The State of Texas put an innocent man to death five years ago and knew, at the time of the execution, that it was doing so. It was nothing less than a state-sanctioned murder, aided and abetted by a lying jailhouse snitch and by "arson investigators" who had no idea what the hell they were doing.
Undoubtedly, judges such as Antonin Scalia and the usual band of capital punishment apologists will not be moved, saying meaningingless shit such as "the jury properly found on the evidence presented" and that "the condemned man received full due process."
But an innocent man is still, nonetheless, dead. And he was killed by the State of Texas. He was a poor man who lost his children in a fire and the State of Texas compounded that tragedy by killing him in a most judicial fashion.
Tell you what, Texas: Leave. There won't be a war of secession, just go. We'll happily string razor wire around the new border. We'll even strap a parachute onto Glen Beck and drop his ass out over Dallas somewhere, he can be your Minister of Infomashun. You can sit there and try to run a nation on "tea-party politics".
Oh, and don't try to sneak under the wire and come back. We're adopting all of those worker verification procedures that you've always wanted, so there won't be any jobs for you. And we'll be looking for all of those "illegal Texican immigrants", you can make book on that.

We'll have our proud Mexican immigrants patrol the border to keep America safe, and run they can run the detainee facilities with as much oversight as GWB would approve of.
