We're definitely approaching the Texas model. We just had an execution a month ago. And I'll be back at San Quentin on Monday night [January 16], unless the Supreme Court intervenes, to protest the execution of Clarence Ray Allen. And then Michael Morales will be either next month or March.

Today is a shameful day in the history of American jurisprudence, ... Today the U.S. Supreme Court has said in its ruling essentially that it is OK .

What Stan hopes this accomplishes is that it further strengthens the message of his work. He didn't want a movie that glorified gang violence. He wanted a movie that accurately and fairly depicted his redemption and his message for kids.

The new Roberts court has sent a powerful and compelling message and that message is we don't give a damn about minorities in this country.

The young people to whom he speaks have no hope. What Stan presents is hope that they too can change. He is worth far more to society alive than dead.

His story is not ending here.

If they think they succeeded by killing him in getting people to forget about him, they have done just the opposite.

Today is a shameful day in the history of American jurisprudence. Today the U.S. Supreme Court has said in its ruling essentially that it is OK for a white prosecutor to kick all of the African Americans off of a jury.

Before they killed him, they enacted one last act of cruel and unusual punishment. They pretended they couldn't find the vein and caused him to writhe in pain. This went on for 25 minutes. And it took 10 minutes to kill him. A reporter called me the next day and said she had never seen such a barbaric scene.
