It's pretty telling that the loudest applause of the night seems to be for Rick Perry killing people.
If only he had bragged about the stay of execution he denied to an innocent man, he certainly would’ve gotten a standing ovation.

I do not believe in the death penalty. 68% of the time they make mistakes — and it’s so racist too. More than half the people getting the death penalty are poor blacks. This is the one place, this is the one remnant of racism in our country: the court system, enforcing the drug laws, and enforcing the death penalty. I don’t even know, but I wonder how many people have been executed — over 200? — I wonder how many were minorities. If you’re rich, you usually do not get the death penalty. And the DNA evidence now has proven people innocent. I don’t think it’s a very good sign for civilization to still be invoking the death penalty.
Ron Paul
Tumblr’s left-wing hacks won’t reblog this because it doesn’t fit the trite narrative of Ron-Paul-is-a-white-supremacist-lol. Also because they seem to not give a shit about anything that actually matters.
