Pennsylvania Death Penalty

Pennsylvania committee recommends moratorium on death penalty:
A committee appointed by the State Supreme Court recommended that a moratorium be placed on the death penalty because it’s racially biased. According to the article 61% of Pennsylvania’s death row population is black. Yet blacks only make up for 10% of the entire population of Pennsylvania. Boo freakin’ hoo. Just because 10% of the population is black doesn’t necessarily mean that only 10% of death row inamtes should be black. In a perfect world that may be true but this world is far from perfect. Luckily Gov. Ed Rendell is a forer Philadelphia mayor and district attorney. So hopefully there will be no pansy ass moratorium like in Illinois. Before he was elected Gov. Rendell said that he found no evidence that the system was flawed. I lived in Philly while Rendell was mayor and he’s the only Democrat I can think of off the top of my head that I would vote for. Its a real shame though that in this country convicted felons are given more consideration than their victims.

As always it was your pleasure.
