The Supreme Court SUCKS!
They could have found some reason to offer a reprieve and send it back to Georgia again. In doing so, maybe sending a small message, to clean the mess up.

They are as sick as any one institution in GA that allowed this.

1. There were no Federal issues left
You don't think that in two decades Davis had both Federal and state issues that were fully litigated in the appeals process?

2. They were an integral part of killing a man. A man who may or may not have done it.

Is that enough to put someone to death. May or may not have done it???

They are part of the sickness.

7. He had ample opportunities for his lawyers
to have every little part of his case litigated. Victims of shooters don't get that advantage.

3. WTF, all of those good Catholics on SCOTUS,
who are frothing at the mouth to attack RvW because of their oh-so-pious "respect for life" -

Someone needs to remind the Opus Dei block of SCOTUS about the Seamless Garment. That should have been the ONLY reason they needed to offer a reprieve.

Will be interesting to see the reaction at the National Catholic Reporter. They skew heavily on the side of Vatican II Catholicism and haven't forgotten about the Social Justice mission of the Church, unlike the EWTN Fundie Catholics whose concerns about Social Justice extend only to the harassment and denigration of women and gays.

4. Pardon moi, but this is NOT a newsflash observation. It has been corrupt to the point of treasonous.

5. Didn't expect it to be. People want to focus on GA, when we got one big ole
disgusting stink pile sitting in Washington DC. Who take part in this and are NEVER held accountable.

Just wanting to shine some light on that one teensy little fact.

6. A murderer is dead. I fail to see a problem, here.
Besides, the supreme court wouldn't have had any reason to stop it.

8. “Mere factual innocence is no reason not to carry out a death sentence properly reached”
Justice Scalia.

You're in great company.

9. Remind me to order your nose ring early...
... as cases that are based entire on NO physical evidence resulting in the death sentence are sure to come. You never know... some activist judicial system might need more weak minded people to be pulled into a jury box.
