Execution of Troy Davis Video (09.21.11)

"I am not the man" by "10.000 maniacs" - "I did not personally kill your son, father and brother. I am innocent

LYRICS
It crawls on his back, won't ever let him be.
Stares at the walls until the cinder blocks can breathe.
His eyes have gone away, escaping over time.
He rules a crowded nation inside his mind.

He knows that night like his hand.
He knows every move he made.
Late shift, the bell that rang, a time card won't fade.
10:05 his truck pulled home.
10:05 he climbed his stair, about the time he was accused of being there.

But I'm not the man.
He goes free as I wait on the row for the man
to test the rope he'll slip around my throat... and silence me.

On the day he was tried no witness testified.
Nothing but evidence, not hard to falsify.
His own confession was a prosecutor's prize,
made up of fear, of rage and of outright lies.

But I'm not the man.
He goes free as the candle vigil glows, as they burn my clothes.
As the crowd cries, "Hang him slow!" and I feel my blood go cold, he goes free.

Call out the KKK, they're wild after me.
And with that frenzied look of half-demented zeal,
they'd love to serve me up my final meal.

Who'll read my final rite and hear my last appeal?
Who struck this devil's deal?

- Requiescat in pace Troy Anthony Davis -

Giving a 12 person committee the right to decide a citizen's life makes no sense. It puts 13 killers in the courtroom.

[zippedlightning]

Society must be better than the individual. Life is God's most precious gift and He orders us not to take it. The DP is inhumane and immoral, not to mention extremely painful. Society should not give 12 people the right to decide a whether or not a fellow citizen should die. It is God's decision. Now I'm not saying killers should run free, they should be put in prison for the rest of their lives without the possibility of parole. I have no problem with paying taxes to keep the killer alive

@disneydoll63  Try Googling Channon Christian & Chris Newsome, a White Tennessee couple who were tortured & murdered by a group of 5 black POS. Why did the national media refuse to cover the Christian/Newsome story? Probably because a story of 5 black thugs who carjacked, kidnapped, gang raped, tortured & murdered a young White couple is somehow considered to be "politically incorrect". All the "political correctness" in the world couldn't save Troy Davis because the POS was guilty as Hell.

[70scarrestoguy]

Two more POS being executed today. Robert Moorman was executed in Arizona & George Rivas (leader of the Texas 7) is scheduled for 6PM. So far in 2012; Four "Whity's" & two Hispanics (after Rivas is executed tonight) have been executed. Zero black persons have been executed by the State in 2012. What happened to the argument that capital punishment AKA the White Devil's instrument, was biased against Black people?
