Alito Opposes Mo. Execution

[gilliam]

New Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito split with the court’s conservative Wednesday night, refusing to let Missouri execute a death-row inmate contesting lethal injection. Alito, handling his first case, sided with inmate Michael Taylor, who had won a stay from an appeals court earlier in the evening. Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas supported lifting the stay, but Alito joined the remaining five members in turning down Missouri’s last-minute request to allow a midnight execution.

It was funny because the headlines for this read, “Alito votes against conservatives”

People don’t seem to realize that catholics are not conservatives or democrates.

Good for him.

AMEN BROTHER ALITO!!!

If this continues, we’re about to experience more strength of character in our high courts than we’ve seen in over 40 years!

Alito didn’t split with conservatism, he split with modern secularism…and with his intellect I’m certain his decision is supported in law.

Today the death penalty, tomorrow…
