Ed, I’m calling about the legislation to do away with the death penalty. Basically, anyone on death row now should be grandfathered under the old law. They should be given their sentence. Anyone convicted after the new law is passed should get life with no parole. But those convicted before the new law, tough luck, buddy. See you in the next life.
