BREAKING NEWS
Troy Davis has been DENIED Clemency!
The Whole Damn System is Guilty!
Tuesday morning, September 20:
The Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles has
denied Troy Davis clemency. This means that they
have upheld his execution which is scheduled for
Wednesday, September 21 at 7:00pm.
This
is a complete and utter outrage and shows
once again the bankruptcy of a
system that will
execute a potentially innocent man in the face of
mounting evidence of reasonable doubt.
ACT NOW!
Demonstrations are taking place in Georgia today
and tomorrow. [Plan your own or link up with ones
going on near you.]
Call the Chatham County (Savannah) District
Attorney Larry Chisolm and demand he seek a
withdrawal of the death warrant and support
clemency himself.
