Found this interesting: List of folks on death row in Texas

I know those stats didn't surprise you, did they???

A lot of those people did some fucced up sh*t, man.

I think that being pro-death penalty and anti-**** is a little contradictory, dont ya think?

not at all. i'm against destroying an innocent individual who hasn't even had the chance to live. but not against ending the life of someone who had a chance to do right; but forfeited it.

But what about the wrongly accused? What about the fact that our justice system is inconsistant? What about those who realize they've done wrong and want to change?? Just something to think about sweetheart.

Woman Executed for Texas Family Slayings By MICHAEL GRACZYK, Associated Press Writer 1 hour, 11 minutes ago HUNTSVILLE, Texas - Frances Newton was executed Wednesday for the fatal shootings of her husband and two children 18 years ago, becoming the third woman, and first black woman, to be put to death in the state Strapped to the death chamber gurney and with her parents among the people watching, she declined to make a final statement, quietly saying "no" and shaking her head when the warden asked if she would like to speak. Newton briefly turned her head to look at her family as the **** began flowing. She appeared to try to mouth something to her relatives, but the **** took effect. She coughed once and gasped as her eyes closed. She was pronounced **** eight minutes later. One of her sisters stood against a wall at the rear of the death house, her head buried in her arms. Her parents held hands and her mother brushed away a tear before they walked to the back of the chamber to console their other daughter. About three dozen demonstrators chanted outside but the crowd paled in comparison to the hundreds who gathered in 1998 to protest the execution of Karla Faye Tucker, the first woman executed in Texas since the Civil War.
