The vigil commemorated those who have been executed in the United States in the last two months. U of K law professor, Roberta Harding, spoke about the case of Gary Graham. Then the names of those executed in June and July were read, as well as the names of murder victims. There followed a moment of silence. This was the first in a series of bi-monthly vigils in Lexington. About 30 people participated in the vigil, including high school students and "veteran" activists.

Special event? Contact American Trophy for your promotional merchandise NBH students fight death penalty Related story: Death penalty vote coming By Amy Dipasqua Jope, Standard-Times correspondent, and Susan Pawlak-Seaman, Standard-Times staff writer NEW BEDFORD More than 30 students from New Bedford High School's Amnesty International Chapter turned out for a candlelight death penalty protest last night on the steps of City Hall to protest a death penalty bill now before the Legislature. The students listened to sociology Professor Dan Gilbarg and history Professor Marlene Pollock, both from Bristol Community College, speak against the death penalty bill now before the Legislature. Amanda Nelson, 16, designed all the signs the students held. Each sign displayed a fact that she had learned through information provided by Amnesty International. "I don't think it's right." said Amanda of the death penalty. Murder is wrong but "killing someone is going along with the same thing." Shanell Stallings, 16, agreed. "I've always thought the death penalty was wrong. Even if someone killed me they shouldn't be put to death. There's always a chance they could feel sorry. I believe in second chances." Shanell proudly displayed the sign she was carrying, which read, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind," a quote from pacifist Mahatma Gandhi.

The Importance of Compromise in a Representative Democracy" If you want to use these lesson plans in conjunction with a visit from a legislator, remember to coordinate your plans with the legislator. Specifically, if the activity requires preparation by the legislator, ask whether the legislator will be able to prepare. Also, if the students are interested in particular issues, alerting the legislator will likely make for a more interesting visit. Rationale of the Lesson Objectives At the conclusion of this Lesson, students should be able to. • understand that in a diverse society, such as ours, a wide range of views on important issues is normal and often helpful in giving us the best range of options from which we can make choices. • explain how the process of compromise works to aid in the legislative process.

The students, who urged Gov. Bob Taft to impose an immediate moratorium on executions, said yesterday that as many as 110 of Ohio's 203 death-row cases would not meet death-penalty recommendations developed by a reform commission in Illinois. They want Taft to appoint a similar panel.

40. Juvenile Death Penalty I do not entirely oppose the death penalty. But, I believe, with an overwhelmingnumber of Americans, that executing high school students is wrong. http://www.aleisenberg.com/JuvenileDeathPenalty.htm

Delegate Al Eisenberg (D) Virginia House of Delegates Abolish the Death Penalty for 16 and 17 Year Olds FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Rich mond, VA January 30, 2004 CONTACT: Sue Rafferty, Legislative Assistant,(804)698-1047 On February 4, 2004 Delegate Al Eisenberg made the following floor speech in the Virginia House of Delegates on the Juvenile Death Penalty (HB1341): "Virginia should abolish the death penalty for 16 and 17 year olds. I do not entirely oppose the death penalty. I would have pulled the lever myself to send the Nazi war criminals to hell. But, I believe, with an overwhelming number of Americans, that executing high school students is wrong. Yes, teenagers can and do commit horrendous crimes, and such crimes must be punished and harshly. And our hearts first and foremost must go out to the victims and their families. Yet, I believe that the ultimate penalty for teenagers does not belong in a civilized society. They are not adults, and we should not throw away all chance in salvaging a life from a life lost. The death penalty is losing favor. States have been reluctant to execute 16 and 17 year olds. A Gallup poll shows that 69 percent of Americans oppose the death penalty for offenders under 18.
