As Speaker of the House, Gingrich introduced the ?Drug Importer Death
Penalty Act of 1996.?

****The bill would have required a ?sentence of death for certain
importations of significant quantities of controlled substances.? It
would have applied to anyone convicted more than once of carrying 100
doses ? or about two ounces ? or marijuana across the border.
Defendants would have had a window of 18 months to file their one and
only appeal.****

?If you import a commercial quantity of illegal drugs, it is because
you have made the personal decision that you are prepared to get rich
by destroying our children,? the Georgia Republican said at a
fundraiser for Rep. Charlie Norwood (R-GA) in 1995. ?I have made the
decision that I love our children enough that we will kill you if you
do this.?

?The first time we execute 27 or 30 or 35 people at one time, and they
go around Colombia and France and Thailand and Mexico, and they say,
?Hi, would you like to carry some drugs into the U.S.?? the price of
carrying drugs will have gone up dramatically.?

U.S. law already allows the death penalty in the cases of large-scale
drug operations ? or continuing criminal enterprises ? that result in
murder.

Gingrich charged in 1994 that 25 percent of President Bill Clinton?s
White House staff used drugs, but at the same time admitted that he
had also smoked pot 25 years earlier.

?That was a sign we were alive and in graduate school in that era,? he
explained.

?See, when I smoked pot it was illegal, but not immoral,? Gingrich
reportedly told Wall Street Journal reporter Hilary Stout in 1996.
?Now, it is illegal AND immoral. The law didn?t change, only the
morality? That?s why you get to go to jail and I don?t.?

Newt, an insane piece of ****.

I prefer summary execution. It lessens the cost of the trial and it
reduces recidivism.
