Fucking barbarism

The Trump administration said on Friday that it would allow firing squads and readopt lethal injection as part of a broader push to revive the death penalty.

Thou shalt not kill...except people who disagree with us

Conservatives will use their religious extremism to justify killing YOU. Disturbing leaked video from a meeting held by Abolish Abortion Texas shows state officials discussing the death penalty for abortions seekers. They're saying the quiet part out loud.https://t.co/bbDyq9rk2O pic.twitter.com/BY59UBVBnd

You can't be pro-life and pro death penalty

That pro life state we call Texas was number one in terms of executions this past year…nothing says pro life like always having the largest number of people on death row…you can’t have it both ways Texas and expect anyone else to take you seriously https://t.co/wgMJ6bxJlq

The mainstream media might think so, but this is not an exaggeration

The death penalty for anything the GOP doesn't like isn't so far-fetched

This pastor tweeting in support of Uganda’s death penalty for gays law gave the invocation for Ron Desantis and is a top supporter https://t.co/uza5FoPLxA https://t.co/n78ciJak7n

Spare us the bullshit--there were no good sides to Hitler, either

A note to all of you journalists who have or who plan to write pieces about how DeSantis is the smarter, more polished, more restrained alternative to Trump. He’s none of that. https://t.co/HuZrGmoEug

False prophecies

Except the Bible never commands us to criminalize abortion; Christ never mentioned them; God says life begins w/1st breath & abortions are free in Israel.

Jesus did oppose the death penalty; but if you'd ever actually read the Jesus parts you couldn't have supported Trump. https://t.co/t5rVIn4C0v

Bullshit artistes

For all republicans whining about Pope Francis, the only thing that's different about his papacy over that of his predecessors is that Francis has reminded his flock that fighting for the poor, looking after immigrants, taking care of the earth, and abolishing the death penalty have always been and will continue to be every bit as much a part of the church's mission as abortion, gays, and birth control.

And for Catholic politicians such as Chris Christie and Marco Rubio to claim that they can disagree with the Pope on these issues because they are political issues is the height of hypocrisy.  To suddenly decide that your faith is an a la carte of beliefs when it doesn't suit your wealthy donors or your hateful base is a sure sign that your faith is a fraud.

Which really isn't so surprising when you consider that republicans have never had any problem ignoring Christ's admonition that "You cannot serve both God and money."

They've made a movement out of serving money.

A snowball flies through hell

The ultra-conservative state of Nebraska today abolished the death penalty.

Let me repeat that:  the ultra conservative state of Nebraska today abolished the death penalty.

Pretty sure there's a lesson there somewhere.

Heaven from Hell

A recent study reports that more than half of all the people executed in America suffer from a mental illness.

Cruel and unusual punishment, indeed.

Originally I had planned to end the post by saying "Sometimes there are no words."  But for some reason this old proverb popped into my head:  "There but for the grace of God, go I."

On Troy Davis

Like so many, I signed countless petitions for Troy Davis.  I sent countless letters that those much more committed than I were gracious enough to compose.  I even said a Hail Mary for him while the Supreme Court was considering a stay of his execution. 

It didn't matter.

And all I will take out of Troy Davis' execution this evening is an even stronger conviction that the government should remain solely a force for good, and has absolutely no business taking the life of any human being under the auspices of our very fallible legal system.

Happy Father's Day

Every now and again, one comes across a piece about an issue that shows just the right empathy for those that oppose, but stands steadfast in its principle nonetheless. The kind of piece that makes one think, "Damn, I wish I'd wrote that."

While I have to admit to being a tad biased (we do share a wee bit of the same blood) this piece by the King is one of those such pieces.

I'm proud of you, Son....
