Hey, Urbane Guerrilla:
What do you say about the case of the founder of the legendary gang, The Crips,
Stanley "Tookie" Williams?
Here we have a case were the authorities have custody of Willams. He is their prisoner, but has not debriefed officials. He has stated he has no interest in becoming a "snitch". Williams has admitted "terrorizing" Americans in southern California. His scheduled execution date is 13 Dec 2005.
Are you in favor of clemency so that he can be subject to "enhanced interrogation techniques" in order to extract "intel as vital as oxygen"? Or would you favor execution, thereby condemning more Americans to suffer, perhaps to die, unecessarily, in the absence of the vital intel?
Quote:
"Williams' refusal to debrief, and his characterization of the debriefing process as 'snitching' clearly shows that Williams has not turned his back on the Crips gang, a gang he co-founded," said the document signed by District Attorney Steve Cooley.
"Although Stanley Williams is not directly responsible for every gang crime committed today, he was an integral founding member of a gang that has contributed, and continues to contribute, to the gang problem with devastating force."

Fry him or fold him? Hang him or hurt him? Drown him or drown him just a little?
