Yes, Laci's Mom is quite an emotional, passionate and eloquent lady. Her statements have always pulled at my heart.

Well, you can't officially have a name unless you have a birth certificate. And you can't have a birth certificate if you haven't been born. So, I guess technically, "fetus" is the proper term in this case.

All of your logic is immaterial as we are dealing with feminist word games here. Per feminists, a baby is a baby only if it's mother wants it. If the mother does not want the baby, it is a lump of cells and called a fetus.

I agree, he won't die in CA... But he'll be busy for a while and that is fine with me :)

Got too cocky and thought he was too smart...

Jackie & Lee Peterson BOTH interruped Brent Rocha during his testimony....Lee said "What a liar!" when Brent was talking about Scott and how he was unhappy etc...Jackie said "That's not true!" They left the courtroom 'FURIOUS'....Scott Peterson was shackled at the waist during the court proceedings today.

Well, you can't officially have a name unless you have a birth certificate.
One needn't be born to have a name:
Be bloody, bold, and resolute; laugh to scorn
The power of man, for none of woman born
Shall harm Macbeth. (Macbeth, Act 4, Scene 1)

. . .

Despair thy charm;
And let the angel whom thou still hast served
Tell thee, Macduff was from his mother's womb
Untimely ripp'd. (Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 8)

Connor was found outside Lacy's womb, albeit with the cord attached, presumably, like Macduff, untimely ripp'd.

Bonner, or Bonyers? Guy who raped 14 boys and killed most of them. Execution in 1994 or 95. I was there at San Quentin amongst the protestors, handing out tracts.

The judge did NOT allow Scott Petersons parents to testify....this according to the AP. Scott Peterson was in a suit and had the same "swagger" according to MSNBC.

The last person executed in California was Donald Beardslee on January 19 of this year, a little less than 21 years after being sentenced to death. He was the first person to be executed in California in almost three full years.

I like that. Boy, I wish I could shape reality and the laws of logic in daily life. Sometimes it would be convenient if 2 + 2 = 10.

LOL, I guess all those children in the Bible and throughout history didn't "officially" have a name.
