Do you support the death penalty?
The pertinent, black-on-Black details about Tookie are at libradio.com. And to ask me, “Do I support the death penalty?” comes from an interrogator that is leading me into an implied assumption that I commune at peace with the system that implements the death penalty. Past experience informs me that the interrogator is very likely to be unable to see this implied assumption. It follows that we should not have the exchange at all. So let’s say nothing for now and postpone this discussion.
