RIP Tookie
I cannot believe that the idiot that is the Governor of California denied clemency to Stanley “Tookie” Williams. I guess political suicide is in vogue right now because California is going to kick him out on his can’t-even-pronounce-the-name-of-the-state ass. Tookie was executed last night but the thing I find disturbing is that there was no mention of it on the front page of google’s news site. I found articles after doing a search but the front page is blank. I guess nobody wants to admit what fucking barbarians we are. Maybe it’s already old news and I missed the boat, ten hours can be an awful long time when we’re talking news and there are more important things to get the latest on, like how EmptyVee and Microshaft are going to offer yet another fucking music download service. Glad that one was on the front page!
Why do we still have the death penalty? When has the threat of death ever stopped a crime? Some say that executing a prisoner brings closure to the family. Bull. Shit. What a lame excuse to try to push on us. There’s no fucking closure for anyone. An eye for an eye some claim. Like the fucking bible is some sort of guide to living. People that quote the bible so that their actions are justified tend to pick and choose certain things and pretend the other stuff doesn’t exist. The incest. The murder. The drunken carousing. Fuck you and your bible, it was written by mysoginistic men. Bring me a book actually penned by a god and maybe I’ll be a little more interested. The fact is that this nation is a bunch of so-called christian savages who get a hardon thinking about putting a man to death.
Tookie was a shining example of rehabilitation but the fucking terminator decided that he had to die anyway. Look, when someone kills another person we punish them by killing them. What makes us different than a common murderer? Nothing. We’re a nation of murderers who sleep easy at night because we know that we’ll be in church on Sunday morning where God loves us. We sit and listen to some idiot that claims he is sent by God and then after the service we stand around and yank on each others dicks and talk about what wonderful people we are and then we go home and covet the neighbors wife and try to think of ways to steal cable.
I can think of a few elected (hah!) officials that hide behind the cloak of God. Maybe some of them hang out in a big white mansion when they’re not taking a vacation, organizing the killing of thousands of people is tiring after all. These evil bastards smile their political grimace-smiles and make sure that the cameras are rolling as they stroll into church. After they are done they send American citizens overseas to countries like Iraq and where they blow the shit out of innocent people and get the shit blown out of them. But that’s okay, God sanctions those murders. Murder in the name of God is fine, especially if you’re white and not a muslim.
God Bless America! I hope you all choke to death on your pretzels.

What time did you look at the news? Tookie was on other front pages earlier (8am PST) but seems to be bumped back already. The story, like the man, is dead.

I’m not sure what time I checked, maybe around 11. I just checked again and the fucking emptyvee story is on the front page TWICE. Still no sign of Tookie. You’re right, the story is dead. It seems like there was no story…
It says a lot when people care more about a stupid music subscription service then about reforming our criminal justice system. It’s not like there’s even anything good coming out of the supposedly music channel. How many suicide-blondes with terrible voices do we really need? Yeah, great, you sound like you’re singing through a glass of water, now go bitch about how people are pirating your music. Puh-leeze. At least pirates have taste.

Your right he was black and the man he killed was white. Hmmm I guess just like Timothy McVey. Er… Wait he was white and killed both white and blacks. Tookie is where he deserves to be. Life or death was his choice. He was the one who pulled the trigger.
