True, true...I remember when Bernie Getz thinned the herd in NYC...assaults stopped until he was caught...seems the thugs don't like an even playing field...I remember Ed Koch screeching like a 12 years old about vigilante justice.

No revelation here. Not only will they not go for the death penalty, they will defend the gangbangers rights and probably defend him with an excuse like... he ate too many twinkies as a child and therefore it is not his fault.

I submitted the screen play for this one...seriously.

Woman is widowed by a sociopath in a “no death penalty” state. Takes the large insurance settlement and buys a rifle and gun club membership. Buys a kit to make it a sniper rifle and learns to shoot it at looooong range. Yada, yada, yada...she whacks him.

Sorry...no takers on the screenplay.

Maybe I should have sent it directly RKO...or PickFair!

How horrible to loose your family all at once! For no reason. This little POS should be hung from a lamp post. The sooner the better!

Ah yes......San Fransicko..
Sanctuary City by the Bay......
Welcoming illegal immigrants with open open and empty heads.

Odds are 100% that the M13 Gang Banger who killed these folks, was an illegal immigrant, and one with prior criminal record who probably had no business being on the streets...

This will NOT change, until it is the families of politicians who get killed routinely on the streets — or until the dumb asses targeted by the killers start to realize that the morons they elect are allowing this to happen......in fact - even encouraging it by supporting illegal immigration and failing to prosecute to the full extent of the law...

San Fransicko’s police chief and District Attorney are more politically correct that competent.

google News search:

Bologna San Francisco - 292 (victim, the shooting suspect's name was not known until yesterday)

Higdon Henderson - 2,034 (the shooter)

More Society of Professional "Journalists" PC guidelines crap?

Both senseless, tragic acts and guns did it! but -- from the start each shooter's ethnicity was known. As I recall the reports at the time of the shooting witnesses gave police descriptions of the shooter's car and occupants.

Though Harris was the first public official in California to endorse Obama for president, she doesn’t volunteer much about their friendship, which began a few years ago during his race for U.S. Senate, when they were introduced by mutual pals. Almost the same age (he’s 45, she’s 42), with similarly polyglot backgrounds (white mother, Kenyan father; Indian mother, Jamaican father), they instantly clicked; they even look like brother and sister, points out Harris’s mother, UC Berkeley scientist Dr. Shyamala Harris. In addition to their movie-star charisma, they share post–baby boomer centrist-progressive politics and a big-picture way of thinking about the world that transcends race and class. Trained as lawyers and activists, Obama and Harris are not given to revolutionary talk or grandstanding gestures; instead, both approach their work as pragmatists and conciliators, always searching for common ground. Indeed, they seem so similar that someone who’s been both a booster and a critic of Harris tells me, “She’s like a female Barack Obama.”

The afternoon of my wife's burial was the most traumatic time in my life.

I completely connect with this woman, and pray God hears the prayers of the widow.

This is sad and tragic...and kudos to this woman for asking for the death penalty

Problem is that many GOPers share a lot of the similar pro-crime pro-illegal panderings of the far left. Many GOPers (McCain) support illegal alien amnesty...and would allow moral pig scum like MS-13 to remain in the country. You also have GOPers like Hannity now getting weak on the death penalty

We must deport all illegals, and, enforce the death penalty. No illegal has more rights than an American citizen...and no criminal has more rights than a victim

My wife’s attitude would be “You’d better hope the police get to you first.” Then there would be a series of slow, painful deaths in the following weeks. I’m more merciful, I’d just shoot them.

"This is a horrific tragedycrime most painfully felt by the family and friends of these innocent victims and shared by our entire city"

Gang members are TERRORISTS, plain and simple. Mere *membership* in a gang like MS-13 should be illegal, punishable under RICO statutes, with the perp serving at least 10 years hard time. Deportation should immediately follow for illegals.

And the death penalty for gang-bangers that commit cold-blooded murder like this should be quick, painful, and PUBLIC. Slice the bastard's head off and put it on a pike. Problem solved.

Sometimes it pays to read popular magazines.

A popular magazine on women had an article on Ms. Harris recently.

She is an Obama supporter.

She also was praised by AHNULD’s Chief of Staff, a Ms. KENNEDY and a DEMOCRAT.

The Republican Party will die in November if McCain can’t beat Obama. And if that happens, it NEEDS to go.

Don’t look to the Republicans.

The Republican Party is FINISHED - OVER - DEAD, GONE.

It has lost all purpose for existance. Its totally incapable of providing an effect foil to the communists and socialists in the Democrat Party. On the contrary, it CONSPIRES with them.

Silly FReepers, liberals restrict the death penalty only to unborn babies. Convicted murderers are deemed more worthy and are protected from state-sponsored killing.

“I agree, had that been my family, I would have gone hunting...start at the bottom and work up...never mind the police you furry little bastards...worry about what I will do to you when I get you.”

I doubt the police would look to hard insomuch as Kamala refused to go for the death penalty when one of their own was gunned down by a gangbanger. The police hate her. At least the ones with any spine.
