"May 1, 2005

Greeting to all!

I was just looking at my calendar and I realized that Lonnie Pursley is scheduled to be slaughtered by the state in two days.

One of the most solid convicts on the row. An over all 'Damn good guy'. A family that love him and friends who respect him. Keep the cycle of pain
going!

I want to drift from the negative. I read in one of Richard's recent Uncensored articles that there are people who doubt his innocence. Why? How
can someone be 100% sure of something they truly know nothing about.

Oh, I know why, because President George W. Bush said that there was "no
innocent people on Death Row in Texas." He is the president, so it must be
true!

Oh, yeah, did they ever find those Weapons of Mass Distruction? Hmmm. No, I
don't think they did!

People lie and people make mistakes.

I just found out that the prosecutors in my case told people to lie in my
trial and that they could not talk to my defense team. (Well, I knew they
were lying.)

Not 1, but "4" people have give statements that the prosecution had them lie and told them they couldn't talk to my defense legal team. One of these
people was a co-defendant in my case who was never arrested.

I also found out that another co-defendant in the case, who admitted to
shooting the first victim, only received a 15 years non-aggravated a reward for his testimony against me. He went from facing the Death Penalty to only getting 15 years!

I guess he did a good job, huh?

The last but not least co-defendant in the case, whom failed a lie detector test and bragged about getting away with murder, only received 35 years!

The only proof in my case is co-defendant testimony! I never killed or shot anyone.

So out of 4 people, only one (myself) received the Death Penalty. I was the youngest and only one that did not help the prosecution. I can prove everything I claim.

So all those people whom doubt Richard, you should open you mind! Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, true enough. We are talking about a human
life, though. A father, a son, a friend, an uncle, a 'before treatment' model for Rogaine! : ) Ha! Sorry, I had to throw in a little humor about Richard's bald head. : )

Though seriously, the risk is just too great. Well over a hundred men have
gotten off of Death Row in the United States by proving they were innocent.
How many were not able to prove it?

Speaking of number and statistics, I was reading in the Texas Monthly May
Edition of 2005. It had an article about where Texas ranks amongst the other
states. It listed some interesting stuff like out of 52 states in America,
Texas ranks 50th in percentage of low income children with insurance and 50th in number of high school graduates age 25 or older. Hmmm. Not good.

Lets scroll on down to where we stand at 49th. Well, don't drink the water, because ladies and gentlemen, Texas ranks 49th in spending on water quality!

Lets see what else. Ah! We are ranked 47th in percentage of poor who receive Medicaid. 46th in per capital spending on mental health! Everyone out there be careful, because that means a lot of untreated crazy people are running around!
43rd in workforce education and income distribution equality. Hmmm. Well, that isn't good, considering all the chemical plants in Texas. Didn't one blow up a couple of weeks ago? Well, now we know why.

Here is an interesting fact. Texas ranks 37th in compliance with the Supreme Court decision, declaring that unjustified institutionalization of disabled person is discrimination. Well I guess it is true! Texas will lock anyone up!

Coming in 35th in per capita spending on police protection! That doesn't seem right seeing how Texas is 48th in average spending on child protection!
That doesn't match up too well. Especially since we got cops killing kids. I think there was 2 or 3 cases of that happening in Houston, TX last year! One of which I think resulted in a conviction on the police officer.

Texas is 33rd in firearm deaths per 100,00 people. 32nd in per capita spending on education. 15th in murder rate. (I guess they don't count use of the Death Penalty.) 11th in violent crime rate and low income students in public schools.

9th in number of hazardous-waste sited on the Environment Protection Agency's national priorities list. Well, hell. What is suspected when Texas is 43rd in work force education. Kids, don't touch that six legged frog!

Texas comes in 7ths in poverty rate, 5th in total crime rate, 4th in
percentage of children living in poverty, 3rd in percentage of the
population that is malnourished. 2nd in percentage of population that goes hungry, over all birth rite, teenage birth rate, amount of exposure to ozone pollution, hazardous chemicals spills, number of inmates per 100,000 people and number 2 in number of road-rage traffic fatalities. Y'all drive safely ya hear!

Now lets hit the drum roll!!! Coming in at #1 in the USA is Texas in amount of toxic and cancerous manufacturing emissions, number of clean water permit violations, number of environment and civil rights complaints, discrimination lawsuits filed and guess what? That's right #1 in executions!
Yeah baby. Texas is #1! I guess the great State of Texas has a lot of problems. We got a lot of poor, uneducated, radiation, exposed, non-driving, hungry, dirty water drinking, violent, crazy and sick people running around.

So now I know where TDCJ gets it's workers! Keep in mind Texas is 43rd in work force education. I guess that explains how Deon Tumblin was able to die! Also, explains how so many people get wrongfully convicted. Too poor to pay for a good legal representative, the jury members too dumb to care and the DA's uneducated and overly exposed to toxic waste. Now we all know where President George W. Bush gets his speech problems from. The poor boy wasn't educated! I mean anyone that says 'There are no innocent people on Death Row in Texas,' can't have too much sense.

Well, I think I covered a lot of ground. I just mainly wanted to show how out of whack this state is. Plus challenge the death penalty from a new angle.

I am going to go ahead and bring this to an end. Use the pain to fuel the fire. I leave as I came.

P.S. A note to all the Texas Readers! If the things states in this article do not apply to you, then let it fly (if it don't apply, let it fly). I just
wanted to add a little humor and show that Texas does have a lot of problems. I mean I was born and raised in Texas. So.well, I will be damn so that is what is wrong with me! To hell with an Atkins Claim (mental retardation). I got me a Texan Claim! : )

Ya'll drive safely and watch out for 2 headed deer and aggravated postal workers!
