  1. "White American Murdered Victims"? ---- indeed. after all, white lives matter; black lives don't. right?

  2. President Bush and the U.S. Supreme Court refused jones’ two final requests that they intervene. figures. this execution occasioned by a kidnapping-murder-rape little different from hundreds of others would never have happened had the victim been black. america a "post-racial" society? hardly! this politically driven execution and this website proves once again america is a deeply racist and unequal society, contrary to its founding principles. shameful, unchristian, and undemocratic in the extreme.
