That's why it's an exceptional event when it happens anyway.

And, as I said, I wasn't talking about letting him out.

No, what I was calling vengeance was a brother of a victim calling for his death "
on the basis that his brother had been sentenced to die by Tookie with no possibility of parole". And I'm not saying that the case was handled poorly, or incorrectly. I'm just saying that there was a good case for a governor's commutation of the sentence.

Want me to post the pics of Tookie's victims? He got a far easier end to his time on earth than his victims did. He should've been ecstatic that he didn't die like they did.

That's vengeance.
