mitsu. mom said i was following dad around like a puppy right. what are you doing where you going and he would ask me if i wanted to go to the store so i didn't notice i was doing this but he they said that when i would go to go to the store with dad just to get milk or something. i would walk up to the front door and just stand there because i still hadn't developed our redeveloped the habit of reaching out open a door i spent the entirety my dull life walking up the doors and stop and wait no somebody else to open the door and i didn't realize i was still do it he'd be like standing behind me like you can open the door not in that scene looking so i'd step out of the way and let him open the door until they called it to my attention i realize how stupid that was and are not stupid but just weird so i had to make a conscious effort to say ok i'm going to open the door today and be aware that

10:35 pm
to kill himself several times over. in defiance of. or despite the rules and procedures that are put in place to prevent such a thing on the afternoon of robert's execution he took enough drugs to kill himself several times over when it was discovered the the agents for the state of oklahoma instead of letting that man die which was their objective that day is that he leave this earth he did it for them instead of allowing his death in this peaceful manner that he chose by drug overdose they rushed him to the hospital pumped his stomach gave him the drugs to counter act the narcotics took him back to prison in two hours later they executed him they strapped him to a table stuck a needle in his arm and took his life. it is the most bizarre and frightening thing that happened to me when i was on death row and of all of the horrors that i had to

gas pellets to liquidate people in gas chambers nobody wants to be linked to the nazis we can all agree that was among the worst regimes that ever existed in humanity and it's easy to point the finger at the nazis and say how terrible they were but the historical antecedents of the american death penalty today come in large part from the nazis. who is coral brant no american knows hitler's personal physician but he gave us the idiology of using a needle to kill people in the name of the law because it was easier for those who didn't who put the needle in the arm this is america if we're going to say how great lethal injection is then let's give credit to where credit is due and give credit to karl brandt and the nazis for coming up with a bad idea well i don't see that it's categorically more violence than been
10:42 pm
forcibly dragging a person off to be locked in a cage forever. you know it's not the kind of thing that i think of when i think of the word violence i think of. far more bloody and painful punishments than than. a procedure that is basically is similar to what is done for a medical procedure except that the person doesn't make up. that that is what strikes me is that is what the term violence are for easter.

i would pretty much to be able to. work that way and the saddest part is that the state of texas gets their way and they execute him i won't be allowed to touch him until after he's dead. tell me what about that other states at least let you have a last visit with your family state of texas. you can visit but it's still perplexing. we keep making jokes about getting real friendly with regards to me and my mother so we can just hand through the window
10:45 pm

10:47 pm
and one of his first roy. after he got locked up. the first time i looked at that crowd for our. cause when you look at it you know that what they're feeling. that's what their thoughts are. in this one. that was one of my favorite because it's just so pretty any color. i wish he would concentrate more on the pretty pieces. that they had tied death penalty. there's one there's a big story about this. the first time tony made this piece the hand looked to life like. they literally took it away. took down his entire sale. took the hand took everything he had with it. told him the hand was made
10:48 pm
for an escape attempt. and my son and he would wouldn't even think about going to skate but to be on it did happen. so i don't work you think about it ok i feel i mean concentrating. on native american stuff even the african man. my unicorn. pretty. to me that's what i want work it out but he left that. everybody says tony shouldn't be there tell him he's got an excellent case to be able to get relief and be out of there to be able to literally walk free from death row but all these people that keep telling us i mean. their words
10:49 pm
and we're not being shown anything nobody we're not one step closer now than we were fourteen years ago to actually seeing him walk out the door and because we deal with it every week when we go to visit whether we talk about it or when we put our hands up on that window and say love you take care of the chances aren't really very good. and now it's getting to the point where they've executed more and more of his friends most of the ones that i knew when i first started seeing him and i've met some of them met some of those family and gotten to know most of those have been executed already. two or three left that are still alive that i knew before and he flew
10:50 pm
than what to him are his the last of his friends and he says every time there's another execution it seems like he dies a little bit more inside i don't see the justice and i can guarantee you that all of the people that say it brings closure i think they're going to be very disappointed i don't think it's going to bring any closure to anybody i just don't.

we are sitting here and we can look back on an america that used to have slavery and shake our heads in disbelief that how could this country have slavery for two hundred forty six years and think it was ok but during that time those people thought it was ok it was a norm for them the way the death penalty is a norm for us. so things change in society society grows it becomes better it just does it at a very slow and frustrating pace and that's what will happen in this country with this issue we will ultimately reach a point where the average person in this country. accepts the idea that killing people in the name of the law is not good it is not
