Will The Anti-Death Penalty Left Care?

Army sets date for its first execution since 1961

The Army has set a date for its first execution in nearly 50 years.

The military said Thursday that former North Carolina soldier Ronald A. Gray is to be executed Dec. 10 at the federal prison complex in Terre Haute (TEHR’-uh HOHT), Ind. He was convicted of multiple rapes and murders.

Army Secretary Pete Geren ordered that the former cook die by lethal injection. President Bush approved the execution in July.

ImagineÂ if Gray was a cop killerÂ or guy who started oneÂ of the most violent gangs in America. Or a terrorist. There wouldÂ beÂ candlelite vigils, protests, web pages,Â petitions. The ACLU wouldÂ be suing. But, no,Â he isÂ a soldier,Â so,Â eh, not worth their time.

And, yes,Â heÂ should get the death penalty, just likeÂ anyoneÂ who didÂ what Gray did.

Yes the left will care and of course will hope that the decision might be better left to the incoming POTUS

“May No Soldier Go Unloved”
