Damn, they're ever Executing Whitey in California

76 year old Clarence Ray Allen was executed in California today, the oldest person ever to be sent to the electric chair:

SAN QUENTIN, Calif. -- California executed its oldest death row inmate early Tuesday despite arguments from prisoner advocates that condemning a blind and wheelchair-bound inmate in his 70s violated the U.S. Constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishment.

It's not cruel or unusual to execute a blind, wheelchair bound old man, it's more unusual to execute someone with all their capabilities. It's cruel and unusual to let an unrepentant killer live, he should have been fried ages ago.

Allen went to prison for having his teenage son's 17-year-old girlfriend murdered for fear she would tell police about a grocery-store burglary. While behind bars, he tried to have witnesses in the case wiped out, prosecutors said. He was sentenced to death in 1982 for hiring a hit man who killed a witness and two bystanders.

"Allen deserves capital punishment because he was already serving a life sentence for murder when he masterminded the murders of three innocent young people and conspired to attack the heart of our criminal justice system," state prosecutor Ward Campbell said.

The death penalty is not a deterrent because they don't execute enough convicts, and they don't execute them fast enough.

Advocates against capital punishment claim that it isn't a deterrent, and they're right, it isn't. Executing every one out ten thousand murderers isn't a deterrent, it's a joke. Try executing every single murderer and then let's wait and see if that's a deterrent.

It only makes sense that if a person knows that if he is found guilty of murder that he will be executed, and within months of the trial, then that will certainly make them think twice about committing crimes like what Allen did.

Making a killer sit on death row for 12 years is a joke, Allen should have been dead long ago. He murdered three people for Christ's sake, he destroyed the lives of many people in the process. He's filth, worthless, a cancer on society. He had no right living an extra 12 years, he should have been put down like a rabid dog immediately.

There were only about 200 people gathered outside the prison gates before Allen's execution, about one-tenth of the crowd that came out last month.

Maybe if he had of been the leader of a gang that had murdered hundreds of people, wrote towards him.

Bad luck, whitey. Rest in pieces, you bag of shit.

He's no Tookie, but at least he's dead
