One thing could be happening for sure. God is acting upon his word, that he would take his hand off of us. We should be a Nation of Prayer but we're becoming a Nation of Thugs. RTR!

Around ten years back 3 Birmingham policemen were killed in Ensley going into a house. I believe the murderer is on deathrow now. Why wait so many decades to execute?

I say him to Texas tomorrow since they don't let it drag on as long.
