From the "Truth is Stranger Than Fiction" Department

The State of California has been unable to resume executions after a five-year moratorium because its prescription for one of the fatal drugs, sodium thiosulfate, expired. So, after an intense and desperate search, California was finally able to borrow a small amount of the drug from the State of Arizona, which prompted Scott Kernan, California's Undersecretary for Corrections and Rehabilitation, to send this thank you note to his Arizona counterpart:
"You guys in AZ are life-savers."

Unf***ingbelievable.

  1. Did you read Grisham's new book, "The Confession?" It's about a wrongly convicted man on death row that is executed (in Texas, surprise, surprise). I am against the death penalty because even if there is only one chance (and there are many)that at innocent man can be put to death, we should NOT have a death penalty! Yes, even for the Manson monsters! (As you know, they beat it with the changing of the law which is not retroactive).

  2. Why do we have to post "comment as" - I don't even understand that. I chose Google because I think I have a google account. Anyway, I was able to post for once.
