Ghost of BiB Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Took, Took Tookie, don't cry... Some of his own recent statements, and actions other than writing "Children's Books" and preaching "Non-Violence" (which, BTW is sort of easy to do once you get caught and are sitting on death row) are at the very least, suspect. I hope California behaves itself. Thank you media, Jesse, and everyone for blowing this out of proportion. If, God forbid there be a violent backlash, I'm sure it will be because a guy who shot a face down man twice in the back with a shotgun, for no real reason, then went on to kill another three for less than a hundred dollars, once in prison, said "Oh, I'm a good guy now!" Go meet up with Carla Faye, and swap stories. Bet y'all have some good ones.

Society is to blame.
X. Benedict Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Free Barabas 530227[/snapback] I always wondered if he had survivor guilt.
KD in CA Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I always wondered if he had survivor guilt. 530254[/snapback] That's funny!

I think they both should have been granted clemency.......but, that's just me. 530234[/snapback] Carla Faye...maybe, since she's demonstrably sick. Tookie? A gang-banger who killed four people, then became a "'Praise The Lord' Mother!@#$er" (my sister's - the defense attorney - name for prison conversions) on death row? Because...?
Crap Throwing Monkey Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 As far as I know Charlie hasn't tried to redeem himself. 530259[/snapback] He's tried very hard, actually. The parole board just has a hard time seeing past the swastikas carved into his forehead.

You ever think about the people they killed, and the impact that had on the lives of those who loved them, and counted on them? I can write Children's Books (with a co-author..for a children's book?) Especially while in prison. Were it your family, what would you think then? TV makes it all someone else. Until it happens to us.
Corp000085 Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I'll sleep better knowing that this killer has been physically removed from the earth... This whole publicity thing is great though. it will provide days of sidesplitting soundbytes by black moviestars and the baldwins for days!!

Just a guess after reading some books on the Crips. 530269[/snapback] I think it's possible. I also think it's rare. I also think "I'm a changed man, and see now that I deserve to be punished for what I did" is probably a lot more sincere than "I'm a changed man, don't hurt me." My sister, though, who has a lot of experience with these 'Praise the Lord' Mother!@#$ers, thinks otherwise. And she's on their side.
X. Benedict Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Alas, he's probably killed more than 4 people. Just a guess after reading some books on the Crips. 530269[/snapback] You call it killing. They call it public relations in multi-level marketing.

And, that is after about their 15th offense where they got pleaded down.

Were it your family, what would you think then? 530265[/snapback] Yes. If it were someone in my family I'd pray that the Lord would give me the strength to endure whatever I had to endure and give me the grace to forgive. I was raised that way. I just pray I never have to go thru something like that.
Wacka Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 The "children's books" have sold a grand total of about 350 copies! The Crips can't read so why write books for them?
