Did Texas execute an innocent man?

Ah, ok. I was just wondering why you were announcing your attentions to stop debating.

It's a fascinating topic - I was pro-death penalty for a while, and only over the past few years have I changed my mind.

It's just that I didn't think there was a need to keep going in circles. You stated facts, and I only have an opinion about it, so why keep debating?

So, why did you change your mind?

I also read your posts about your accident with that drunk driver (glad you're still here to chat about it) but whatever happened to him?

Not really sure why I changed my mind; it was more of a gradual change in my thought process. I think part of it is what Kevin was talking about (the problems with application), and part of me just began to have questions about whether I supported executing an individual.

As to the rest...the criminal process is ongoing for the driver, so I don't want to say much about it.
