First they were 'Asian' grooming gangs, then 'Pakistani'. But the most important thing to grasp is that almost all of them ? 87% of convictions ? are Muslim, says Mark Durie. This must not be covered up.

Stan Tookie Williams - Founder of the Crips to be Executed

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Tuesday November 01, 2005 21:05author by Dominic - International Homeless Forum Report this post to the editors

The cultural significance of Stan Tookie Williams alone is huge, even if I believed in the death penalty (which I don't) I would let this man live out his years.

His anti-gang work during his 26 1/2 years in prison has been huge, for this reason alone I would be comfortable paroling him now (releasing him).

As it stands he is set to be executed on the 13th of December...

Williams was convicted of murdering four innocent bystanders with a sawed-off shotgun in 1979. There was nothing peaceful or compassionate about the way [Albert Owens], Thsai-Shai Yang, Yen-I Yang and Yee Chen Lin died. Owen[s] was a white teen-age clerk at a 7-11 convenience store, shot twice in the back of the head -- execution-style -- as he lay unarmed on the floor during a hold-up. A witness testified that Williams mocked the gurgling sounds Owen[s] made as he lay dying. "You should have heard the way he sounded when I shot him," the witness quoted Williams.

The Yangs were Taiwanese immigrants who, along with their daughter Yee Chen Lin, were gunned down during a motel robbery two weeks after Owen[s] died. Half of the daughter's face was blown off by the shotgun blasts, said former L.A. County Deputy District Attorney Robert Martin. Williams called them "Buddhaheads," Martin recounted, and robbed them of petty cash.

Williams has yet to apologize to the victims' families. When the trial ended, Williams muttered to the prosecution team, "I'll get every one of you m-----f-----s."

Tookie Williams was sentenced to die for these brutal crimes in 1981. But at the end of this year, he will have celebrated 19 more Thanksgivings, 19 more Christmases, and 19 more birthdays. That's 6,935 days more than [Albert Owens], Thsai-Shai Yang, Yen-I Yang and Yee Chen Lin were allowed to enjoy on this earth...

Why kill some one who has changed and influenced so many young people to stop violence. If he dies more then likely it will all go back to the same thing to where there's tons of killing's.. why would you even want that? He doesn't deserve to die expecially on my 16th Birthday on December 13th.. what a great birthday present :'( Just let him live he's written books to help the children/ people of our nation.
