QUOTE FROM MAMIE TILL MOBLEY (NOVEMBER 23, 1921 TO JANUARY 6, 2003)




“I am pleased that I am able to stand here today and say with a pure heart and meaningful heart that I am against the death penalty. There is no purpose that it serves except to further the damage that death has already done.”
– Mamie Mobley, addressing Illinois Governor George Ryan in her last public appearance, December 2002. Four weeks later, announcing his decision to commute the sentences of everyone on Illinois death row, the governor referred to Ms. Mobley’s words.

            While we the comrades of Unit 1012: The V.F.F.D.P, remembers and admire Mamie Till Mobley for the way she spoke out against evil and never stop fighting for justice for her son, we TOTALLY disagree with her stance against the death penalty. Please also hear from other murdered victims’ families who are for the death penalty.


            Marc Klaas is one example…


"It diminishes the victims when people burn candles and mourn someone who has committed a heinous crime. People on death row are some of the worst individuals that appear on the face of the earth. The abolitionists refuse to acknowledge that evil exists and evil has to be put down."
-       Marc Klaas, father of Polly Klaas
