NJ's Death Penalty, a post-vote PressConf

by: Jay Lassiter

Fri Dec 14, 2007 at 09:12:44 AM EST



( - promoted by Jay Lassiter)

When Governor Corzine signs the bill, N.J. will be the first state in the land to repeal the death penalty legislatively.  Nasty criminals face life without parole instead.

Is it me, or are some victories just extra sweet?

...applauding!

When I heard this story being reported on BBC radio this morning I actually felt proud to be from New Jersey.

Sadly, New Jersey has a global reputation for all manner of shenanigans and let us not forget the polluted north end of the turnpike/cancer alley etc etc etc.

I pray that this truly revolutionary leadership/stand against death will be a harbinger of LIFE in terms of truly cleaning up our ecological and political environments.

New Jersey has the capacity to lead the nation; and we, the Blue Jersey  progressive community have a key role to play in that struggle.

Let's roll!!!


Death Penalty (4.00 / 1)
Jay, thank you for your wonderfully persistent coverage of this historic breakthrough!

It's been a long and difficult struggle--but that's what it takes.  Blue Jersey has played a critical role in this victory.

We have a long way to go but we can't stop now!

"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are."  (Teddy Roosevelt)

I just did a Google news search of "Caraballo+Death+Penalty" and in the past day, 900+ articles are online, most from global press.
