Someone could write a country & western song about this, or could be hip-hop.

Standing in front of a group of potential donors in a well-appointed home, Chesa Boudin began a stump speech that would perhaps only fly in what was once the epicenter of the counterculture.
“I was in diapers when my parents left me with the babysitter to participate in an armored car robbery,” he said. “They never came home.”
Mr. Boudin, 38, is campaigning for an unlikely role for someone whose parents, operatives in the 1960s radical left-wing group the Weather Underground, went to prison for their roles as getaway drivers in a botched stickup that left three men — including two police officers — dead.
He wants to be the district attorney.
Mr. Boudin now works as a public defender, representing poor clients in criminal cases. His platform includes reducing mass incarceration, diverting mentally ill and drug addicted offenders away from prison, being tougher on police misconduct and closing jails.
*** It is not as though the city has been a bastion of tough-on-crime policies. The current top prosecutor, George Gascón, has taken steps to divert young adults from prison, and San Francisco was the first city to clear old marijuana convictions. ***
In a measure of the city’s liberal politics, all of the four candidates in the district attorney race are, in one way or another, arguing for reducing incarceration even more.
Ms. Loftus, a former prosecutor and the former president of the Police Commission, an oversight board, is also running on a platform of overhauling the justice system.
Rhetorically, there is little daylight between Mr. Boudin and Ms. Loftus. But the city’s establishment has lined up behind Ms. Loftus, including Gov. Gavin Newsom, Mayor London Breed, Senator Dianne Feinstein and Senator Kamala Harris ***

scum begets scum
Many years after I graduated from a conservative private school, I learned that one of the mother of one my girl classmates had been the mama-san of a whorehouse.
What did mom want her daughter to be?
A lawyer.
She became a District Attorney.
...Mr. Boudin, on the other hand, is racking up endorsements from grass-roots liberal groups in the city, and has emerged as a darling among national activists, who see h
He has attracted support from prominent criminal justice system critics like Shaun King, who founded the influential Real Justice PAC and has over a million followers on Twitter, and Larry Krasner, the lawyer who made a career with civil rights suits against the police and then became the top prosecutor in Philadelphia.
...Mr. Boudin was just 14 months old when his parents committed the robbery in New York that sent them to prison. He was raised in Chicago by Bill Ayers, the founder of the Weather Underground, and his wife, Bernardine Dohrn, a lawyer, who was also an operative in the group.
...Growing up in that household, he was immersed in the world of leftist politics and groomed to be an overachiever: Yale. Rhodes Scholar. Yale Law School. “I lived in parallel worlds,” he once wrote. “My family taught me radical politics from the beginning, but I also learned to prove myself in elite institutions.”
....He has disavowed, but sought to understand, his parents’ embrace of violence in pursuit of social change. “There was a tremendous amount of political energy and activity during that time,” he said, “and they were caught up in it. And I think they were led astray and they ended up participating in some things which I know they regret.”
Some people did some things.

Mama’s in the graveyard; Papa’s in the pen!
Papa Loved Mama lyrics - Garth Brooks
Papa drove a truck nearly all his life
You know it drove mama crazy being a trucker’s wife
The part she couldn’t handle was the being alone
I guess she needed more to hold than just a telephone
Papa called Mama each and every night
Just to ask her how she was and if us kids were alright
Mama would wait for that call to come in
When Daddy’d hang up she was gone again
Mama was a looker; Lord, how she shined
Papa was a good’n; But the jealous kind
Papa loved Mama; Mama loved men
Mama’s in the graveyard; Papa’s in the pen
Well it was bound to happen and one night it did
Papa came home and it was just us kids
He had a dozen roses and a bottle of wine
If he was lookin’ to surprise us he was doin’ fine
I heard him cry for Mama up and own the hall
Then I heard a bottle break against the bedroom wall
That old diesel engine made an eerie sound
When Papa fired it up and headed into town
Well the picture in the paper showed the scene real well
Papa’s rig was buried in the local motel
The desk clerk said he saw it all real clear
He never hit the brakes and he was shifting gears
Mama was a looker
Lord, how she shined
Papa was a good’n
But the jealous kind
Papa loved Mama
Mama loved men
Mama’s in the graveyard
Papa’s in the pen
Dorm is suspected in a Bay Area police station bombing long ago I believe. How is it these fro are still breathing?
[ncluding Gov. Gavin Newsom, Mayor London Breed, Senator Dianne Feinstein and Senator Kamala Harris]
Oh well, that makes me feel better already......
Rich Leftists never get true Justice. Not in this world.
Patience my FRiend, as we know... Satan is waiting.
Isn’t there a country & western song along those lines? :)

Look her up or get the FR genealogy expert on this.
I believe that Dorn had a name change from her original Russian Communist roots very early in the game. Very odd people, indeed.
And didn’t she and Bill adopt- Chessa Boudin- of the Weather Underground terrorists? I thought his dad blew him self up by accident and his mommy was convicted and sent to the pen?
But who knows.
Yes, a very good one, indeed.

Momma’s in the Graveyard; Papa’s in the Pen.
Reverse this because I believe Boudin’s Terrorist Dad is in the Graveyard and Terrorist Mom was convicted to the Pen.
Was she the one that was recently pardoned out by Newsome?
Thanks.
Too funny! Yer good.

Bill Ayers and wife Bernadine Dorn raised this guy since his folks went to prison....Ayers and Dorn are no better, having done the same bs but never indicted. Obama’s mentors, ya know.

Daily News from New York, New York
Saturday, October 24, 1981
Kathy Boudin refused to identify the father of her 18-month-old son on the child’s birth certificate. The Daily News learned yesterday that Boudin’s son, Chesa, was born on Aug. 21, 1980 at Sloan Hospital for Women at the Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center. An obstetrician named Susan Williamson delivered the child. The birth certificate identifies the child as C. Jackson Adams and the mother as Lydia Adams, the name Boudin used to apply for public assistance from the city. Consistent with the welfare application, Lydia Adams gave her age as 34 and her date of birth as April 28. 1946. Boudin, in reality, is 38. In addition, “Adams” said her place of birth was Colorado and that she was then living at 50 Morningside Drive. The spaces for the father’s name, age and place of birth were left blank.

I don’t think he looks at all like Gilbert. He’s the spitting image of Ayers, and look at how he cocks his head to the side in the same way.

In February of 1970, his parents bombed the Berkeley Police Department and Golden Gate Branch of the San Francisco Police Department. In July of that same year, his parents bombed the Presidio Army Base in San Francisco and later in October, there was the bombing of the Marin County Courthouse.
In 1971, it was the bombing of the Office of California Prisons and three years later on May 31, 1974 they bombed the Office of the California Attorney General!
Chesa Boudin wrote to his father, who is serving a sentence of 75 years to life: “I’m proud of you for standing up for your anti-imperialist and anti-racist politics.”
