6. I think we ALL deserve an answer to that. |
|
To be fair, they were ruling on holding an appeal (the stay would have been to give time to schedule that), not on the state-sponsored 'big government' murder that the RW seems to cream in their jeans over.

4. So as Troy is killed, we ask "who killed the officer?" |
|
Justice will not have been served.
And the world is being punished.

The man who was with Troy that fateful night, admitted on multiple occasions to the murder and was the one who told the police Troy did it to save his own skin. He is one of 2 of the 9 who didn't refute his testimony.
This is on his head just as much as our failed judicial system and I hope the memory of Troy haunts him for the rest of his life.

8. For a man who tossed another under the bus, I doubt it'll haunt him at all. |
|
He'll sleep just as sound at night like George W. Bush when American soldiers were dying in the hunt for WMD.

9. I used to believe that all people had souls. |
|
I also used to be 10 years younger and 20 pounds thinner.
How things change.
