I am told that the producers were quite irresponsible in omitting the names of many who pioneered the research in to the "Merikins". People like John Milton Hackshaw for example. He was a direct descendant and progenitor of the Amphy and Bashana Jackson Fraternity. For a long time now, people have been liberally stealing his research without crediting the man's life effort. That's a shame.

The death penalty deters one person for sure: the one who is hung. All societies have the right to punish as they see fit; and that includes having the death penalty. I am hard pressed to understand how a study can find out if the death penalty is no detereent to murder. Do they survey convicted murderers? Do they survey those who may have wanted to murder someone and changed their mind because of the possibility of being hung? Would people admit this?

As an objective observer, all I can say is that those PNM loyalists who continue to insist that they are "PNM till ah dead" need mental help (lots).

This is very disturbing. Very disturbing. If it is true then the PPP government will lose some credibility with many neutral folks.
