Another Murderer Going Down
Richard J
AUSTIN - Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott offers the following
information on James Paul Collier, who is scheduled to be executed after
6 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 11, 2002.
On April 24, 1996, James Paul Collier was sentenced to death for the
capital murder of Gwendolyn Joy Reed and her adult son, Timmy Reed,
during the same criminal transaction in Wichita Falls, Texas, on March
14, 1995. A summary of the evidence presented at trial follows.
FACTS OF THE CRIME
On the evening of March 14, 1995, James Paul Collier entered a home in
Wichita Falls, Texas, where Collier's daughter was spending her spring
break vacation, and shot and killed Gwendolyn Joy Reed and her adult
son, Timmy Reed. Neither of the two victims were related to Collier or
involved in a dispute with him, but Collier's daughter was visiting her
former stepfather, who lived in the house with Timmy Reed. After the
murders, Collier drove to New Mexico where he was apprehended. He gave a
videotaped confession, during which he admitted shooting the victims. In
his confession, Collier stated that he initially went into the home with
his rifle because he was angry at his ex-wife and daughter because they
refused to have contact with him and because he believed his daughter
had been sexually abused by her former stepfather. There was no evidence
that the former stepfather abused Collier's daughter.

PRIOR CRIMINAL HISTORY
Evidence was introduced during the punishment phase that Collier had
been convicted of two counts of selling narcotics (September and October
1970), robbery (July 1971), and assault (March 1987). The victim of
Collier's 1970 robbery testified that Collier sneaked up from behind him
and hit him in the head with an industrial-size broom, almost knocking
him unconscious. Collier then threatened to rape him, and to kill him
with a shotgun. The victim of Collier's 1987 assault testified that he
previously worked at a Sonic fast food restaurant, and that Collier
erupted when he did not find salt in the sack with his hamburger.
Collier pulled the 15 year old's shirt over his head so he could not
swing back, and then stomped the teenager in the face several times.
Evidence was also introduced regarding an unadjudicated assault in
December 1994, wherein Collier struck an individual on the head with a
beer bottle and cut his face, inflicting injuries which required
receiving approximately 380 stitches. In addition, in January 1995,
Collier was arrested for DWI and during an inventory of the vehicle, the
officer discovered an illegal sawed-off 12-gauge shotgun.
The State also presented testimony regarding Collier's physical assault
of one jailer and his threats toward other jailers while he was locked
up in the Wichita County Jail awaiting his capital murder trial.
Forensic psychiatrist Dr. Richard Coons testified that he reviewed the
three-and-a-half hour video-taped statement made by Collier the day
after the crime, and that he did not find any evidence that Collier's
judgment and insight were impaired by mental illness or that Collier was
insane at the time of the offense. Dr. Coons also stated that, based on
a hypothetical case matching all the evidence admitted at both stages of
trial, Collier would pose a continuing danger to society.

You really have no idea how many times I've wanted to do that when my burger
was wrong.
Of course, *wanting* to do it and *actually* doing it are two different
things.

I have come close to murder on several occasions regarding McDonald's...but
only in Great Britain, for some reason.
It is simple enough. I want my Quarterpounder with cheese plain. That's
plain. No relish, no lettuce, no sauce and NO FUCKING GHERKIN; just the
burger, the bun and the cheese.
But will they understand it? Not a chance. It is ASTONISHING just how
dense these bastards are, and how often they will give me a burger with all
the standard shit on it. And then, if I have already driven away and, let's
say, have eaten my fries first and already got five miles down the road, I
will raise my face to the heavens and scream the most vile string of
obscenity-laden curses that any man can conceive.
Incidentally, during the periods that I lived in California, and despite the
fact that every single staff member was always Hispanic, and usually had
extremely limited command of the English language, every McDonald's order I
EVER made there came back perfect.
Well, perfect in the sense that it was precisely as ordered. It was still
the identical carcinogenic, tasteless, coronary-inducing lard-fest, but that
is a different matter...
[And the Chicken McNuggets were far nicer in the U.S. This is because U.S.
McNuggets are approximately 60% leg meat (which I love) and about 40% breast
meat (which I find unappealing.) However, UK McNuggets have, for the last
decade or more, been 100% breast meat. Even back in the '80s, they were
never more than about 30% Good McNuggets, making a Good-winning box of nine
(five or more leg-meat McNuggets) a rare event. I used to love those
fuckers...I would identify the Good ones (leg meat) by touch and texture, or
failing that by a tiny bite, and save them till the end, when I would savour
them. Living in the U.S., therefore was like being a kid in a toy shop,
with Good McNuggets winning the box on a regular basis, including one
breathtaking, glorious, unbelievable, probability-defying 9-0 shutout
victory!
But why, I hear you ask, do I comment so knowledgeably on the accuracy of
U.S. quarterpounder orders, since I so clearly had the McNuggets every time?
Well, the answer is because like every good fat bastard, I had them both!
And a portion of fries, and a large strawberry milkshake, AND a fucking
apple pie too, most likely.]

The food is basically the same, but the help you appear to have trouble
with is English. Perhaps that's the problem.

I'm not much on the various chicken 'nugget' regardless ow who serves
them. Give me nice greasy fried chicken with the skin on and bone in,
please!
I DO like the quarter pounder, however I enjoy them with the catsup and
onions. Over here, McDonalds started serving what they call the 'Big
and Tasty' which is essentially a quarter pound hamburger with lettuce,
onion, and pickles served with mayo , mustard, and catsup or any
combination thereof. The price is only $1.oo US which makes them quite
a cheap meal.

<snip McDonald's anecdote made remarkable by the fact that SG

Only last week I entered the McDonald's at Leicester's Clock Tower. I
asked for a McChicken Sandwich with cheese.
"You can't have cheese on that" I was told.
"Pardon?"
"You can't have cheese"
"Why?"
"Erm. Dunno"
"Are you taking the piss?"
"We're not allowed to do that with cheese"
I thought it may be penny pinching at work.
"I'll pay for the cheese"
"Erm, (blank look) we can't do that"
So I went to Burger King and enjoyed the far superior Chicken Whopper
instead. I was allowed cheese on that. I shall never frequent a
McDonald's again.
Anyway, does anyone know why McDonalds branches in Leicester (I am
told by my bird that she too was refused cheese on a McChicken
Sandwich at the Braunstone Meridian franchise) do not alow 'extras'?
Perhaps research has shown that the chemicals present in the synthetic
chicken breast react badly with the chemicals in the synthetic
processed cheese and may cause explosions? Who knows? Who cares?

At the prices that the English pay for their fast food, I must confess
to being completely unsurprised. £4-odd (or maybe more - I can't
remember) for a fucking Big Mac, chips and a drink??? I regard the
stuff as being expensive and inedible _here_ (AU$6, i.e. £2 for the same
thing). You've got pubs in Leicester, haven't you? A half-decent pub
meal can be had for £5 and you can sit down in a nice place and have a
pint with it, too.
Some people just don't know how fucking lucky they are.

I must confess to having something of a soft spot for Burger King.
Every two months or so I am overcome by an overwhelming urge to traverse
the town to a suburb far, far less prestigious than my own in order to
negotiate the vending of some greasy comestibles. A Whopper meal
(upsized, in accordance with American tradition) later, I feel
thoroughly disgusted with myself. A guilty pleasure but a _fantastic_
guilty pleasure. Kind of like lard-covered protein in a sticky bun.
And you can fill your car up while you're there - the franchise is
integrated with a 7-11 and a service station. Yup, nothing but the most
concentrated havens of Western capitalism in my home town...or the
grottier bits of it in any case.

Hey Richard J AKA Teflon. How you doin'? I really had a big laugh over
the messages you'all posted about my McDonalds story. I laughed so
much that I decided to include the story on my web page, I hope
you'all don't mind.
You know, I don't mean to upset you guys, especially now that I've
left this world. I have shed my anger and am finally at peace.
Peace,

Yes it's me, Jiggy.
While I can be relied upon to occasionally pop up with a almost-comedically
off-topic troll/plea for attention, please do not allow yourself to revel in
the perception that I have 'returned', in any real sense, to enliven your
miserable existence with my witty, urbane, perceptive, cogent, topical
remarks, not to mention my impeccable use of grammar and syntax.
This is because I am bored to fucking tears with the bloody death penalty.
Who gives a toss anyway? The whole issue can be summed up as follows:
1) Some of them didn't actually do it
2) However, all of them are scumbags who have done plenty they _didn't_ get
caught for.
3) None of them are therefore any use to anyone alive.
4) However, killing them just makes you look like cunts yourselves.
End.
Because I am sure 2) is invariably true, I am confident that there is indeed
no such thing as an 'innocent', in the broader sense of the word, being
executed, so I'm really not that bothered about what the U.S. does with its
unusually large proportion of human detritus.
However, in accordance with 4), the fact that they're all scum is no excuse
to kill them, because Hey, guess what? Killing is Wrong!
It really is as simple as that; the issue is also unimportant in the broad
scheme of things, and due to the limits of the relevant arguments the debate
is farcically well-worn and hoary.
I really have got better things to do, like wanking my cock.

Apparently a common sense, proactive solution such as checking your
order before you drive away is as foreign to you as a common sense,
proactive solution such as the just Death Penalty. Little wonder that
europe remains a cesspool of "ethnic cleansing" and poor hygiene. :-(
