The 11th-hour halt of Kevin Cooper's execution in California was followed Tuesday by a call for a nationwide moratorium on the death penalty.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson said California's capital punishment system is flawed, and executions should be halted at the state and national levels so reforms can be devised.

Democrats have more compassion for murders than for their victims.

Hey Jesse, play Jesus and die for them that would be making a statement, and relieve us of your shakedowns.

[Conspiracy Guy]

In the democrat's mind, society killed the victim by oppressing the killer.

To that I say, poop!

Jesse Jackson seeks U.S. execution halt

No way. I say we execute him anyway. :)

Cooper was convicted in 1983 - yet Jesse used the term "rush to judgement" last week (before the stay)...what a dolt.

Here is what the Rev Jesse Jack@$$ should ask for:

The Rev. Jesse Jackson said California's capital punishment system is the country's right to choose laws are flawed, and executions abortions should be halted at the state and national levels so reforms can be devised forever.

I was going to suggest Jesse take his place too. I have never seen one man associate himself with so much scum, and corporations are still stupid enough to donate to his scam.

They should halt the execution only after they can raise the murdered victims from the dead and insure their good health.
When people are murdered only the Family seems to care about the victim.
The Murderers are made into some sick form of "Hero".
Denzel Washington is a fine exmple of the weirdos who support the murderers.

Kevin Cooper

Haven't I seen this guy somewhere before?

[drgnwrks]

I say "OK" as long as we get Jesse to volunteer to be the next. :-)

Hopefully Jackson will step in and take the murderer's place. Hopefully....
