Gas chamber back in California?!?

[silverweb]

2. We lost our supermajority in February.

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]Our legislature is still very strongly Democratic and, of course, we have Gov. Brown, who would veto any such legislation if it ever had a prayer of passing. I don't know if it will even make it to the floor or not, but I rather doubt it.

But that's not the point. The issue here, in my opinion, is that we have a state association of district attorneys that actually supports this heinous bill.

Public shaming is important in this case. The stronger public opinion becomes against the death penalty in general and against this bill in particular, the sooner we'll get like-minded DAs around the state and the closer we'll get to abolishing the death penalty completely in California.
