I’ve only posted here a couple of times before.
I am usually a rather quiet person, although I’ve seem more than my share of things that upset most rational folks.
I’m afraid this ….for brains judge has gone a bit over the edge on the ruling in the case of morales…..(no I did NOT capitalize his name here…That would show too much in the way of respect.)
There are many old sayings that come to mind, and numerous quotes, (as in Pets post).
My feelings are quite simple, direct, and quite justified, under any “Civilized” rule….

If a prospective gang member picks a victim at random, and kills him/her to satisfy an initiation requirement……should we worry about “cruel and unusual punishment”??

If a person(s) use an explosive device to kill/main “innocent” people, women, kids, fathers, sons, daughters, friends……. In a mall to show their political feelings, to, in their minds, prove a point…. . Should we worry about “cruel and unusual punishment”…..?

If a police officer saw a man “stabbing” a 17 year old girl, while attempting (or succeeding) to rape her, and shot the bastard in the groin….would that be “cruel and unusual punishment”???? Or if her FATHER saw it, and did the same, would THAT be a bad thing?????

The Great State of California, as have many others, have decided that the process of “lethal injection” is the most “humane” way to eliminate the perpetrator of a “Capital” crime……

Personally, I think the old fashioned “Firing Squad”, is preferable, for the simple reason that at least one of the “squad” is shooting a BLANK, and no one knows who has it….a way out in your head if you are a member of the squad….

In ANY case, “The Death Penalty” (in any way short of torture>>>> and Sometimes, I would allow even that)…….FITS THE CRIME!!!!!!!!!!

This mis-appointed judge should be REMOVED from the bench and forced to visit the family of the victims of such atrocities, within 24 hrs after they are killed/mutilated by
The people he is worried about, (the perpetrators)….and to be made to do so for at LEAST the next twenty or thirty such crimes committed in his jurisdiction…..
(NOT TO MENTION getting his HONEST thoughts on “What if it was HIS daughter”!!!!!!!!!

In this case…..the Governor is not only right, but should kick this jerk from here to breakfast (yea, I think he could), BEFORE removing him from the bench…………

Just the thoughts of an Honest AMERICAN

Patriot Guard Riders
These men and women attend the funeral services of fallen American heroes as invited guests of the family.They charge themselves with a mission.
1. Show our sincere respect for our fallen heroes, their families, and their communities.
2. Shield the mourning family and friends from interruptions created by any protestor or group of protestors.

“In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a
scarce man, brave, hated, and scorned. When his
cause succeeds however, the timid join him,
For then it costs nothing to be a patriot.” — Mark Twain

Drop by Blue Star Chronicles to see how you can support our American Hero’s and their families.
They fight and die to protect the freedom so many take for granted. They are true Heroes and need to always be remembered for their selflessness and sacrifice to better our world.

In a letter to California governor, Barbara Christian, Terri Winchell’s mother quotes from
Psalms 31;9-10

9 Be merciful to me, O LORD, for I am in distress;
my eyes grow weak with sorrow,
my soul and my body with grief.

10 My life is consumed by anguish
and my years by groaning;
my strength fails because of my affliction, [a]
and my bones grow weak
In effect crying out for justice and deliverance.

In a stunning act of utter stupidity a federal judge is considering whether the state’s injection protocol might be unconstitutionally cruel and unusual.

Morales’ execution is not murder, it is not the state exacting vengeance; it is the result of being tried and convicted for a crime. this is commonly called JUSTICE and it is what the jury of his peers determined to be the appropriate sentence for the torture,beating, stabbing, rape of an innocent 17-year old.
