LET'S PUT THE QUESTION: DOES THE STATE OF TEXAS AND GOD LOVE TO EXECUTE? YES I THINK!

Do Texas and God love to execute? Your thoughts about this? Yes or no?

Texas will almost certainly reach the grim total of 400 executions in 25 years this month, far ahead of any other American state. The toll is testament to the influence of the state's conservative evangelical Christians and its cultural mix of Old South and Wild West. Some critics say the South can be seen in the racial bias of death sentencing, more than 41 per cent of the inmates on death row in Texas are black, but blacks are only about 12 per cent of the state's population.

In America God is allegedly a little different, he wears a big cowboy hat and a semi automatic hand gun, delivers justice via an electric chair and apparently has an IQ of 3, the ‘turn the other cheek’ and ‘love each other’ God was allegedly replaced in favour of the furiously stupid and psychopathic God by popular vote in America in 1832, how one can balance the apparent ‘goodness’ of God with a corrupt death penalty system that seems to have a penchant for executing black people is something claimed only a bible thumping Texan could understand. Amen.
