Mark Steyn on Arnold's Austria "Problem"

When Arnold decided to let someone who killed 4 people in cold-blood die of lethal injection, his home town of Graz, Austria not only disagreed with his decision, they accused him of committing some sort of state crime. Arnold told them to go jump a stump and furthermore they could take his name off their stadium and forget he ever lived there. Here is a wonderful link to Mark Steyn's review of the situation and a taste of it is given below. Read it all:

One day, a few years after the Trapps skedaddled out of there, a young man was born near Graz. His name was Arnold and he worked out every day and he went to America and became Governor of California and one morning he had to make a decision on whether or not to commute the death sentence of a multiple murderer called Tookie Williams. And he decided instead to let Tookie’s execution go ahead.

And back in his old stomping grounds of Graz the politicians went bananas. In the old days, when some local lad made good and became Fuhrer of another state and started killing people, the hometown crowd couldn’t wait to have a big ol’ Anschluss with him. But times change and contemplating Arnold’s reign of terror his fellow Grazis decided they wanted to disAnschluss themselves from him. Outraged by Tookie’s demise, Social Democratic and Green councilors and MPs immediately took action. Or what passes for “action” in European politics these days.
