Pro Death

I've not ever tried to hide my pro death stand. I'm willing to openly admit that I favor keeping the death penalty, and that there has been more than one case where I've found myself stunned that the guilty didn't get it.

Anthony Stockelman is one of those people. You all know the story- he kidnapped, molested and killed a 10 year old girl. Then thanks to DNA, he was convicted. He didn't get the death penalty. Should have, but didn't.

And that might be a valid point in explaining my surprise to find his name listed on a website that appears to be against the death penalty. Something senseless called 'Walk 4 Life 2008". A quote:
For now talk about it. Talk about it amongst one another or here if you wish, what would it take to satisfy the people that want a death penalty? Life without parole is no gift of life let me tell you. It is a death sentence, you just die slowly. Having a convicted murderer serve life opposed to being executed always gives the victims family the opportunity to forgive, not forget, but forgive. I believe this is where the healing is.

Forgive? I hardly think so.
And then from the 'dedication' post:
The Following Day's Have Been Dedicated to Prisoners By Their Loved Ones. To dedicate a day to loved one please contact us at projectrevolution2010@gmail.com Mark subject Prisoner dedication.

And on April 6th- "Anthony Stockelman (Indiana)".
He my friends, is a waste of human cells. But he's not on death row. Should be. But isn't.
But, I did notice something odd. April 6th. That's the date someone picked for him. And, it's the date that Stockelman was arrested back in 2005.
Mr. Stockelman was arrested on April 6 after he provided a DNA sample that matched semen found at the crime scene as well as saliva on a cigarette butt found at the creek, the butt having not been processed until March 30.


Feel free to show your 'support' to the walker, or the 'organizer' of this walking protest if you want... here's his myspace. Maybe someone might want to remind him about how Stockelman forever hurt a family, and how he forced a child who was just 10 to spend her last moments experiencing his perverted desires.

Florida Sex Offender Registry

Reading the news today, I was taken back to see that the Florida Sex Offender registry was being criticized. Having had the chance to look at it previously, I had always found it rather informative, and well organized. The issue that many are having with it now wouldn't be noticed by the occasional browser on the site. Which makes it even worse. A review of the FSR has found some rather unsettling statistics: The News-Press analyzed the Florida Department of Law Enforcement database of 36,306 sex offenders and found: • 9,205 of them are incarcerated • 7,037 have run away or can't be found • 824 have been deported; and • 516 are dead. Of the 15,573 sex offenders listed as released and not on parole or probation, only 11,355 of those actually live in Florida. Sex offender registries can only be usefully, and only fully do what they where designed to do when they are updated, maintained and monitored continuously. When you are relying on the SO registries to monitors how safe your...

WTW Someone Please Help Us

There's so much to work with, I'm going to just hit as much as I can. Ashely Simpson decided to pick a fight at McDonald's. Betting millions that if the employee would just go and get the manager- the manager would just love her. Simpson's climbing on the counter and irate behavior where in typical White Trash Style. Great coverage at Stereogum. Tom Cruise has decidedly canned his sister for her inability to help him keep his mouth shut. Evidently he needs a real professional as his PR person- in order to keep him in line. It's just not right firing family because you're and idiot. Kate Hudson is suing someone because of photos of her in which she looks like a starving actress. She claims the images suggest she has a eating disorder- no Kate, it's not the images, it's the you. One should not sue because they have starved themselves to the point of it being noticeable in photos. Please stop by these other great sites to read more WHITE TRASH WEDNESDAY B...

$167.90

He received $167.90 to serve on the jury. It couldn't have been an easy case to listen to. Hearing of how a 13 year old was raped by a 38 year old man who had befriended the family, it'd be enough to make most people turn in repulsion. But the juror did what he was suppose to, and long with the 11 other people who sat by his side- he found the defendant guilty. Believing that the child, who had come from a broken home- a mother battling drugs and a father who wasn't there- deserved justice, the 12 people performed their moral, ethical and judicial duty and sentenced Gregory Bryant to 30 years in prison. One would think that Bruse Funkhouser had earned that $167.90. Perhaps it would cover a small portion of the income that he lost while serving his duty to the courts. Perhaps it would just give him a little extra change in his pocket. So, you might wonder what would cause Funkhouser to return the check to the court house... Members of a Pawnee County jury are upset a judge g...
