www.mastalk.com/mastalk/faulkner/justice_for_faulkner.htmMumia Abu Jamal is a convicted cop killer, who confessed to killing Daniel Faulkner and who wrote Black Panther propaganda about killing police. Twenty five years later, he's still alive and in prison, instead of having been administered the death penalty he was given in 1982 by a mixed jury. A lot of celebrities think they have to support the cause du jour, and for some reason, Mumia attracts a lot of supporters. I'm sure none of them are as supportive of the FOP or the PBA. For my part, I boycott anyone who has anything to do with Mumia and that list includes Rage Against the Machine and the Beastie Boys (both of whom I adore musically, but I will not buy their music), and Ben and Jerry's (awesome ice cream, shitty politics). Other supporters include Ed Asner, Paul Newman, Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins, and Mike Farrell. Make your own decisions, but I refuse to support this cop killer or anyone who supports him. Read the entire story before you judge the judicial system, as most of the world already has.

hey ass, reply to that thread. ADDRESS.
I think killing cops is fine, but keep that type of shit behind closed doors. What you do in your home is your business, I don't want to hear about it.

Sorry man, I been busy. More facts, and the COMPLETE court transcript (all 5000 pages), which NONE of the Mumia supporters have ever referenced or displayed, can be found at www.danielfaulkner.com . Also available on this site, the many myths perpetrated by the defense, and the rebuttals to those myths. I'm OK with Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon opposing the war in Iraq. But their support of Mumia Abu Jamal is baseless and frivolous. |

Too bad only a few people cared about the West Memphis Three, those CHILDREN accused of murder, when no evidence was present aside from their personal taste in music and clothing. One of them is dead now, right? The others in for life. Pretty sad that people only care about some poor opressed negro.
You know, black people talk to much about 'the man,' but when it comes to someone like OJ, they sure get their shit together and make up some bullshit. And there's always that threat of riots, omg can't have the monkeys rioting. Society as a whole makes me sick, someone should just nuke us. Plz?

Also the case of the West Mephis Three is way different from the Mumia Abu Jamal case. For one thing, there were eyewitnesses who actually saw Jamal shoot Daniel Faulkner several times. Also, he was found at the scene sitting on a curb maybe 20 yards away, with the murder weapon at his side. And he was heard by several witnesses at the hospital where he was treated as saying "I shot that motherfucker, I hope that motherfucker dies."
On the other hand, no murder weapon was ever entered into evidence against the WM3. There were no witnesses, no forensic evidence placing the boys at the scene of the murders. During the HBO filming of the documentary, the stepfather of one of the murder victims presented the HBO producer with a hunting knife as a gift. The producer submitted the knife to a local lab who ascertained that there was human blood on it, and that it matched the blood type of at least one of the victims.
Now, HBO did a doc on Mumia Abu Jamal that spun in favor of the defense and bought into their myths. Because of that, it makes their credibility a little suspect to me. But I've been a supporter of the WM3 since I first saw their case in Paradise Lost, and my opinion of that case has never changed.

That's such a load, who would give a knife covered in blood to an HBO producer as a gift? Why give him a knife at all?

That dude is flat out crazy. It's widely believed that he was the actual murderer, but he's never had charges brought against him because from day one, the police said their case against the three boys was "11" out of ten. Ridiculous. Meanwhile this whack-a-doodle is walking the streets scot-free. "No physical evidence linked either Echols, Misskelley or Baldwin to the crime, and bite marks on one of the victims didn't match any of the three. Plus, the obvious main suspect, the stepfather of one of the victims, presented documentary filmmakers with a knife stained with blood that matched the type of one of the victims! Even the father of one of the victims said, "I believe the wrong people are in prison for this crime."" Justice for the West Memphis Three |

Hey, we should make a new West Memphis Three thread, and keep talking about the cop-killer Mumia in this one.
