Texas Pride

More than 60% of all US executions took place in Texas this year. An excerpt from Adam Liptak's piece from today's New York Times:

“We’re seeing fewer executions,” Mr. Marquis added. “We’re seeing fewer people sentenced to death. People really do question capital punishment. The whole idea of exoneration has really penetrated popular culture.”

Except in Texas.

This reminds me of the pic J.Jerry took of me in front of his roommate James.

Whatever happened to James?

James is dead.

Exactly what I wish you would be.
