Will Clarence Allen be the New Anti Execution Poster Child?
Now that Tookie is pushing up daisies, so to speak, I wonder who will be in the mix of the next anti-execution crew. Will the Hollywood elites grace the gates of San Quentin again on January 17TH, 2005 for the scheduled execution of Clarence Ray Allen? Read it here, & here. Will we have Fox, Farrell, Baez and the Snoop Dog? And, how about that all time publicity vampire, Rev. Jesse Jackson?
Clarence should be a good draw because he is old, infirmed and not white. That’s right, don’t be confused by his picture. He is a Choctaw American Indian. Now, there’s a minority if you ever saw one. Far more than the Took.
But, to the best of my knowledge Clarence never wrote any children’s books (not that Tookie did) nor was he nominated for the Nobel prize by some liberal stooge. Of course, anybody can be nominated for the Nobel prize, and you can even win regardless of whether or not you did anything worthwhile. The proof is the Nobel prize awarded to the murdering terrorist Arafat.
Speaking of children’s books and the alleged thousands of ghetto youth saved from a life of gangbanging by Tookie, did you see the response from the streets of Los Angeles about Tookie’s death? It could well have been characterized as Tookie who? Oh yeah, Tookie made a big impression on the ghetto youth even with the books written by his ghost writer. What a crock. Probably the best thing you can say about Tookie is that he was true to himself. A big cold-blooded murdering thug.
So Clarence, what do you think? Can you get the attention of these Hollywood elites? I don’t know, but you will have the anti-execution diehards (sorry about that word) clamoring for your clemency. But, you just might not have the stuff to attract the star power. Not to worry; they don’t offer any advantage anyway. They are just a bunch of self-absorbed publicity whores.
