September 23, 2011 By fake-consultant

I don’t feel very good about this country this morning, and as so many of us are I’m thinking of how Troy Davis was hustled off this mortal coil by the State of Georgia without a lot of thought of what it means to execute the … [Read more...]

Abolish the Death Penalty in the United States

September 22, 2011 By liveandletlive

After the state-sanctioned murder of Troy Davis, it's clear that when states are given the freedom to maintain the death penalty they do not use it with the great care and discernment it should be afforded. We cannot be a country that … [Read more...]

Give Troy Davis a new trial.

September 18, 2011 By liveandletlive

How much time have you spent in #Cambridge, Massachusetts? If I had not commented on the Sayed Faisal case, would you have done it? Be honest, @rasheednwalters. #mapoli

Rasheed N. Walters @rasheednwalters

In the People’s Republic of #CambridgeMA politicians, comrade citizens, and far left activists expect a officer to not defend themselves against a man charging at them with a Kukri Knife which is akin to a machete. These people are insane! They all wanted that officer to die!
