To my amazement, there is a new petition at the official White House Web site about abolition of the death penalty:
WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:
STOP the Death Penality Now in Memory of Troy Davis
"Joined by Justice Clarence Thomas in dissent, Justice Antonin Scalia criticized his colleagues for thinking that mere innocence is grounds to overturn a conviction."
This is neither fiction nor funny. Our nation's highest court is willing to murder someone regardless of their innocence, due process or appeals.
"Capital punishment is the most PREMEDITATED Murder of all Murders" Camus
The Death Penality is INHUMANE, Abhorrent and beneath our nations stated principles of justice for all. Every time a person is put to death it robs of ALL of our own humanity. Please help to END the DEATH PENALITY NOW in honor of Troy Davis.
Please pause for a moment and sign this petition.
