I don't like the death penalty...at all. However, I look at the photos of his victims...and read the autopsy reports on the older Taiwanese couple regarding their injuries.

This was ghastly.....these people were "gut shot" by a shotgun. Their kidneys and spleens had been blown to pieces. Even if this had happened in an ER in a hospital, there was no way to save them.

They were left in writhing agony...how long tho? How long did it take these poor people to die?

At least their daughter suffered a shotgun blast to the head. She died at the hospital but hopefully, she never knew what hit her... she felt no pain.

I won't even go into the other robbery and murder he commited.

Fuck, even if Tookie realized and found remorse for his crimes...even if he worked to steer others away from his deeds....

....what about those 4 people who were going about their lives...at work when this happened to them...being productive members of society.

I'm sad for Tookie...but I'm even more sad for his victims.

There is a much bigger problem in the American hands tho...I believe it is poverty...this is the womb in which born Tookie and many others have been born.

Shouldn't we all do something???
