Reading about this guy has made me more sympathetic to the death penalty. I cant wait for him to die.

Something to discuss? A link to the story? Or just an opinion shot out into the endless cyber space?

Is he the Crips guy on Death Row that Snoop's trying to save?

He is the founder of the bloods who killed four people, and we arent talking other gang members. He had one 7-11 employee lay down on his back and he shot him. Then in another robbery he murdered some asian immigrants and their child.

He refueses to give up information about The Crips Gang, because he says his character is too strong to snitch.

However he has written children books that preach against gangs and violence, and he has supposibly negotiated a peace treaty between the crips and bloods last year or something - which doesnt make much sense, how can he negotiate a peace treaty unless he controls the gang? I think his peace treaty is the equivialnt of posting an article on his website.

Two of his children are also convicted for murder.

Although, he does deny all murder charges. And has been nominated for a noble peace prize - basically anyone can be nominated. A guy in Sweedish parliment nomiated him after seeing the Jamie Foxx movie.

What do they do in Asia with people like that? I bet Thailand would do something SOOOO COOOL!

I'm staunchly anti-death penalty, but Tookie Williams isn't the guy to be holding up as your poster boy.

There is no death penalty in Thailand.

I [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] death penalty. I'd pull the trigger for this douche.

Thailand has the death penalty...unless they changed it very recently.

I also have strong opinions about issues I am totally clueless about.

I <3 Jihad, I'd pull the trigger for this douche in a heartbeat, or at least send a neighbor to beat up his kids in the park.

actually he is the founder of the crips and maintains his innocence to this day. the reason he has not given up information about the crips and their communication is because they have not offered him a deal that spares his life. your ignorance is astounding.
