Armband Alert: Rhoades,ID,11/18/11

Please wear a black wrist band today, 11/18/11, in silent protest of the execution of Paul Rhoades by the government of the state of Idaho.  Mr. Rhoades will be poisoned for the 1987 murders of Susan Milchelbacher and Stacy Dawn Baldwin. 

Paul Rhoades has a pending appeal alleging that Idaho’s use of lethal injection to kill people is unconstitutionally ‘cruel and unusual’.   It is unconscionable for Idaho to execute him before this issue is settled.
