Another great Daily Pep Talk From A Best Friend.
On the urban planning tip, the cost of urban freeways.
This gets to my frustration with peoples focus on organizations like the Innocence Project as a driving force behind the fight against capital punishment - Opposing the death penalty is not about innocence: "The hunt for the identity of a wrongfully executed person reflects the need to put a face on one particular critique of capital punishment. That hunt is admirable and, if structured the right way, well worth the cost. But the "innocence" critique need not have a face to be right, and the myriad other critiques of our perverse capital punishment system should not all stand or fall on our ability to specifically identify a wrongful execution."
