I guess the only problem here is that most Blue Staters would be against giving Peterson the chair even though he deserves to die. Then again, Peterson is pretty frikkin' white, so you won't get the ACLU crowd all up in arms about how the death penalty is inherently racist. On a different sort of dissenting note, James Joyner writes that Come on, Jim! Peterson murdered his wife and unborn child for no particular reason except for the fact that they made it harder for him to have fun on weekends. Actually, that's a good reason not to give him the chair. Once the other inmates gets their hands on Peterson, his life will be a living hell. (Hmmm. I'm sounding a little bloodthirsty today. It must be all the wrestling movies.) UPDATE: JW writes: Were you drunk when you wrote this? There is no point too it, and it's offensive.I respond: Sadly, I was sober. This is just the kind of reaction that normally sane and thoughtful people seem to have when some guy kills his wife and unborn child. But point taken. (0) opinions -- Add your opinion
