Think we'll get 6 pts from those two. Both crap sides.

\Graph or STFU.

Tony Wouldcock was gay apparently.

Quite right Fish.

Thought Le Saux was gay. Looks gay anyway.

This Cabella looks hot.

This is him at his mind games best. The title will be very close, no harm in getting refs on board.

Yeah WW3 will be a piece of piss.

As was the case in Illinois, many inmates were released from Death Row on evidence of prosecutorial errors, lying by witnesses or confessions by others. Last year, 75 percent of the Florida death penalty cases brought before an appeals court were overturned. While Illinois Gov. George Ryan has issued a moratorium on executions, Florida's Legislature is moving to limit appeals. Last month, under pressure from Gov. Jeb Bush, legislators in a three-day special session passed the Death Penalty Reform Act of 2000, a law to limit appeals from Death Row inmates. Its aim is to allow the execution of Death Row inmates within five years of sentencing. "What I hope is that we become like Texas," said Brad Thomas, a policy adviser to Bush, at the time the legislation was passed. "Put them on a gurney and let's rock and roll." He later apologized for the remark. The governor says the law puts victims' rights on a par with those of criminals and that a faster appeals process should help free the innocent, as well as execute the guilty, more quickly. Critics say history shows that cutting the appeals process, particularly to five years or less, is almost certain to result in the execution of innocent people. "What we know if we look at the 85 exonerations nationwide since 1976 is that the average time that people spent on Death Row was 7 1/2 years" before new evidence came to light, said Elizabeth Semel, director of the American Bar Association's Death Penalty Representation Project in Washington. His dad G W Bush killed more people (152) in his role as Governor of Texas than any other Gov in history. One every 9 days he was in charge. http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2000-02-28/news/0002280032_1_death-row-executions-death-penalty-reform-act Texas http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/execution/readings/texas.html Judges are elected and have to remain popular.

She was doing pro-bono on death row. She said there was a flurry to start executing those on stays when election time was coming around and the incumbent politicians needed a popularity boost. I have no reason to doubt her tbh. Frankly from what I could gather half those on death row shouldn't really have been there, they barely had any understanding of the legal process and a couple had reading and writing skills of 7 year olds.

It's worse than that. In the Southern states politicians would get an election bump if they started killing blacks come election time... She nearly quit the law she was that depressed when she got back.

Like everything else they've turned prison and rehab into a business run by private companies which is in itself sick. When private companies make billions out of crime the system is fucked imo. The ex-MrsP did work in South Carolina on death row and her stories were harrowing. Quite a few had low IQ's bordering on mental handicap or couldn't read and write or had a poor understanding of what was happening to them. Many had been kicked through the legal system in such a speedy manner it was questionable with regard to their legal rights and so on...She reckoned half the people on death row had such mitigating circumstances that in the UK the process would have been deemed illegal.

Agreed. America is all about the old gods, too much religion and too much guns, with a culture hell bent on destroying itself. Highest prison population in the world iirc.

Not over yet.

I'm taking all the credit fuckheads! Had to put up with Fish predicting a 1-0 and all sorts of shit. Luckily he knows virtually nothing about football.

There's only 2/3 teams in this league that can control whole matches. Just savour the result.

There was always going to be a bit of pressure when they started launching ala Jabba style, but we controlled 75% of that game. Remy could have had a hat trick in the first half. Should have been about 1-5.

Andy donkey Carroll doing us a favour.

Easy.

Hatem on.

Joe Cole is a bit dangerous in these situations.

The worrying in here. We'll piss this.

Early second half goal and the booing will resume.
