To: The World Court, re: Texas Says “Nope”
Posted by Ted Bronson | Filed under Border Patrol, UN-Brand Compost
Despite the International Court of Justice‘s wishes, and despite the Sec Gen of the UN’s oh-so-heartfelt appeal, this murdering rapist, who killed two teenage girls after he and his buddies gang raped them (and all that that implies), is going to be put to death tonight.
I love this statement from the Texas executive branch:
“Mr. Medellín gang-raped and murdered two teenagers,” said Allison Castle, a spokeswoman for Gov. Rick Perry. “We welcome foreign visitors, but for those who come here with the intent to do harm, there are going to be consequences.”
I also heard the governor himself has said that it is for God to judge and forgive, but the State of Texas will be happy to arrange the meeting. (Quoted from the host of a national radio program.)
When I was a kid growing up in Alabama, my state still used the electric chair. Whenever they State got ready to delete someone, I would be sure to turn off all the electrical appliances in the house, disconnect the phone, turn off the air conditioner, unplug the fridge, and kill all the lights. The only thing I left running was the radio or the TV, tuned to the news channel. Just to make sure I was doing my part to ensure that there was enough juice going to the chair. With a tropical storm bumping into Texas at the moment, I would like to think that the people of Texas are doing the same thing. But then I realized that the Republic uses lethal injection instead of The Chair these days.
Sometimes technology doesn’t improve methodology, I guess. Public hangings were far better.
So, IJC, are you planning on indicting Gov. Perry? I can guess that a bunch folks in Texas would be glad to see him go, but not for THIS reason. On this one, he pretty much has the support of Texas, and a whole lot of others throughout this country also. Maybe, IJC, you should just step way over to the other side of the room so you don’t have to see the icky bits that go along with REAL Justice.

A public hanging would have been great, followed by perhaps letting the body twist in the subtropical climate until there was nothing left. But as a tax-paying citizen of the Republic of Texas, I’ll take what I can get.

It is finished–and once you read the details you realize how just this was.
