Justice maybe served! Hopefully - there wont be any last minute appeals.

What I'm saying CD is that they have Hoover (leader of GD or Folks) in prison too. I'm sure they may have him on some related/similar charges. Do he get executed too?cat daddy said:Tookie is not executed for starting a gang.
You wanna bet. Look at every article, editorial, and TV report you see. Every title will start, "Co-founder of the Crips", "Gang-Boss", "Leader of the notorious murdering Crips." and so on and so on. That cat has a snowball chance in hell of being granted clemency, whether he deserved it or not. Nobody wants to be the guy who let the "King Crip" get off.cat daddy said:Tookie is not executed for starting a gang.

JR said:Beans, you know it depends on who and how you kill. If Tookie had killed a bunch of us, he would not be on death row. Heck he may still walking the street. I always have said this. Whether Tookie is innocent, I don't know. We all know the system is set up for the wealthy to work around it. More than likely he has probably killed a bunch of his own black people and got away with it. But killing the Asian family punched his ticket.
I am for the death penalty for heinous crimes. I just hope that the judicial system does a fair analysis of the evidence before carrying out the sentence on individuals convicted of those type of crimes .
As far as deterring crimes. Not having the death penalty aint going to help it either. I am willing to bet the number of murders would increase if there was no death penalty in those states.

]JSU/99 said:Let me first say that I'm 100% OPPOSED to the Death Penalty. I believe it is morally wrong. If I was governor, I would do like George Ryan and commute every death sentence to life w/o parole.
However If we're going to have the death penalty, then once all the appeals have been exhausted, it needs to be carried out. Redemption cannot and should not save you from death row. There is God's law and man's law. In the legal system we follow man's law. Once man deems you no longer fit to live, then that's final. Any good works on your part should be done with the intention of saving your soul. You ass belongs to the state.
Don't you just love our wonderful barbaric country?![]()

"The Crips were already well established when Tookie came on the scene," said retired Los Angeles County Sheriff's Sgt. and gang expert Wes McBride.
"There's not a whole lot of difference between the Crips of today and the Crips of yesteryear, only there's more of them," McBride said. "They are more involved in narcotics trafficking than they used to be, but Crips will do whatever they can to make money. Bank robberies, armored car robberies."
"Their legacy is that they've helped destroy the black community," McBride said. "Gangs kill communities just as surely as they kill people."
