I live in NYS. Thanks to the 'Rats and RINOs running this state, and the judges they appoint, we can't even croak unrepentant cop killers.

You think you have it bad? We have a cop killer ( Mumia abu-Jamal) WHO HAD HIS OWN RADIO SHOW WHILE HE WAS ON DEATH ROW.

From his Wikipedia entry

Since his imprisonment, Abu-Jamal continued his political activism, publishing Live from Death Row, a book on life inside prisons. He has also completed his Bachelor of Arts from Goddard College, and earned a Master of Arts from California State University, Dominguez Hills, both by distance education. Via tape from his cell he made commencement speeches to graduating classes at UC Santa Cruz, Evergreen State College, Antioch College, and Occidental College, and made frequent commentaries on radio shows. He has his own radio program that airs regularly and can be heard online at Prison Radio [16]. Mumia has been a "guest speaker" on Immortal Technique's musical albums. The organization Axis of Justice interviewed him for their weekly radio show. The magazine Vanity Fair wrote that a supporter of Mumia's, Phillip Bloch, visited him in prison and asked Abu-Jamal whether he regretted shooting a cop, to which Mumia allegedly answered "Yes." Bloch, who otherwise supported Mumia, stated he came forward after he grew concerned about the vilification of Officer Faulkner. Abu-Jamal called Bloch's story 'a rumor-turned-lie.'
