By Alan BeanNo one was particularly surprised when Jesse Jackson called on the state of Georgia to commute the death sentence against Troy Davis. Now the European Union is going to bat for Davis. According to the Canadian Press, the EU is concerned that an innocent man may soon be scheduled for execution.
Popes and former presidents have previously gone to bat for Mr. Davis and this isn’t the first time the European Union has expressed its concerns about the case. International outrage over this case is understandable–the United States is the only western democracy that uses the death penalty. It’s a key ingredient of what Sarah Palin calls “that American exceptionalism”.
Catherine Ashton, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, released the following statement:
The European Union has followed the latest developments in the case of Mr. Troy Davis, a U.S. citizen sentenced to death in the State of Georgia, with great concern. He may now be at risk of imminent execution following the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court on 28 March 2011 not to consider his final appeal and the announcement by the State of Georgia to change to an alternative drug that is more readily available in its three drug combination for executions.
The EU has repeatedly intervened on behalf of Mr. Davis and notes that serious and compelling doubts regarding his culpability continue to persist. The EU therefore calls for a commutation of his death sentence. The European Union reaffirms its principled and longstanding opposition to the use of capital punishment under all circumstances.
We know Troy Davis deserves not only a stay of execution, or a commutation of his sentence to some lesser punishment, he deserves a new trial, this time a fair trial before a jury of his peers. People in countries around the world wonder how Americans, who are almost invariably pleasant men and women who want the best for those inside their own borders and freedom and opportunity for those around the world, can have such a country that is exceptional in its correctional, health care, and educational systems, and have no interest in those of other countries which function well.
~ NOW WITH THE WWW OUR RULING WEALTHY ELITE OF AMERICA HAVE NO OTHER REALISTIC OPTION’S THEN MAKING SURE TROY DAVIS & HANK SKINNER TYPE LEGAL HORRORS ARE FAIRLY JUDICATED IN TEXAS,GEORGIA & BEYOND ~
NONE OF US REALLY KNOW BEYOND A SHADOW OF DOUBT THAT TROY DAVIS IS INNOCENT OR GUILTY ! ALL OF US WORLD~WIDE KNOW THAT IN THE REST OF THE DEMOCRATIC WORLD, NEW TRIALS WOULD ALWAYS BE AFFORDED THOSE WHO HAVE HAD ADMITTED & DOCUMENTED PERJURED TRIAL WITNESS TESTIMONIES SET UP AGAINST THEM TO MISLEAD JURORS INTO CONVICTING & EXECUTING A POSSIBLE INNOCENT MAN !
WE CALL ON U.S. ATTORNEY GENERAL ERIC HOLDER TO OPEN A FEDERAL INVESTIGATION TO FIND OUT HOW MANY POSSIBLE OTHER SET UP TRIAL’S (OTHER THAN THIS TROY DAVIS TRIAL) HAVE PREVIOUSLY OCCURRED IN SAVANNAH GEORGIA USING SIMILAR THREATS TO INTIMIDATE WITNESS TESTIMONIES FOR COURT CONVICTIONS !!!
IF THEY PULLED THIS ONE OFF WITH TROY DAVIS, IT STANDS TO REASON AMERICA NEEDS TO HAVE A FEDERAL INVESTIGATION INTO EVERY SINGLE TRIAL THIS SAME GROUP OF POLICE,INVESTIGATORS & PROSECUTORS HAVE EVER BROUGHT INTO SAVANNAH GEORGIA CRIMINAL COURTS FOR AL,L OF AMERICA TO SEE WHAT TROY DAVIS & OTHERS WERE UP AGAINST !
OUR BET IS THERE ARE MANY OTHER POSSIBLE INNOCENT PRISON INMATES IN SAVANNAH GEORGIA WHO COULD EASILY VERIFY THAT THESE SAME WITCH HUNTERS HAVE IMPRISONED THEM,THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS OR
FRIENDS USING SET UP PERJURED WITNESS TESTIMONY AS WELL !
SAVANNAH GEORGIA NOW WANTS THE LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD TO JUST CLOSE THEIR EYES,EARS & MOUTHS & LET THESE GEORGIA SO CALLED CIVIL SERVANTS TO EXECUTE A POSSIBLE INNOCENT TROY DAVIS AGAINST GOD’S JUDEO~CHRISTIAN TEACHINGS ON THE 8TH COMMANDMENT !
THE WHOLE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY HAS BECOME AWARE THAT THE POPE AND PRESIDENT JIMMY CARTER HAVE SPOKEN OUT PUBLICLY AGAINST EXECUTING A POSSIBLE INNOCENT TROY DAVIS USING PERJURED TESTIMONY !
UNCLE SAM CAN NOT BE DEMANDING SHARIA LAW FREE OUR 2 YOUNG AMERICAN HIKERS WHO HAVE BEEN HELD IN IRAN FOR OVER 19 MONTHS WHEN WE HAVE OUR OWN POSSIBLE INNOCENT LIKE HANK SKINNER BEING DENIED A DNA TEST IN TEXAS PRIOR HIS POSSIBLE WRONGFUL EXECUTION ?
TROY DAVIS & HANK SKINNER ARE JUST 2 OF MANY THOUSANDS WHO HAVE NOT BEEN AFFORDED PROPER LEGAL OR INVESTIGATIVE REPRESENTATION IN VARIOUS ASPECTS OF THEIR CRIMINAL TRIALS & APPEALS, BUT A TINY GROUP IN AMERICA STILL PLANS ON EXECUTING BOTH OF THESE POSSIBLE INNOCENT AMERICANS PRIOR KNOWING BEYOND ANY DOUBT ABOUT THEIR GUILT ?
IF IF THIS IS INDICATIVE OF OUR USA ELITE’$ ENLIGHTENED CHANGE FOR THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD’S little citizens, WE SAY BALDERDASH !!!
