Save Yong Vui Kong!

Yong Vui Kong, 22, was arrested in June 2007 on drug charges. Singapore imposes a MANDATORY DEATH SENTENCE for all drug trafficking. Yong Vui Kong has exhausted all his appeals. His last hope rests on presidential clemency. Please click on the photo to sign a petition urging Singapore's President to commute Yong's death sentence to a prison sentence. Thank you!

Polunsky Unit - Welcome to Hell

Texas' Death Row is a disgrace to the state of Texas. Click on the photo above to view 50 recent annotated pictures of the 'living' conditions on Texas' Death Row. These photos were provided by the State of Texas in response to a Freedom of Information Act request filed by attorney Yolanda Torres. They were then posted on Thomas Whitaker's blog, "Minutes Before Six". Mr. Whitaker is currently on Death Row in the state of Texas.

The little you can do, the very little you can do, do it, for honor's sake, yet without illusion.
Théodore Monod

Whoever destroys a soul, it is considered as if he destroyed an entire world. And whoever saves a life, it is considered as if he saved an entire world.
The Talmud

Civilization and violence are antithetical concepts. Through violence you may murder a murderer, but you can't murder murder. Through violence you may murder a liar, but you can't establish truth. Through violence you may murder a hater, but you can't murder hate. Darkness cannot put out darkness, only light can do that.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

One is absolutely sickened, not by the crimes that the wicked have committed, but by the punishments that the good have inflicted.
Oscar Wilde

I am constantly amazed by man's inhumanity to man.
Primo Levi

Capital punishment would be more effective as a preventive measure if it were administered prior to the crime.
Woody Allen

When life is holding by a thread, how expensive the price of thread!
Daniel Pennac

Lasciate ogni speranza, voi ch'entrate.
Dante, Inferno

An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind.
Mahatma Gandhi

It would take me a long time to understand how systems inflict pain and hardship in people's lives and to learn that being kind in an unjust system is not enough.
Sister Helen Prejean, Dead Man Walking

The worst in the worst is expecting the worst.
Daniel Pennac

You can take away our names and replace them with numbers, cage and store us in conditions not even fit for your family dog, and exterminate us at your whim, but we are still human beings, capable of everything from love and beauty to violence and hate.
Thomas B. Whitaker (Texas Death Row inmate #999522)

This is an execution, not surgery. Where does that come from, that you must find the method of execution that causes the least pain?
Antonin Scalia, U.S. Supreme Court Justice, on why the lethal injection protocol used in Kentucky did not qualify as cruel and unusual and therefore was not unconstitutional.

Almost all my [Death Penalty] clients should have been taken out of their homes when they were children. They weren't. Nobody had any interest in them until, as a result of nobody's interest in them, they became menaces, at which point society did become interested, if only to kill them.
David R. Dow, Texas Public Defender Service attorney
