true

but....

you never factored in the cost of the burlap bag

or the cost of the shovel used to dig the pit

or the pay to escort this guy to his pit

or the pay to pay someone to backfill the pit


sheeeit!! our government would prob make it out to 10mil somehow if they followed your way of murder...

all you need is whatever that shit dexter injects people with. stick their ass in a sack and wheelbarrow em out to a hole. as soon as they wake up bullet to head

Why are states like texas that are proud to kill anyone even when there is huge doubts about their guilt. Parry the dick killed a guy that turned out to be innocent and then shut down any investigations in to the mans execution. Damn right don.t mess with texass they'll kill you wether your guilty or not.
As for the death penalty as a deterent it don't work that way. Texass has murdered more people than china, and parry brgs about it. The whole country will go down the drain even faster if a jerk like parry or even that other texass fool paul. my two cents.fuck parry and texass.

^if he becomes president Karma will get him. He will get killed by a patriot in our government, and they will blame it on a nut job, and end the investigation just like in 911.

how can anyone be proud of the death penalty? It is like being proud of putting rabid dogs to sleep. it is sad and sucks. The survivors, of victims, of the men put to death, don't get their loved one back.

two wrongs do not make a right.

what is even more sickening is how these people claim to be christian and follow Jesus, yet they murder for revenge at will. wtf. I'm not religious, but even I see that is fucked.

"Don't mess with Texas" was originally an anti-littering campaign but it took on a life of it's own after people outside the state (rightly) assigned it a broader definition. Texas is racist and homophobic, but welcome to America. At least Texas is honest about it, instead of pretending to be tolerant but unable to pass laws which clearly demonstrate that tolerance. Muslims have a hard time anywhere in the US right now. Texas is no different. Texas could secede from the union, but that will never happen. Texas has one of the largest economies in the world (11th or 12th?), 2nd largest in the US. It has vast territories that provide multiple, abundant natural resources, including oil. Have you ever traveled Texas, Hash? The state is very beautiful. Have you been down to Big Bend? Have you been to Austin, San Antonio, or South Padre Island? There is beauty all over Texas. (By the way Colorado is Texas territory as well. Don't tell them but we own that state, lock, stock, and barrel. So, you could say we have our own little summer retreat just a few hours north, and don't tell me that state isn't beautiful!) There is even a quiet solemn mystical aesthetic to east and west Texas. And there are some fine women that come from those little nothing hick towns. Even the Texas border towns have that old school wild west feel to them, and the food is amazing! I don't like the cannabis laws either. I'm happy to be out of there, but I also think anyone can sit at home with their MMJ card and grow their "legal medicine", but it takes a real soldier to grow in the face of consequences like they have down in Texas. I guess what I'm saying is, I don't like everything about my home state, but I still respect where I'm from and it's not the place you make it out to be Hash. They do a lot of things right, and the death penalty is one of them. If you have a deterrent on the books, use it or it ceases to be a deterrent. Seems pretty straight forward to me. And there is nothing, and I mean nothing, more pointless than a last meal IMO. They typically don't eat it and we shouldn't be giving it to them in the first place. They certainly don't deserve it.

The thought of being executed wouldn't stimulate my appetite much I don't think.
But at least I wouldn't have to worry about the calories.....

Yes I have been to all of those places. Austin, and Big Bend areas are nice. oh ya and Hamilton pool. Other than that it has nothing to offer me nature wise in comparison to the western states. No where on the planet compares to the western USA. Cali, OR, WA. Utah, CO, New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona, Montana, all way better than Texas. I have been to all of them. lived in Texas for 25 years too. you know what I remember. Miserable humidity and heat.

Texas can no longer secede. They gave that right up. Texans let have way too much ego built up into there state and it clouds them from the truth. oh that and the ten million churches they have.

^read for yourself

However I will admit that the rest of the country is still pathetically racist, sexist, and homophobic, not just the south. Even cali outlawed gay marriage.

Well since we spend 10 million to execute them i don't see a problem with spending $50 on food.

I dunno...first off, I think that guy was innocent...

and when I put myself in his shoes, I could see myself wanting to order all of my favorite things for one last time...but then when I sit in front of it all, being stared at by guards, I would start feeling sick to my stomach; using all my minds resources thinking about loved ones, not some stupid fatty ben&jerrys temporary escape.

you can't really blame the guy.

he ordered the following...
two chicken fried steaks smothered in gravy with sliced onions, a triple-meat bacon cheeseburger, a cheese omelet with other ingredients, a large bowl of fried okra with ketchup, three fajitas, a pint of Blue Bell ice cream and a pound of barbecue with a half-loaf of white bread.
The meal request also included a slab of peanut butter fudge with crushed peanuts, a pizza and three root beers.

Aww man thats making me Hunnngggrry!

Yup, they said, 'Give a hoot. Don't pollute.'

Texas is racist and homophobic, but welcome to America.
Yeah, Austin is like an oasis from those. Comparing America Texas suggests you never left the state.

At least Texas is honest about it, instead of pretending to be tolerant but unable to pass laws which clearly demonstrate that tolerance.
I think your boy that dragged James Byrd to his death spawned a whole new series of hate crime legislation down der. I guess the Civil Right Act isn't enough to deter white supremacists with pickup trucks and chains.

Muslims have a hard time anywhere in the US right now. Texas is no different.
Singling out minorities?

Texas could secede from the union, but that will never happen.
But one of life's disappointments.

Texas has one of the largest economies in the world (11th or 12th?), 2nd largest in the US.
Most minimum wage jobs.

It has vast territories that provide multiple, abundant natural resources, including oil.
And a $9 billion stimulus check from Uncle Barry. I liked it when Tex Perry bragged about a $3 billion surplus after he paid off the $6 billion deficit, the largest in Texas history. I guess you as much as anybody know the saying... it's always bigger in Texas.

But Dick Cheney's 2001 secret energy policy meetings are your biggest resource. Gas prices climbed from ~$1.05/gl to as high as $4 and $5. Big Oil went from the top 20% of private profiteers to #1 in less than ten years.

Have you ever traveled Texas, Hash? The state is very beautiful. Have you been down to Big Bend? Have you been to Austin, San Antonio, or South Padre Island? There is beauty all over Texas. (By the way Colorado is Texas territory as well. Don't tell them but we own that state, lock, stock, and barrel.

So come on down to Texas but make sure you don't step on my grass. I can shoot ye.

I don't like the cannabis laws either. I'm happy to be out of there, but I also think anyone can sit at home with their MMJ card and grow their "legal medicine", but it takes a real soldier to grow in the face of consequences like they have down in Texas.
I hear real soldiers all go to Huntsville.

That's right. It ain't the money. It's the thought of being less harsh than we could have gotten away with. If we'd only thought of it ourselves before that piece of trash thumbed his nose at us one last time.

I thought Byrd's death was ruled an accident?

The Astros suck, Rangers are even worse. Romo sucks too. Cowboy hats are retarded. Exactly what is Texas toast? Evangelists live in Texas. The Alamo was lost and everyone died. Cowboy boots have womenly points on the toes. Dolly Parton sucks. Rodeos are retarded. Half the state population is illegal immigrants. Walker Texas Ranger is the worst show ever created. Pee Wee Herman travelled through Texas searching for his bicycle.

Oh I thought he didn't eat it just to piss them off....

it's their last meal... it's like a tradition

it's something nice for them

the texan way to treat them a bit like humans in all of that animal shit

why the heck would you take something like that a way from them

the freedom of having the choice of what you want to eat

their spending so much time in that shit hole

even if they have access to drugs and maybe to rape (criminals way of having fun)

I think they should eat whatever they want

I agree with h20, death penalty ftw

fuck those hellholes

they should send some officials/leaders to prison just to see if they can manage

hey if it's good enough for us, should be good enough for everyone
