41. Oh please
Let's talk about all those Ken Lay executive types who ruin THOUSANDS of lives ALL THE TIME and are NEVER punished for what they do.

Should Ken Lay get the death penalty? Or only poor, black people that may, in fact be innocent, and are only charged because they aren't wealthy enough to hire competent defense?
