No, don't sell anything, just stand across the street from the viewing and memorial with large, blown up photos of the victims. Even the media couldn't ignore that.
agreed
Just make sure they are the crime scene photos of the victims.
P$ss on tookie.
"Peacemaker"(PC code for Evil is good) Tookie should've started out in life as a peace maker and not a dismemberment taker.
These people mock life, they mock God, thusly they mock their own existance, pitiful as it is.
That depends. Is Tookie's coffin below navel level?
I think they mean "piece of sh!t"
Stanley Tookie Williams’ Public Viewing
---I thought they were going to send his a$$ to Africa to be buried? What the hell is that animal still doing on American soil? As far as viewing a killers dead body, I viewed his victims pictures and gave THEM my respect. He deserves nothing. Let's hurry these media whores through their 5 minutes of self promoting glory and bury this murderer. It's old news. Decent people don't care.
