Andrea Yates

Andrea Yates is attempting to starve herself to death out of grief over killing her kids.

Good for her.  I hope that goes well for her.  

Don’t support the death penalty?  Read this and tell me you don’t want to see this sorry excuse for a human being rot in hell.

  1. I’d prefer to keep her alive.. give her lots of time to think about what she did, and set an example for other people who might have the same ideas

  2. I’d rather her idiot husband tried that. He went out of his way to keep her in a situation that made her mentally unstable and then kept making it worse by convincing her to pop out even more kids and stay home with them and school them—all that after the first one was enough to send her off the rails. The sheer breadth of his capacity for denial is astounding.

    Not that I’d let Andrea off the hook or anything either. But gads, I wish some justice had come Russell’s way. For his part in all this he may as well have stood there holding towels.

  3. I tried to read through the Yates transcript. It is just too disgusting.

    Andres Yates should have been sentenced to die.  Keeping her alive merely encourages discussion which desensitizes the public to her heinous acts.  The result is a perception that her behavior is something that society has to tolerate. Ultimately, the do-gooder feel-sorry crowd try to minimize her responsibility and divvy it out to others.  The logical extension of that thinking is that everybody is responsible because we all breathe the same air.

    Imagine what the do-gooder crowd would be saying about Tim McVeigh if he were still breathing and giving interviews and maybe starving himself.  The government would be blamed and, don’t kid yourself, there’s plenty of the hate-America crowd who would do the finger-pointing.

    Andrea Yates is responsible for her actions, not her husband, not her mother, or a dog named Sam living next door.  She deserves execution.  Then she can join McVeigh, Bundy, Gacy, Albert De Salvo and others that share her values concerning human life.
