   So you're saying that black people don't push for the death penalty,   
   even though they would 'benefit' from it because their own people would   
   suffer by it. Well yeah I suppose given institutionalised racism among   
   police forces it would be turkeys voting for christmas. However there   
   may be other reasons- that being anti death penalty is usually part of   
   any liberal/left person's personal bag of ethics, or maybe that it is   
   recognized, sagaciously, in these areas that the death penalty is a   
   barbarous thing that doesn't do any 'good'. It is especially nauseating   
   in places like Texas, where the c**t Bush, hails from and where they   
   are, I understand, trying to get the executionable age lowered! They'll   
   have executions on pay per view cable transmissions in the next ten   
   years. We're going back to Tyburn. Myself, I'm anti death penalty all   
   the way.
