Breaking News - US Supreme Court denies request for stay of execution for Georgia inmate Troy Davis - wire services.
Well, that's fucking absurd.
Why is legally killing people legal?
Why are we so thirsty for blood and revenge?

jesus fucking christ
Yeah, America is so full of shit it’s not funny. We spend trillions on war but refuse to pay for everyone’s health care. We invade two countries and kill hundreds of thousands to prove how great a country we are. And now people protesting the execution of a black man convicted of killing ONE cop (possibly unjustly convicted) are having their freedom of speech suppressed by being arrested.
GOOD PLAN, AMERICA!
Oh and don’t forget:
Troy Davis is Still Alive—let’s keep it that way! Call 404-656-5651

Reblogged from DigitalMeowMix:
I did and got a busy signal. I'm going to keep trying off and on for the afternoon and see if I can leave a voicemail or talk to anyone. What will I say to them? This:
"Please let Troy Davis live. There is too much doubt regarding his case. Please stop this from happening. Thank you."
GA Parole/Pardons Board: 404-656-5651 has been regarded as STILL WORKING as of about 5 seconds ago. CALL THIS NUMBER. I dialed 0 at the first machine and 2 at the second!

toys.thepete.com: End Life Crisis
I designed this for the Mimoco DIY Vimobot contest. I didn't even place :( But I'm happy with the design nonetheless. I think I do pretty well with a few sharpies and some vinyl. :)
See, the idea of the contest was to create a design that would be used for one of their thumb drives. My thought was that the metal electrocution cap on this guy would be the cap of the USB so when you plugged ELC into your USB port, he'd look like he was all nervous about being plugged into your computer--like the 3 volts a USB port puts out was going to kill him.
I guess not everyone has the same sense of humor about capital
punishment that I do.
Check out more pics of my End Life Crisis piece, including progress shots and even some original sketches for this and other Vimobot designs, in the Flickrset for this project:
