COMMENTARY     

Mikey (Salem, OR)
19th April 2006
California has a mere 19 more White inmates on death row as opposed to Black inmates. This information is shocking to say the least. I would be interested to know what the crimes commited by these African Americans are, and how many hundreds of White Californians have committed the same types of crimes but walk free, or are not condemned to death.
