Name: Scott Cobb on Nov 8, 2008Comments: The federal death penalty has been disproportionately sought against members of minority groups. Since 1988, the federal government has authorized seeking the death penalty against 382 defendants. Of the 382 approved prosecutions, 278 (73%) were against minority defendants.Flag

Name: Gilles DENIZOT on Nov 8, 2008Comments: Mr. President-elect, I live in Europe, where death penalty has been abolished and I am friend of America. I know your country well and I understand the sensitivity of this topic. Nevertheless the USA eventually will have to join the community of civilized countries who oppose this barbaric punishment. By abolishing death penalty, the USA will no longer be compared to Iran and China (and some others) who mercilessly murder human beings. Mr. President-elect, we have supported you during your campaign, we have placed great hopes in you, in the symbol you represent, a symbol of justice, respect, and righteousness. Please show us that we were right. YES YOU CAN abolish the death penalty! Respectfully yours, Gilles DENIZOTFlag

Name: Lenton Ray on Nov 8, 2008Comments: Captial punishment brings shame to our great nation. The United States is one of the few industrialized democracies that still practice this form of torture, and we must stop it. There are alternatives to the death penalty, and it is high time we started using them!Flag

Name: Eleanor Watkins on Nov 8, 2008Comments: Please, please show mercy and do not carry out this execution. There are at the least, grave doubts over the justice of this sentence. At worst, the untimely and unjustified killing of an innocent man would leave a stain on the record of the American judicial system. Please remember that our God is a God of justice, but who loves mercy.Flag

Name: Renate Mari on Nov 8, 2008Comments: Please stop the death penalty. There also innocent people still on death rows nationwide. 130 have so far been exonerated and this shows that there are far too many errors in the judical system and not adequate legal representation available to most persons in this situation.Flag
