Execution #3: Date of Execution: March 30, 1984 Offender: Ronald Clark O’Bryan #529 Last Statement: What is about to transpire in a few moments is wrong! However, we as human beings do make mistakes and errors. This execution is one of those wrongs yet doesn’t mean our whole system of justice is wrong. Therefore, I would forgive all who have taken part in any way in my death. Also, to anyone I have offended in any way during my 39 years, I pray and ask your forgiveness, just as I forgive anyone who offended me in any way. And I pray and ask God’s forgiveness for all of us respectively as human beings. To my loved ones, I extend my undying love. To those close to me, know in your hearts I love you one and all. God bless you all and may God’s best blessings be always yours. Ronald C. O’Bryan P.S. During my time here, I have been treated well by all T.D.C. personnel. :/

Shot a dude driving a truck for looking at him the wrong way/cutting him off on the road while he was on a motorcycle. Dude had Judge Dredd fantasies.

Not Texas, but it can't get much more depressing than Ricky Ray Rector saving the pecan pie from his last meal for later, though. I don't support the death penalty either but some nice words at the end of his life doesn't erase what the guy did. Hopefully he meant them but I doubt it.

I dont mind the death penalty, only that the system which enforces it takes far too long to do so. Give a person 10-20 years with nothing to do but make peace with every god they can name and they turn into boring scripture-quoting types. This guy nailed it, though: quote:I deserve this. Tell everyone I said goodbye.

So you don't mind that we kill innocent people under the guise of justice and would in fact prefer to speed the process along thus causing even more people to be murdered unjustly. Cool story bro.

whoflungpoop posted:Texas does do an effective job relative to other execution states in reducing the time between conviction and execution, and this is for a number of reasons (like expediting state appeals) and working out other statutory or procedural kinks that other states haven't fully tested or affirmed. You realize that 'The process' is murder right? The pointless murder of human beings, including many are innocent. Texas reduced the time between conviction and execution and this is a large reason why Texas leads the nation in the execution of the innocent. A study on the death penalty found that roughly 4% of people on death row are innocent. Speeding things up simply means that those 4% of people will be executed that much faster with less chances for their innocence to come to light. Apparently you are okay with the state murdering people who did nothing wrong so long as they murder many more people who did do something wrong.

Whether you approve of them or not they're just facts, and fairly boring ones to be honest. You consider the Texas death penalty system to be a good thing. I'm not being rude or upset, I'm trying to explain that Texas kills completely innocent people in their search to pointlessly murder the guilty. And you seem to be okay with that. I think my statement about you is pretty factual honestly.

What's the requirement for ending up on death row anyway? A lot of these people seem to have been found guilty of one or two murders, which, while horrible, seems excessive to sentence them to death for. Quite a few of them also seem to have been crimes of passion which historically have a very low reoffending rate. I'm just asking because of the amount of Americans that told me "Wish you had the death penalty now, eh?" when Breivik happened here. Edit: A lot of them also seem to have had mental problems.

It usually means murder: Of a Child Of a Police Officer (or firefighter) Committed during the commission of another felony, like burglary there are other forms of capital murder, but these are what you're seeing on here.
