clemency has not been granted to a death row inmate in California since 1967. |

| #15 They said on Fox that Jesse's almost begging Tookie for permission to be one of his "witnesses"... Somebody needs to tell him there won't be any blood to smear on his shirt, this time... |

| #14 I'd be willing to give him clemency, on one condition: Jesse Jackass takes his place for the lethal injection. Otherwise, continue on. |

| #11 the NAACP and Jesse were all up in arms - we had blacks protesting (10-20 or so) in Downtown SD today. Don't they realize the tragedy, death, pain, and suffering this bag of crap and his gang unleashed upon his own people? Jeebus! Some people should just STFU |

| #10 The MSM radio people really pissed me off about this. They were discussing Tookie's case and referred to him as a "Reformed ex-gang member." What they needed to say that he was the founder of the Crips gang, a convicted murderer of four people, and has lost numerous appeals in 20+ years. He has made efforts to stop people from getting into gangs and had written some children's books in prison. Tookie committed cold-blooded murder and four people were denied their life, liberty, and their pursuit of happiness. He needs to pay for his crimes by execution by the State, and this tragic chapter in history can be closed. |

| #6 Too bad they can't start with a couple of saline solution injections to boost the suspense a little. Then follow up with a dozen CCs worth of battery acid directly into the aorta for entertainment value. |

| #4 Yea, but Tookie wrote children's book on toilet paper. I'll take my toast slightly buttered, thank you. Don't forget to flush the crispy critter. |
