(Pic of John Gilbride)That should be the question that is asked anytime the issue of MOVE or even Mumia is raised.For those of you who aren’t aware, the issue of Mumia’s guilt and possibility of freedom is settled and the possibility of MOVE members being released on parole after being convicted of murdering James Ramp is not very likely.So why even bother arguing back and forth with Mumia and

It has certainly been a while since I have posted on this blog and there are many reasons for this. Most of them are personal. To be sure, I haven’t exactly missed writing about MOVE and Mumia, but I do feel a sense of obligation in pursuing some of the issues of justice that remain un-addressed with regards to MOVE, so continue to do this I will.To me, there are really only two issues left for

(Somebody might do well to let the cadre of Mumia supporters know that a President cannot pardon someone who has not been convicted of a federal crime. It is one of those things in the U.S. Constitution that Pam claims to know so much about. Also, for the record, the President addressed the issue back when he was running for office, he said: "Let just me lay out a very clear principle: In my mind

Let me just put it out there in as plainly as possible. Mumia is not going to be freed from prison. He is not going to get a new trial. Conversly, he is not going to be executed. He will live out his days a guest of the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections and that is what he deserves.I write this and believe it as I have looked into the court rulings, precedents, as well as the fact that

By John HaydenAfter decades of legal appeals, the case of Mumia Abu-Jamal ambles onwards. The convicted murderer is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to nullify his 1st degree murder conviction on the ground of alleged "racism" in the June 1982 jury selection process, and give him a new trial. This comes twenty seven years after the ex-Black Panther shot a 25 year old cop in the back and in the
