His crimes were heinous just like all the rest of the scum that sits on DR.
Nixon didnt express remorse or admission of proven guilt either.
Crips or no crips, TW was executed for murder. If executions are going to be strongly publicized, all of them need to be.
On another note.....I, for one, will be glad when Jesse Jackson takes his last breath.
Hi Rednfirey, and you sure are! LOL
I do disagree with you about John Nixon Sr. At the very end, before the needle was put into his arm, he did express remorse. I posted it on the Tookie thread.
I wanted everyone to realize that life goes on, and here the day after Tookie met Diablo and went down under, John Sr met his maker at 6pm EST.
Happy thoughts all around about this. He was a regular HIT MAN. the kind that movies are made about - the real horrible thing. Who knows how many went down by his hand. Many more than this one victim I am sure as sure can be.
The point is, near the end of time he had to deal with, he stated his son had done the deed. And then, when he knew time was a running out, he did express remorse. He was a cold hearted killer from the old school - 77 years old, born in the roaring 20's. To me that means he also had old school in his heart from anything good he had been given in life, and that - that alone is why he knew he could not go out of this life until he made his peace with his maker, which I do believe he did. Tookie didn't give a about that. He had no breadth of background to draw from, and was only satisfied by what would satisfy himself.
John Nixon Sr. was a very evil man. His execution was noted here at WS a week before it even happened. He deserved what happened to him, and after 2 or 3 other scheduled dates that gave him reprieve because of his bad health, it was a very easy, simple passing with no complications. But he did make one difference in his life that we should respect. He didn't go out saying nothing about his crime like Tookie. It was on his mind!
