Dial M for Murder. Or H for Hypocrisy. Marcellus Williams was executed by the Missouri government tonight. A man was improperly convicted and cold-heartedly killed, all by the same Republicans that will be on Fox News this week crying about how Pro-Life they are.

Missouri, where the literacy rate is below average, couldn’t have its elected leaders and judges read a petition with over 1 million signatures to stop this injustice. They apparently aren’t literate enough to read the New Testament, which a man named Jesus Christ, who they seem to pretend to worship, says to ‘love thy neighbor’.

Missouri, where their state’s legislature did change the definition of discrimination in 2017 to create confusion with the federal laws, to help discriminate more. I mean, should we be surprised that the government who refused to comply with fair housing laws, couldn’t have a stay of execution and merely house one more innocent man in their jails? That may have been too much to ask for.

Missouri, where they currently ban abortion at all stages of pregnancy with no exceptions, did not make an exception to save a life tonight. If you hear someone playing ‘Someone Saved My Life Tonight’ by Elton John anywhere in Missouri, it will just be a sarcastic spin of the record.

After Republican politicians saw Marcellus Williams was not a white woman, they went on with their daily business. White women don’t get wrongly convicted in America. If they do somehow go to jail, they don’t end up in the Electric Chair, they end up on Dancing With The Stars, with a monitor around their ankle.

The prosecutors admitted they were wrong.

The jurors who convicted him did not want him to be executed.

One million signatures of its own citizens saying please don’t do this.

The victim’s family is also opposed. to him being sentenced to death.

If Mr. Williams did get the stay of execution, he wouldn’t have been out in the streets, but he would still be in jail, living.

SCOTUS could have halted the execution, like the movies, but there isn’t a handsome Hollywood actor being wronged here.

Missouri Republicans have more important things on their mind, such as, will The Chiefs win this Sunday? In their eyes, not having the right amount nachos at their tailgate would be the real travesty.

Governor Mike Parson DID pardon Britt Reid, son of Kansas City Chiefs head coach, after he crippled a five year-old girl and was arrested for drunk driving. But unfortunately Marcellus Williams isn’t affiliated with The Chiefs.

Was there a shadow of a doubt in this case? Yes. There’s so much of a shadow, that Lady Justice must be standing on the dark side of the moon.

Jesus has told us, if you care, ‘whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ No government official intervened. That was the least they could do.

When protestors say, ‘no justice, no peace’, they want a better world to live in. The GOP gave Mr. Williams no justice, but for them, they’re at peace.
