Where Were the Protesters?

Last week when Paul Hill was executed, Joshua Claybourn noticed there were few protestering the execution. I admit, I wasn't screaming about how Hill shouldn't have been killed. Since I'm in the minority on this issue and with this country's infatuation with the death penalty (not as black a mark as legalized abortion) I didn't feel compelled to comment. Every few weeks someone is being killed by the state. When I find out about it I sigh a little knowing it didn't ease anyone's pain or bring anyone back from the dead.
