Glad you guys liked it as much as I did. There are MANY theories floating around on the net alluding to what happens when it goes black. I'm of the opinion that nothing happened, that this is how it will be for the rest of his life (whenever it ends)...constantly looking over his shoulder, checking the reflection in the jukebox for any threats, always being uneasy and never with his defenses down. That is the price payed for the life he has chosen. Or he just got capped...(I think it was Tony and Bobby who, a few episodes earlier, were talking about what it might be like to die. How it just uneventfully goes black...very much like the ending itself)

I like snoop, but if that's the best he can do without a script...threaten violence against critics between joints...pathetic. And the fact some of you see nothing wrong with his threats because after all, snoops is just a po' black former gang member who can rhyme cat with hat, while O'Reilly is the Big Bad White Meany...ye gods, give it up. You can no more judge me than argue with ingested poison.

The line about Holland? It's called a JOKE...HUMOR, certainly not A-list material, but any kind of humor is Public Enemy #1 to these dour-faced liberal intellectuals trying to save the world. Now if you find my stuff offensive you're an idiot, because almost everyone here has watched Chris Rock and Chappelle and both say far worse and no one calls them on it.

Some of these fellows on the left like to pretend they've never said the word nigger; it's against the edicts of the liberal religion. According to liberals, blacks are inferior and deserving of special help, even though black people have been around for thousands of years longer than the racist democrap party. Remember, Republicans FREED the slaves long before liberals re-shackled the minds of far too many with their poor-me victim nonsense.

Not that any of you deserve an explanation, the reason why I went off on Kanye West is because he's a fking moron; he used the time and money of a well-known rescue organization trying to raise money for victims of a national disaster to wax druggetic in a dumbass tirade against the President, who has no control over the weather. It won't ever be known how many would-be donors he turned off with his idiotic rant, and the only reason libtards support this idiot or are afraid to criticize is because he's melanin-enhanced?

What if Mike Myers had gone off on Jesse Jackson like West did Bush...Myers would've have been crucified by the drive-by media.

The tyranny of a minority--hiding behind a certain peoples, using them as shields for so-called "sensitivity"--is what too many lefties are about.

Remember, I put up with many of the characters around here as well: pro-homicide bombing, Palestinian lovers, unrepentant Stone Age Muslims, obnoxious atheists (do you really think more than 2 people watch 2 minutes of those hour-long Dawkins- fests)? and various assorted Green Day-loving high school seniors.

Believe it or else, I really don't have hatred for anyone here...your opinions are your own.

If I were running VS, I would not ban a single one of you for voicing an opinion. Unlike the PC'ers, I don't fear differences of opinion. And many who cyber-hate me feel about the same. Keep going!

I've seen reports from American media of investigations into such cases. That people have been underdosed to prolong the time taken to death. Or they use the paralysing agent, but not the pain supressing agent so that it appears as though they're peaceful. Conditions that are apparently not even fit for animal euthenasia. Disgraceful.

I would not be suprised at all if many of these cases were of malice toward the convict.

If you're gonna do this, get an uncorruptable organisation to do these killings or just DON'T do it at all. (Need I point out the likelyhood of finding one of these?)

Edit: (To take a side..)
You just cannot be black and white about the usefulness of death as punishment - for the reasons that Prof. Agnus Heller(sp?) from the New School for Social Research said in her interview on Penn & Teller:

"Deterrance is the worst most fraudulent principle. The death penalty has no deterrent effect because murder is comitted for three different reasons or motivations. First passion. Second, profit. And third, compulsion.
- If it's for profit, the people who kill for profit do it very rationally. They are always convinced that they will not be caught:
- Second, passion crimes cannot be deterred - if you hate your husband that much that you kill your husband, no punishment can deter you.
- And the worst is ofcourse, crimes by compulsion. If a sexual criminal kills a child, for example. Unfortunately, these are the kind of criminal, violent acts which cannot be deterred at all because it is a compulsion."

There is no proof that harsh punishment will completely deter the future committals of crime. So why not be humane and keep them locked away, so that they may never harm again.

Bigots such as yourself, Jozeph, always seem to think/speak as if the millions of Black people in this country immigrated or even sought refuge here from their homeland trying to create a new, better life, but decided instead to become poor and uneducated.

It's really very apparent that human beings are simply animals when considering how many of us supposedly intelligent people so easily possess such prejudice and ignorance. Racists such as yourself always find it so easy to discount the fact that millions of Black people were taken forcibly by slave export companies in Africa and enslaved for hundreds of years (I'm sure if you had it your way they'd still just be slaves) and during that time they were strictly restricted from any form of education and treated equally to mere livestock. This could not help but result in evolving new, unique social traditions, cultures, and attitudes different from any non-slaves, White or not. (This is also the origin of the still common dialect inherent in many Black communities. The were only able to pick up pieces of the "proper" English spoken by their captors.)

Once slavery finally ended in America, which happened only recently, relatively speaking (150 years ago - a mere 8 generations), Black people were still treated as animals throughout the nation, released onto their asses without a prayer for a "normal" life with a home, job, or education. It was all but impossible to make any type of personal advancement when they were all treated as sub-human creatures by everyone around them.

They were brought to this country with absolutely nothing and after hundreds of years of slavery and just a few generations free from it, finally (only a couple of decades ago) they were legally given equality in every way (meaning education, segregation, etc.). Just because they have gained legal equality does not mean they have it any better when having to navigate life in a country still filled with hatemongers like yourself. The government has been attempting to help advance the African American societies it has held back for so long through housing, employment, and other programs as a simple attempt to help increase opportunities for advancement; it's the least that can be done in attempt to provide some measure of equivalence and some means to try erasing the past.

In short, you and people like you, Jozeph, are convinced that since the government finally, begrudgingly granted legal equality 40 years ago (in part, through the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965) there is nothing more preventing all Black Americans from immediately achieving affluence and your apparent idea of social equality. However, given all of the history that got them where they are today including the vast racism/hatred/prejudice still inherent in most non-Blacks, they are severely handicapped with regard to their ability to achieve true equality. All the communities that have evolved from bigotry/slavery are expected by bigots to wipe their history and all of its influences clean while they are still being looked down on just for being Black and having that history imprinted in them.

They are not who they are because they are Black. They are who they are because they were forcibly made that way over hundreds of years and through millions of lives. The very best that can be done to help the situation is to forcibly undo in decades what took centuries to do, but, unfortunately, even that gives you cause to hate. The only way people like you will truly be satisfied is if they are all victims of genocide.

wow, Hugh Laurie should really just stick to Black Adder stuff. This was terrible!
