Twain's Texas Death Watch

I said I would talk only about cases which might claim your sympathy. I don't know if I can hold to that, so I am making this thread to post news about executions in Texas (The justice of which any fair minded person must be skeptical of.

Although Steven Woods was slain crying murder, Duane Buck got a stay of execution, as his victims begged.

Texas plans to kill two more people in the next two days. One, Lawrence Russell Brewer, due to be killed Wednesday, September 21, 2011 at 6:00 pm, I would not ask anyone to sympathize with unless they are opposed to executions in principle, as I am, especially since Troy Davis, who I believe is "not guilty beyond a reasonable doubt" is scheduled to be slain in Georgia the same day.

The other man Perry intends to sacrifice to his political ambitions is Cleve 'Sarge' Foster, whose execution is set for TODAY Tuesday, September 20, 2011 at 6:00 pm, Texas, the third date set for Foster.
Execution Watch taped an interview with Foster. If put to death, the tape will air.
For those who need a reason...
1. another man has since confessed to the murder.
2. An unfair trial. His state appointed attorney was paid $500, and Foster says "treated him like a dog".
3. He is to be killed with an untested drug, like a dog in a lab
4. I like dogs

Please call
Board of Pardons/Paroles (001-) 512-406-5852
Perry's Office 512-463-2000


Then a month before Perry plans to kill again. Remember, this man wants to be President. I am skeptical about the advisability of that.
