The powers that be either sentence the lunatic to death or get rid of him by putting him in the presidency.

Texas does have some pretty odd stuff going on in the criminal justice system. I wrote a paper on future dangerousness findings [for death penalty cases]. Obviously I read a great deal about Dr. James Grigson. Some of the stuff that allow to be said in front of juries by so called experts is just as incredible as this story. Still, this is beyond the pale.

mespo,
You and I know WB/CMM/BB is nothing else if not con-persistent.
p.s We’ve been playing week-end hosts to a bunch of ‘candy ass’ cross country skiers and snow shoers. I’m bushed.

It’s from one of the few shows I actually watch regularly, The Simpsons. Although it does read similar to a couple of lines from “Naked Lunch.”

I will echo your response to Bobfrog, What???
Ex-Texan,
Make sure your Texan relatives are unarmed when you use that big word in their presence.

I will be sure to never describe my behavior to my Texas relatives as idiosyncratic, as they might get the wrong impression.

No, wait. What?

I am with you. This is a normal case in Texas it seems. And USA, it seems that you have a problem with the insane being treated for their problems. That is a sad situation. If the insane can’t get help, you may actually see more crimes committed by insane people who haven’t been able to get help for their sickness and as of yet haven’t been caught by those efficient Texas officials.

Any reasonable person would not surmise that Mr. Turley is advocating releasing an obviously insane individual to prey on the public, of course Mr. Thomas should be held in an appropriate facility. There is no humor in this issue, just sadness that state officials are so willingly blind and ignorant as to continue to foster a system that is based upon archaic beliefs in regard to the treatment of deviant human beings.

I find it humerous that the left wingers have all the complaints and no answers.

Tell you what lefties, how about one of you take responsibility for him, give him a job and access to your homes and families. Then we will see just how much you are willing to act on the clap trap you post here.
