Wife of Robbery Victim Calls for Support of Stanley Tookie Williams Peace Initiatives

Linda Owens, the widow of Albert Owens, who was slain during a convenience store robbery, issued a statement today in support of Stanley Tookie Williams’ efforts to bring an end to gang violence and his call for peace between gangs.

In a statement sent to attorneys for Williams for public release, Ms. Owens said: "I, Linda Owens want to build upon Mr. Williams' peace initiative. I invite Mr. Williams to join me in sending a message to all communities that we should all unite in peace. This position of peace would honor my husband's memory and Mr. Williams work."

To bad so many here don't stand with our true friends but with the right wing Governor.

1. Come ON

Don't start accusing people about "Standing with right wingers" just cause they have a different opinion on the matter. God damned it, stop trying to polarize the left.

3. The left supports the NAACP AI and the ACLU...

people who don't are not on the left or progress but
something else...

I call it right wing.

2. No human should have the right to decide when another lives or dies

my opinion, I know. But a foundation of my personal beliefs.

9. I'm right there with you.

No one has the right; the government doesn't have the right.

4. Owens mother plans to attend the executation.

She has always been against clemency for Tookie.

I hope to hell he never works again. The death penalty is to be reviewed in the coming months, they could not wait until them.

the lynch mob is wrong.

10. I normally stand with them as well. But I part ways here.

Sometimes your friends can be wrong and your opponents right. This, for me, is one of those times.
