No need for Reasonable Doubt

Freepers are ritually stoked about Troy Davis receiving the death penalty. With a twenty year old case, I guess they can't work up their usual glee, but they still have their grim determination to kill, right or wrong. Also, as the NAACP is involved, get ready for racism!

tupac and just about everyone else on the thread are sure this guy is guilty, cause Ann Coulter says so. Hooray, bias!
We agree on that, Ann Coulter knows how to clear it up and make sense. Guilty! Thanks Ann.
I clicked through and her article has numbers I can't find anywhere else. Like 37 eyewitnesses.

Our man in washington is hilarious!

I am disgusted that we put Troy Davis to death tonight.

We should have done it in 1989.

Sarah Barracuda and a number of other freepers think this orchestrated to cause riots:

With liberals its ALWAYS about race, they use it to their advantage so they can have riots, etc..but they don’t give a damn about the black community at all, they just use them for their own agenda. Liberals hate cops so to them what Davis did was a good thing. They see the police as the enemy, they are truly despicable pieces of scum.

bluerose wonders where the white women at:

Disgusting. I see the black loving Kardashian sisters are siding with Davis.

dools0007world has some interesting analysis:

I believe the manic behavior of these anti-death penalty freaks is a subconscious reaction to their pro-abortion zealatry.

politicalmerc brings in the vigilante justice angle:
We here in Atlanta insure the wanna-be Africans who are really Americans that want to tear something up keep that conduct in the West-end ie they get to tear up their own neighbourhoods if they want and then no body will notice.
Happy Rain knows the Death Penalty is needed for civilization:

Only a truly civilized and virtuous society has the moral authority to expect it’s people to obey the law and to expect as well the ultimate justice for violating the ultimate law.
Societies without Capital Punishment or fail to use Capital Punishment in an effective way degenerate.

Europe: degenerate. China has some hope, though.

BO Stinkss had better be trolling.

Even if he didn’t do it, he was guilty of something.

  2. His execution is outrageous!! If my work schedule wasn't so busy performing live birth abortions, I would right beside my fellow comrades protesting this act of heinous "state sanctioned murder" of an individual......

  3. @Barry,
    Pointing out inconsistencies of the other side doesn't mean your side doesn't have any. And at least our side has the decency to not cheer when someone brings up how many abortions they've performed.

    How is being pro-choice and anti-death penalty "inconsistent"? One is allowing a person freedom to make informed choices regarding their own bodies and one is state-sanctioned murder. I'm sure Barry would back me up on this, being so anti-government and all...

  5. @Anonymous,
    Yeah, you're right, I was just trying to be diplomatic, since anti-choicers see abortion as murder. Not that my efforts would be appreciated, of course.

  6. It depends on what your definition of murder is of course.....A convicted cop killer growing old on death row, after many appeals and reviews of evidence, gets a painless lethal injection and liberals are outraged. These same liberals have absolutely zero compassion or empathy for babies being dismembered while conscious and in fact will vehemently defend the procedure even though the baby's only crime is existing at all. Liberals always the ideological hypocrites....

  7. @Barry,
    We're not outraged over the way he died (although most of us object to the death penalty in general regardless of guilt or innocence) but the fact that he may be innocent of the charges. And how do you know what the prisoner or fetus (not baby) feels?

    ReplyDelete
  8. If you are interested in how a baby/fetus feels, lets not ask Kathleen Sebelius who accepted many tens of thousands of campaign contribution dollars from the now deceased late term abortionist George Tiller (and accidentally forgot to declare it). You need to re-review the late term abortion procedure and your fetus versus baby comment will clarify itself...... But then we did previously mention that your old entry level ACORN job was standing in dumpsters behind abortion clinics beating the discarded fetus/babies to be sure they were dead.... The sad hypcorisy here is that if I as a physician do a procedure or prescribe a medication that injures a woman's unborn child I am made responsible for hurting her unborn child, but an abortionist can late term breach deliver it, and stick a probe in it's head and suck the brains out before the head is delivered and he killed it without consequences... Remember liberals don't view abortion as a choice to them it's an industry....

  9. @Barry,
    Yeah, I notice you didn't provide any actual evidence, instead choosing ad hominem attacks once again. Nor do you back up anything you say with anything other than right-wing propaganda.

  10. What part is incorrect?? It may conflict phillosophically with your beliefs but it is factually accurate.... Sebilus was just another liar and tax cheat that Obama chose for his cabinet despite all that rhetoric about "Change" that you swallowed hook, line and sinker... look it up yourself.... just because you refuse to research something doesn't make it not so....... live birth abortions are still performed, look it up.... try and educate yourself and stop being a mindless party trog and take a trip off the lberal democrat plantation once in a while, you'll be suprised at what you'll learn....

  11. Heh. The abortion argument.

    When does life begin? I say we let the Federal Government decide!
    But not exactly decide, cause then we'd put the mothers in jail as well. So just kinda decide.

    But it's not about punishing pregnant people, it's about saving lives I tells ya! Ignore the inconsistencies!

  12. @Barry,
    Once again, you're massively projecting. You're the one posting wingnut propaganda in order to try (and fail) to convince me of your argument. You're the one who is constantly spewing Republican teabagger talking points. I simply pointed out that both sides could be seen as being inconsistent and you went ballistic.

    ReplyDelete
  13. When it comes to the death penalty just like with abortion, the people decide what they want. The people voted for the death penalty so they are terminating (to use the abortionist word) a person who deliberately chose to take someones life despite the known consequences and after years of appeals and reviews.... there is no question that he did it....

  14. @Ozy,
    Exactly, wingnuts like Barry never want to have a real debate, they just want to bully people into believing them and encoding their religious beliefs into law.

  15. @Barry,
    But there is a question. However, even if there weren't, we're still against the death penalty, even in the case of that white man in Texas who killed the black guy by dragging him behind his truck.

  16. Alas, your argument works in a direct democracy, but we live in a Constitutional Republic. There are some things the people are not allowed to decide - the question is which things

    As to the no question he did it, I'm finding only Ann Counter and those who choose her as their only source of info think that. No forensics, and 7 our of nine recantations? You may be letting your eagerness to champion the death penalty in all cases to cloud your judgment about this individual case.

    Having some innocent dudes get killed is part of the price society pays for having a death penalty. It's just inevitable in an imperfect judicial system.

  17. Wow Obama you're a lot meaner and crazier in your comments than you are on tv. I didn't know you were a doctor, reassuring to know we're in good hands with Obamacare.

    ReplyDelete
  18. @Ozi.... the other side of the coin of course is that murderers get away with it and likely many times... no system is perfect

    ReplyDelete
  19. @kidglov3: You can rest assured that I promise to run Obamacare as efficiently as the Post Office and the Military....

  20. @Barry,
    You said it, no system is perfect. So why make the punishment irreversible?

    ReplyDelete
  21. euphgeek, please at least try to keep up...a few people may slip through the cracks at both ends but you are saying that the system is so flawed that it can't get anything right and we should default to the least severe punishment?? You really believe the American justice system is that flawed that it can't figure out most of the time who is guilty and who isn't?? Guilty people get off all the time but truely guilty people are convicted far more than innocent people.... You defend the muslims with all your might (because you feel that you can bring them under the liberal umbrella of "oppressed minorities") but they have far harsher laws and carried out far swifter...... You really need more medication, start doubling your dose, you need to realise that there are people out there so broken that you or the other cry baby liberals can't fix and they need to be brought to justice and killing people shouldn't entitle you to a life supported by the tax payers

    ReplyDelete
  22. So you feel that a few dead innocent people is a small price to pay for having the death penalty, eh?

    Though noting that Sharia law has the death penalty may not be that good an argument for it being awesome in America.

    As to the idea that prison is "a life supported by taxpayers," well, then lets just kill everyone, if prison is too awesome to be a good punishment.

    ReplyDelete
  23. @Barry,
    Your endless supply of strawman arguments and ad hominems aside, how is life in prison without the possibility of parole the "least severe punishment?" Doesn't that prevent them from committing crimes just as effectively as the death penalty without the barbarism of "an eye for an eye?"

    ReplyDelete
  24. 1. Because the choice is death or freedom! If only there were some third way...

    2. I have Muslim friends, and they don't seem to want sharia law at all. In fact, I've seen no evidence this is true (Sharia-based contracts don't count). Maybe some do, but Muslims are like 1% of the population - I don't think the Republic is in danger.

    3. Well, if US jails are better than China's jails I guess they must be like a vacation!

  25. To add to what Ozy said, liberals have been working against conservative Christian beliefs being enshrined into law. Do you really think we'd support Sharia law? Answer: no, we wouldn't.
