Rest in Peace

My heart goes out to the family of Troy Davis, who was executed in Georgia yesterday despite the complete lack of physical evidence and only questionable witnesses who have since recanted, as well as worldwide protests from such luminaries as former President Carter and Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

And while they sought the execution, my heart is also with the family of murdered Officer McPhail, who didn't really receive justice last night.

There is no justice in killing.

I'm with Crunchy Corner (Sew and Sow's daughter) in feeling shame as an American today.
