Reply #32: I don't think there is anything wrong with you at all.

I am personally opposed to the death penalty and would welcome its abolition. I also believe, as you do(?), that this is the wrong guy to make a stand over. His 'children's series' has sold a grand total of less than 400 copies, so it's not like he is really making any difference. He is just a vicious thug that got busted and doesn't want to pay the price for his heinous acts, so he got some dumb-ass celebrities to take up his cause, instead of an innocent, though unknown, convict on death row ala Gov. George Ryan after a group of law students made an investigation. I lived through the Bloods/Crips decade and there is nothing redeeming about them at all, nor where they 'victims' of their environment, the economy, whitey, or whatever crap they try to use to mitigate their actions. They slaughtered their own neighbors more often than each other, and did more to destroy their communities that the cops ever could. Hell he even tried to exploit the celebrity status they achieved through their thuggery to set up franchise operations in other cities around the country. How many innocent black kids were gunned down in the early days for carrying the wrong color of bandanna in the wrong neighborhood?
The death penalty is wrong and should be abolished, but if we are going to have it, this is exactly who it's for.
