So was Earl Williams insane? (spoilers)
The movie makes a big to-do about whether or not Williams is insane--and therefore whether his death sentence is unjust. However, I thought the actual reason his sentence was unjust was because he shot the cop accidentally, not in cold blood as part of a "red" plot, as the Powers At Be make it sound. Williams doesn't seem crazy (except maybe for the bit about sending a bomb to JP Morgan only to get it sent back for insufficent postage) just very naive, almost childlike. I'm surprised this took precedence over the fact that the murder was an accident, especially when I'm not entirely sure he was crazy.
