Being that there has been a flurry of appeals lasting for over 20 years, what is your basis of opposition for claiming it is based on the fallibility of justice and law, and the inability to "take back" certain punishments, once meted.?

Are you suggesting that that Tookie is innocent?

Or are you simply saying that you oppose all death penalty sentences in general for the possability of a mistake? Are you, by extension of that, saying that lack of perfection means total failure?

Again you fell sorrow for the 'good' he would bring if he was not executed and you do not mention the good that was coming from those he killed. Again you ignore the innocent victims and decide to point out the offender is some kind of victim or that society is somehow a victim of punishing the guilty.

The shame for any good Tookie could have brought the world does not rest on those that will execute him or those that want to see it be done already. That shame lays with Tookie HIMSELF because his actions were his own choices.

Are you suggesting that that Tookie is innocent?

Not at all. I simply oppose the death penalty in general for the reasons stated. That said, there are plenty of murderers on whom I would execute myself.
