Yes, and the decision by the mayor of
Paris to name a convicted
American cop killer as an honorary citizen
was what?

Souind bizarre -- do you have details?

Pff. The gay, socialist mayor of Paris made
Mumia Adbu Jamal (spelling?)
an
honorary citizen.

Correct spelling is Mumia Abu-Jamal.

Seems to me he was making a point against
the death penalty and
against perceived miscarriages of justice
in the USA.


Absolutely, but as someone here said previously,
we might as well start by
helping the innocent convicts on death-row.
Even better, we could focus on
making our judicial system better than it is
today.
The Paris city council is pretty critised since
the socialist/green
coalition won the elections 2 years ago.
Then again, sollciting MAJ isn't like helping
nazis out of Germany.
Some people here should try to relax!
PHB


And those of us here in the States ask why folks in Europe seem to like
cop-killers. This guy in PA has lost every appeal of his case. Only the fact
that he's some intellectual behind bars blinds people to the fact that until
a proper court overturns the verdict and sentence, he's a convicted cop-killer
who fully deserves the needle. Unfortunately, other options for his execution
are considered cruel and unusual punishment-they should bring Old Sparky
out of retirement or build a new gallows for those on Death Row.
