Mississippi R .Gov. Haley Barbour Pardons Murderers

One of the things I heard from Barbour during an interview after the news broke was that he wanted to pardon these people[some very violent offenders} so they could buy guns and go hunting ,does this sound nuts to anyone else?

The sad thing is that in an interview Barbour actually smiles and said "I don't know what the big fuss is about".

Barbour you are a moron. You are a disgrace to the office you held, you are what is wrong about our system. There should be laws that punish the likes of you. When you get to hell, and for your callousness may your soul burn for eternity and may you for always feel the pain you have brought upon the victim's families.

if your going to pardon people it should only be non violent drug offenders not murderers

@XDPunisher I thought thats what pardons were for,or for those legitamtly found not guilty.

I thought ALL the crooks were Democrats (pelosi & Reid etc) I am wondering how much money Haley put in his SWISS Bank account for these pardons- It is an accepted practice for crooked politicians to pardon criminals and collect the money in a Swiss bank (untraceable) account- Clinton pardoned alotta people before leaving office- I am sure the trllionare Mark Rich paid alot and so did the dozens of other drug dealers stc that Clinton pardoned- How many will Obama pardon before he leaves office?

You know the first thing that popped into my head when I watched this? Is Gov. Haley Barbour being coerced? Is he being persuaded to follow this unbelievable course of action because of threats or force? Is he releasing a large number of inmates to cover and mask an individual ? Why would he refuse to comment? His actions are so bizarre that I feel there has to be something behind this curtain of insanity. Is his life or more to the point, members of his family being threatened?

Just in case you are wondering how backwards Mississippi is, as our governor just pardoned 208 people (murders, robbers, rapist) so far, we have Canadian Marc Emery sitting in Yazoo City pen for selling Marijuana seeds; which is not illegal in Canada, and who has never harmed one single individual.
