i honestly think he can do more good alive than dead, when he is dead all it will do is fade faith in people who looked up to him. Faith that these people look towards to stay stright and avoid crime.

What you don't understand is that I and countless others beleive this whole thing is a sham. If you were on death row and you knew you had a chacne to live by writing some books, you know sure as hell you would.
The fact is i dont want to grant clemcny to a murder, and then have to pay 60k a year to keep him in jail. Based on his use and logic. The 60k we spend to keep him alive can be put to use to actually stop gangs and violence. He serves no good whatsoever alive.
