Spineless bug people. This is why we’re losing.
Glad to see 19 years in prison, though!
Unfortunately, he’ll come out a more vicious thug, and most likely a more virulent form of terrorist.
Hopefully Fate will intervene in the meantime...
Tosed from a 6-10 story building would have been better.
NEVER, NEVER FORGIVE a jihadi.....NEVER!
Never understood forgiveness, especially from people who have not acknowledged being wrong.
But I guess if you live in Minneapolis you need to drink the kool-aid, and if they kill your children, you don’t want to be viewed as being not-PC.
Sounds like dad wears a pussy hat.
What does "to forgive" mean? I'm not sure I know exactly.
I would never forgive him, and if I would still be alive, I would be waiting for him when he got released.
When the Somali Muslim threw the small white boy off the 3rd floor balcony : did he yell Allah Akbar?..
Aranda’s real name is Abdisaid Mohammed
To the parents: your forgiveness does not mean the person is NOT to be punished. For the safety and security of everyone else, the attacker must be jailed and punished to minimize future incidents.
Predators on society should be executed to prevent further damage.
Imo the parents are neither spineless nor weak!
They refuse to become this vicious animals victims as well......carrying around bitterness which eats away at your soul
They acknowledged the guys evil selfishness and agree to his incarceration...
You have no idea what these parents have faced....are facing!!! throughout this ordeal with their little boy
The pain they are going through!
How can you possibly heap scorn on them ........they truly are trying to live a Christian walk.
Dear folks, I know you mean well and want to see revenge enacted.......but God knows and He truly avenges in His own time.
His gofundme went to a million bucks last time I looked. Mall should be on the hook under premises liability.
The whole thing makes me sick. His life ruined because of a nut job
“Both parents, whose statements were full of references to their Christian faith, said they forgave Aranda because they believe God expects them to.”
Wow. Christians practicing Christianity. Hats off to them. It must be tough to walk the walk when your child has been thrown off a balcony.
You should only forgive someone if he sincerely repents and asks for forgiveness. To do otherwise is to abet further evildoing.
These are Minnesotans, who STATEWIDE, inflict evil on themselves with pathetic or outright evil politicians. Give Minnesota to Canuckistan.
Why only 19 years? There is no way this evil thug should ever walk free again.
To “forgive” these subhuman scum is to submit to their ways. They see this as weakness, it does not move their black hearts. They do not repent they push harder.
Kill them all let God sort them out.
Only truly sick parents would forgive such a horrible act.
Oh, that is right. The little boy was white and the attempted murderer was black.
