On December 13th 2005, Stan Tookie Williams will be excuted.
QUOTE Stan was the co-founder in 1971 of the Los Angeles Crips gang. In 1981 he was convicted of murdering four people during two robberies and sentenced to death row at San Quentin State Prison. Stan deeply regrets his gang involvement but has always maintained his innocence of these crimes. Stanley "Tookie" Williams receives no money for having written the Tookie Speaks Out series and Life in Prison. He is donating proceeds to several non-profit organizations, including Mothers Against Gang Wars, located in South Central Los Angeles, California. All donations and grants given to The Institute For Prevention Of Youth Violence, a nonprofit entity, will go toward funding a diverse group of programs that will assist children in becoming responsible, successful and self-confident people. My question is - Should Governor Schwarzenegger grant him clemency? In what situation should the Governor grant clemency? ------------ If your interested, here's a site dedicated to saving Tookie. http://www.savetookie.org/index.html |

QUOTE(Tribal J_Rome @ Dec 14 2005, 11:57 PM) ^well why don't u go to jail for 20+ years and see if u actually enjoy it. nobody wants to be in there, nobody chooses to be in prison. yah u get all that fun stuff u just listed but only one thing that isn't present makes it all hell: freedom.  ... Nobody chooses to be in prison? Hello, nobody chooses to get shot and killed either! I'm sure prison isn't an enjoyable place, but it is NOT Hell either. However, the only thing these f**king cold blooded killers deserve IS HELL or something very close to it. Are you telling me that Tookie didn't know that shooting folks in the back mulitiple times can kill them? When you kill that many people, freedom should be the last thing you worry about.

I'm not getting the point? It was a robbery, take the damn things and LEAVE! Don't shoot people!!! Actually, a better way not to get caught is not to have gone robbing honest folks. What is there not to get? Are you telling me that Tookie was dumb and didn't know shooting folks will get him jailed and punished? Or maybe you're telling me that Tookie didn't know that shooting folks can actually kill them? |

QUOTE(EndlessSite @ Dec 14 2005, 1:25 PM) Didn't think so. Tookie was raised in a neighborhood where people beat other people, possibly for fun. If he was taught to do that to survive then so be it, form of self defense. Man, dude killed 4 people over 120 dollars. Then proceded to call the dead asians "Buddha Heads".
