Hey PA - read this!!! Maybe we can change some of our laws and get on the ball and execute some of our criminals. They're useless and don't deserve the luxuries of prison with MY TAX MONEY!

Boo Hoo, take your bleeding liberal heart and go away. Revenge is sweet and cold blooded killers deserve to die!!!!!! People shouldn't kill other people in crimes. Sympathy for victim's and their families. Death to murderers!!!!

In California I believe I last heard we have over 600 death row inmates awaitng execution with the average time from conviction to completion of appeals within our Liberal Supreme Court System taking about 25+ years. A lot of those on death row will either die of old age or eventually need expensive special medical care generally provided to senior citizens. We need an EXPRESS LANE similar to Texas to cleasr out these turds!!

Killers kill people, people should kill killers. I think if you are one of the people who believes every life is precious and that you should have to keep the the scum alive. Keep em alive at their house.

I agree with you !!
Kill them all, maybe make them think before they commit a crime.
Why should we the taxpayers support them ??

I would have no problem doing it.

TEXAS is setting an example that more states should follow. we spend way too much keeping these !@#$% alive! and for what? california needs to do this badly, there are way too many sex offenders walking around that should be locked up(at very least). especially around santa cruz, fortunatly for me i live in the hills away from the bulk of them. anyway, i have some good friends, mossberg, ruger, smith & wesson...maybe you've heard of 'em.

an eye for an eye.
one of the reasons crime/murder whatever is skyrocketing her in calif is cuz the criminals know that they won't get the death penalty and if they do they sit on death row for years and years and years. then in prison they run the place anyway. appeal appeal appeal...i say kill em. i'm tired of my money supporting criminals. i would rather my money go to my local pantry, or something actually helping someone.
oh better yet, instead of the death penalty anywhere don't seperate all the gangs from each other just put them all in general population... murders, rapists, pedophiles, gang bangers, thieves...put them all in surround them by a big *** fence and let them go.

12 in 6 weeks?? Thats not nearly enough. What we need is an EXPRESS LANE, so the taxpayers don't have to feed and educate them for 10-20 years on death row. "Guilty, Now get on the bus and roll up your sleeves". The people they kill, whether they are 8 years old or 80, NEVER get a lot of time to think about life and how it should have, could have been. Just a matter of seconds and their life is gone. At Least the criminal gets a chance to LIVE. He has 12 people deciding whether or not he dies and that is a lot more time and consideration than his victims had.

My feelings exactly. Lets electricute the child killers first. I have never understood this. If the person is guilty, take him in the next room immediately, shoot his A** and call out Next?
Televise it for entertainment! Show the wanna be killers that the death penalty REALLY happens.

Thats fine all you killers but the thing is ,Texas can't be trusted . We don't know if these people are really guilty of the crimes with the good ole kkk sitting on most juries outside of el paso. Plus most of these people are born again christians so this is not going to sit good with Jesus. Maybe thats why our beloved Cowboys have lost their last two games.

Aw come on Gaser. I know you can't believe that GOD, Jesus really has anything to do with the path in life that these low-life criminals take. Why would God let some one murder a 4 months old baby, a 7 year old girl, three little kids in one family??? If anyone other then these low-lifes is responsible for what they do, besides THEMSELVES , then maybe we could just say "The devil made them do it". How could anyone murder a baby, a Mom, Dad, Girl friend, innocent robbery victim??? You think maybe it's just because they are too MEAN to live in OUR society and WE have to "take them out"?? A life for a life. You take a life WITHOUT reason, you lose your life. Simple to the point.

Daily Horoscope for December 26

Cancer

Mercury turning retro is offering you the chance to make sweeping and long-lasting changes to your life, and to clear the ground for some fertile growth in 2010. Lawyers and legal matters, debates, contract negotiations, partnership or other alliances, and joint ventures of any kind need attention. As a Cancerian you don't like endings, but you must now bring an end to any situation or relationship that is holding you back or has passed its sell-by date. Look forward, not back, if you want a glittering future.
