Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry today blasted President

From Andy Borowitz

It is a valid point. The terrorist in Yemen is unlikely to ever kill
an American.

It is a stupid point. Have you been doing drugs? This guy was the most
articulate terrorist out there. His elimination probably cut into
their recruitment efforts by a considerable amount and THAT saved
American lives.

Yet you still condemn killing a guy who was convicted in court for
killing people in this country and that conviction survives decades of
appeals, any one of which would have set him free.
Are you saying you trust the CIA more than the American judicial
system?

Justice for a black guy in the south?snerk

Harry still thinks the south is the same as it was in the early
1900's....

No he doesn't.

That's correct. There have been some improvements in the quality of life
for people of color in the South but when it comes to the criminal
justice system, blacks accused of capital crimes are less likely than
whites to obtain a competent legal defense. In terms of criminal
justice, Southerners are much more bloodthirsty than non-Southern
Americans. Is it their fundamentalist christianity coming into play?

What an utter and complete bull**** generalization.

States with the most executions since 1976:

Texas has had 475
Virginia, 109
Oklahoma, 96
Florida, 69
Missouri, 68
Alabama, 54
Georgia, 52
Ohio, 45
North Carolina, 43
South Carolina, 43
Louisiana, 28

Executions in large numbers are mostly a Southern thing. The government
of Missouri tried to secede. Oklahoma is as backwards a state as any of
those in the South.

Bloodthirsty. Fundamentalist. Executions.
