Boudicca 702 Posted December 12, 2005 Ironic, really, that the one person who can save Williams is The Governator, whose fame, money and political career are all thanks to a series of movies in which he regularly killed loads of people with an armoury of automatic weapons. Fingers crossed Tookie! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banshees Scream 110 Posted December 12, 2005 Ironic, really, that the one person who can save Williams is The Governator, whose fame, money and political career are all thanks to a series of movies in which he regularly killed loads of people with an armoury of automatic weapons. Fingers crossed Tookie! Rumor has it Arnold may run for president some day? But would that be a good idea since he was infact Terminator? Sometimes people compare him to Ronald Reagon who started out as a actor but later morphed into his political career. Even though I can't really recall any of the movies Reagon made I doubt he was anything similar to the Terminator. And yes Tookie keep those fingers behind your back crossed* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banshees Scream 110 Posted December 12, 2005 A Johnny Cash serenade for Tookie http://maninblack.net/lyrics/25%20MINUTES%20TO%20GO.htm For a breif second it reminded me of the Ramones song "Sedated" but I suppose Tookie doesn't have 24 hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tomb raider 9 Posted December 13, 2005 I'm not supportive of the death penalty an sich, but it's the law in his country. The guy has had 24 years of trials and appeals to prove his innocence. He clearly failed to do so, so why Arnie should have granted him clemency is beyond me. All those convicted criminals in search of a parole 'bettered their lives', 'found Christ' and 'wish to do good for the community'. Yeah right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempus Fugit 214 Posted December 14, 2005 According to this article it looks like Tookie had been all but forgotten by todays gangbangers. Tookie desereves no sympathy, it's easy to repent from Death Row, would he have done so if free? I doubt it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Save Tookie Posted March 21, 2006 Here is one man that the gooberment should have hired. He had the power to help us get rid of the cockroach problem in america. What a shame Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brinsworth House Baiter 12 Posted March 22, 2006 Here is one man that the gooberment should have hired. He had the power to help us get rid of the cockroach problem in america. What a shame 'Save Tookie'...ah, behold the power that is the posthumous protest group. I wonder if this guest poster is also wearing a 'Free Nelson Mandela' tee-shirt whilst attempting to save the Thames whale? And I just love 'gooberment'...I think it lends itself wonderfully to Tony Blair's premiership. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder if this guest poster is also wearing a 'Free Nelson Mandela' tee-shirt whilst attempting to save the Thames whale? And I just love 'gooberment'...I think it lends itself wonderfully to Tony Blair's premiership. I'm still shocked Nelson Mandela was released. Our kids are now taught that he was a great man, a hero etc, etc. The school text-books and the liberal elite of this country airbrush out the fact that he was a terrorist. Seeing Mandela and president of South Africa was as bad as it would be to see Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness in charge of a united Ireland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrunoBrimley 86 Posted March 22, 2006 Forutnately the U.S. of A. has smart and dedicated men in power who don't take no guff from anybody. Don't believe me? You saw what happened when Bad Boy Whittington messed with Dick Cheney. Tookie is dead as a ducat (or at least as dead as he should be) and the message that will be received throughout the hills and valleys and across the lakes and rivers and through the dales and dells and in the cities and up and down the countryside is that once you kill people with ruthless disregard you too will meet death face to face and it doesn't matter how much of a goody two shoes you tried to be once you were sent off to prison. Sure Whumpi Goldblathererberg and Babbsy Streisand along with other neo-liberals will claim he was victimized by society. That is such a load of horse.... that it doesn't even resemble imitative imitational imaginary imitation truth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
