SAVE Tookie

[KidSha]

 

 

 

There is no such thing as legal killing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Do the knowledge to this man before you flame, I know that he is the founder of the CRIP gang, but the dude is in a death row sentence in prison and he has recuperated from everything, right now he is righting books for ghetto children to stop "Gang-Banging", he has won 5 noble awards for peace keeping, the scheduled date for the execution of tookie is December 13, lets all sign the petition and let the government know that you cant kill people period, if I commit a murder I should be doing time, but thatÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s not going to happened to Arnold because heÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s the terminator....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Peeps wake up and sign this, he has saved more lives then you think, and yes he took away lives as well and he is still under death row, so he defiantly has not been seeing freedom for the past YEARS!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A man that saved millions, stopped 80% of the gang related violence in L.a and world wide, the gang Bloods/Crisp are now at peace throughout North America.

Unfortunatly signing an online petition is unlikely to change anything here.

 

 

 

I happen to belive that this man has been totally reformed and has served his time and deserved to be released. He's a role model for youngsters about the danger of gangs and has become very influential in a good way.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The best way to compaign to halt the death sentance is to actually DO something in real life and not simply fill out an online form.

 

 

 

Theres not long left so please please CALL 916-445-2841

 

 

 

Don't be a slacktivist, online petitions rarely make an ounce of difference but a simple phone call to speak to someone about this can really change things. Don't go thought your life clicking a few buttons and making yourself feel better because ultimately by only clicking the button you wont make Stanley Williams feel any better.

Dear Governor Schwarzenegger,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am writing to you with regards to Stanley Williams. As I understand it, you are his only hope. You should know that I am in favor of the death penalty (in the most reprehensible cases) and my politics are conservative -- I am by no means a do-gooder liberal. However, I believe in the case of Tookie Williams, that if there ever was a case that demanded clemency or mercy, his would be it. Regardless of his innocence or guilt of the crimes he has been convicted of, he has spent 26 1/2 years behind bars and has used that time not only to rehabilitate himself but also to influence others. Executing Mr Williams would be like executing Louis Pasteur or Florence Nightingale. This man has saved many thousands of our youth from self-destruction, not to mention their possible future victims.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I would challenge you to read his books and ask yourself that if this man can achieve all of this from a death row cell, what would he be able to achieve if he was allowed to live? How many lives could he save and inspire? And further: what message would you be sending to the people you represent should you execute Mr. Williams -- and what message would you send should you spare his life?

Remind me exactly why this guy is in jail?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I can see the point to a certain extent, but the people rambling on about how many lives he's saved and how he's such an anti-gang advocate seem to forget that he's the guy (or one of the guys) who started the whole gang warfare 'thing' to begin with. By starting the crips he's caused the end of far more lives than he will ever save.

Ive read quite a lot about him. I also understand Rizla's opinion on this. I dont share the same pain that so many people in America, and increasingly in the UK, of first hand gang violence. All i do know is that this guy has genuinely reformed. He has spent the best part of his life trying to show the dangers of gangs. I'm not saying he should be released back into the general public but I do think that capital punishment should NEVER be used on this guy.

Shouldn't have watched George of the Jungle 2 before seeing a topic like this :s

[Barihawk]

So just because he got several Nobel prizes means he can be excused for murder?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The kids in these gangs need to learn his lesson. He will be paying for his crimes, and it does not matter if he has reformed or not.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You cannot excuse capital crimes just because you like the guy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Besides, his messages will mean more in death than in life. It puts together a much more important message than him being released.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, and gang warfare has killed over 12,000 people since the Crips were founded. That's 12,000 people who have died for turf and the color of thier shirts.

[Bubsa]

We have to make things clear. This man has been responsible for violent street crimes and, consequently, many deaths.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The same man has appeared to be reformed, has worked to redeem himself, is trying to help the next generation and has been awarded for his contributions to society.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why kill someone like that? I ask that question because I don't believe in the death penalty, if it's supposed to act as a deterrent, especially in a country that allows the selling of guns. If it's supposed to be a punishment, I believe keeping a man in jail for the rest of his life, having to live with remorse (if he has any) is a better punishment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm not saying release him, anything but. He must serve his time for his actions. Keep the man in jail and let him continue to live, continue to reform and continue to, perhaps, be a lesson of what can happen in street crime and what can happen to a reformed man.

[Higothrekk]

all this guy did for a lot of his time was sit in jail crying about how 'racism' got him the death sentence for murder (shock!). Then when he realised that wouldn't work he suddenly reformed and started helping the children :roll: . Just kill this stupid viscious thug and get it over with, I'd think more about treading on an ant.

[slicer92]

Some people are better alive then dead.If killing him is used to send a message,then what reponse will others take in how they feel about his death?Less violence?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes the man killed 4 people.However,he is different from other deathrow inmated.Most lifers or Dr inmated,just spend their life in jail and do hoops and eat or whatever they do.Tookie however is one of the few people to have had his freedom taken away,and still try to help the world.He made mistake's but has tried to correct his mistakes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Save Tookie.

If he gets let off, that will only send a message to all death row inmates to act like they've reformed until they get free.

[Peter]

A clarification on the Nobel Peace Prize that he supposedly won 5 times over. He didn't win them, he was nominated once. Did you know that anyone can nominate anyone for the Nobel Peace Prize?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't know, I that he did what he did, and deserves what was coming to him. You can't expect to murder people and get away with it, at least not when caught. Being a founder of Crips doesn't help his situation. He created a monster, there's nothing he can do about that. I know he's writing books, but I don't see what is so special between him and countless other authors who write inspiring children's books? He should just take it. If he doesn't get the death penalty he still will have life in prision. I'd rather die than spend my days like that, or at least I feel that way based on everything I've ever heard about the prision system.

As Darryl and Sims walked to the counter area to take money from the register, Williams walked behind Owens, pulling the sawed-off shotgun from under his jacket and told Owens to ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¢â¬Åshut up and keep walking.ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬ÃâÃ

I say that the best idea is just to keep him in jail. I belive that person in jail should work. But if he is promoting anti-gange violence, then i say that should be his work, and for the rest of his life he do this act.
