RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Posthumous pardons were granted Tuesday to seven Black men who were executed in 1951 for the rape of a white woman, in a case that attracted pleas for mercy from around the world and in recent years has been denounced as an example of racial disparity in the use of the death penalty.
Execution is this week’s programme topic and it’s pretty hardcore – horrific in fact.
We’re going to cover this topic from many different angles including Trump’s insane rush to put to death as many people as possible before leaving office!
Our introduction is fifteen minutes with an executioner, who may surprise you with his candidness and laissez-faire attitude.
We’ll also interview the guest documentarian who interviewed this fat fuck.
TRUMPERS headed to D.C. last week and left no doubt that U.S. stupidity is alive and well. Hopefully, Darwinian theory will prevail and racism will die a horrible death.
The recent spate of attacks on police forces in the U.S. can be easily attributed to the public’s acceptance of the American S.W.A.T. team so many years ago. Since their initial appearance, those same costumes, weapons, etc. are being seen more and more on the streets without a second thought under the guise of “gotta be ready for them terrorists” bullshit.
Moreover, the returning SOLDIERS who leave the military for whatever reason sometimes find themselves jobs as “security” personnel, sowing overkill (sic) on the unsuspecting CITIZEN.
Bringing the war mentality to the American PUBLIC is now the new normal. SHOOT first, ask questions later. JUST in case.
The balance of power.
It’s no wonder the appropriate response, decades later, comes as BLACK MILITARY personnel push back against the racist cops a-la-Malcolm X and Black Panthers. Further escalation is expected.
You can only fuck with people to a certain extent before they will call you on it and kill your sorry ass.
Unfortunately, the police actually BELIEVE they are somehow protected by the magic law and order fairy. I spoke with one cop who was wearing a bullet-proof vest. So I asked him “what if they shoot you in the head?” No answer.
Don’t let the Republicans steal YOUR COUNTRY FROM YOU, again !!!
The residents of Broward County, Florida have recently received misleading robocalls telling them that they can vote by phone on Election Day, according to a report in the South Florida Sun-Sentinel on Friday.
Here in America, people just love their guns. To celebrate our love of guns, we have built countless facilities across the nation in which gun hobbyists are allowed to shoot their guns. Folks here take the Second Amendment very seriously. We take it so seriously, in fact, that we have our very own special club for people who love guns. This very special club for people who love guns is called the National Rifle Association, or the NRA. Read the rest of this entry »
I am a great fan of Time magazine. I think that this particular periodical exudesclass. An example of Time’s high caliber can be seen on the cover of the May 19, 2008 USA issue. The words, “And The Winner* Is…” are displayed next to a photograph of a smiling Senator Barack Obama.
Just below his cheesy grin, in much smaller print, are the words, “*Really, we’re pretty sure this time.” I laughed when first I saw this. I am laughing still. I just love journalistic humor.
The push for privatization is not limited to Wisconsin. In Texas, defense contractor Lockheed Martin, along with IBM, plans to submit a bid in hopes of snaring the contract for the entire state system, a contract worth 2 to 3 billion dollars. Electronic Data Systems, along with Unisys, and Andersen Consulting, are also submitting bids. Read the rest of this entry »
"The greatest evil is not done in those sordid dens of evil that Dickens loved to paint ... but is conceived and ordered ( moved, seconded carried and minuted ) in clear, carpeted, warmed, well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voices"
-- C.S. Lewis [1898-1963]

I believe that we should not have a single homeless person in the richest country in the world. And I believe that we should not have a C.I.A. that goes around overwhelming governments and assassinating political leaders, working for tight oligarchies around the world to protect the tight oligarchy here at home."
