I guess one big difference was that it was a cop who was killed, so they thought they had to make someone pay

seven who would sign affidavits, but none who would recant inside a courtroom. 30+ witnesses who could place Davis shooting a gun at either of two shootings that night, including friends of Davis testifying he did it. Shell casing from the same gun found at both crime scenes=physical evidence. Don’t believe lies published in the media or the internet. The death penalty must be abolished, but the truth must always upheld.
One confessed and threw himself on the mercy of the state and the other didn’t?
One killed a cop, the other didn’t?

I suspect that the left guy being accused of killing one of The King’s Men played a far more important role in his being sentenced to death than the color of his skin.
One plead guilty, no doubt after working out a deal to get life instead of the death penalty. The other did not. Add in the fact that pretty much none of the stuff posted under Troy Davis’ photo is true and well, that’s why the sucker was put to death.
Nobody cares about the convicted murderer on the right except as a tool to try to exonerate the convicted murderer on the left. Why isn’t the other man who was executed in Texas the exact same day as Davis used for comparison? No one cared about him and executing a white murderer does not support the claim or the inference that the death penalty is somehow discriminatory against blacks.
I think one guy has glasses and the other took a plea bargin sparing his life. While the other tryed to get out of it. No matter what they both look like murdere’s. rememeber Jail is full of innocent people!

Is the point of this picture that people who are nearshighted get treated differently?
Possible the truth of the matter is that it’s generally a good idea not to murder policemen, especially in front of a parking lot full of witnesses. That will not end well…and a half dozen appeals will not save your sorry ass.
one’s black, nu’ff said
Still sort of depressing

Convicted.
A cop have no more importance than anyone else.
