    She is right, good for her. He deserves the death sentence.

    Would love to know how all the left wing, peace loving, weed smoking, liberals feel about this one??

    “South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley said on Friday the suspect in the deadly church shooting in Charleston should face the death penalty if convicted.”

    She’s the typical, duplicitous, quintessential politician. A card carrying member in good standing of the NRA (who endorsed her for governor), Haley (R) signed into law an important concealed carry reform, Senate Bill 308, during a public ceremony at the General Assembly. This important pro-gun legislation makes several improvements to the South Carolina Concealed Weapons Permit.

    Now, as a result of getting free media attention from this terrible random ‘gun’ slaughter in Charleston, she’s calling for the death sentence. Haley is a hypocrite par excellence, making gun possession for the psychotics easier, and then crying about the evils she is helping to create.

    It is not up to the Governor of any state to call for the death penalty to be imposed; the latter decision rests with the District Attorney, in the jurisdiction where the crime took place. In South Carolina, a prisoner is given the choice of either lethal injection or electrocution.

    He should get what LEMRICK NELSON got, he killed someone BECAUSE he was a JEW.

    No, that’s the woman who would be after my heart if she wasn’t an idol worshiper.

    “liberals are the cause of ALL of Americas problems.”

    I am always amazed at the ‘terrific’ comebacks you ‘ditto-heads’ make when you really think about them. No wonder your own Bobby Jindal said, “We have to stop being the stupid party!”
