Please take the poll and pass it on. 

Thomas Arthur has been on Alabama's death row for over 26 years for a murder he did not commit.  Definitive DNA tests were available 20 years ago, but Arthur was repetedly refused the right to prove his innocence.  Finally this year, Arthur was granted the right to DNA testing, and THE DNA TESTS PROVED ARTHUR IS INNOCENT!  But just like Supreme Court Justice Scalia wrote in the Troy Davis matter, proving "actual innocence" after conviction does not necessarily mean you won't still be executed or spend your life behind bars if you had a trial already!  Alabama still wants to kill Thomas Arthur because authorities allegedly caught him in a lie he told to avoid wrongful execution last year.  Should Arthur be executed, despite his innocence, because he told a fibb?

Poor whites are in the slave class along with African Americans and Latinos.  Justice is not about race, but socio-economic status.  At my online organization, ASSISTANCE TO THE INCARCERATED MENTALLY ILL, most of my members are Caucasians, and their sick relatives are tossed in jail and solitary confinement just like Mr. Frank Horton was in Nashville's CCA facility.

It is time we learn the truth of what MLK told us years ago:  "Come together as brothers, or perish together as fools."

Thanks for taking the poll and sharing it.
