Kathryn Steinle's family calls for harsher punishment for illegal immigrants who re-enter America
San Jose Mercury News ^ | 07/14/2015 | Tracey Kaplan

The national uproar over immigration policy continued Monday, as Kathryn Steinle's parents said federal and local authorities "let us down" by allowing a repeatedly deported felon back on the streets before he allegedly killed their daughter as she was strolling on a pier in San Francisco.

The interview with Fox News' Bill O'Reilly came as a new government report was released Monday showing that more than 1,800 immigrants whom the federal government wanted to deport last year were nevertheless released from local jails and later rearrested for various crimes.

"It's easy to get hysterical when something bad happens," Santa Clara County Public Defender Molly O'Neal said.

This is why we have folks like a certain Mr. Trump calling out the politicos big time.

God forbid that Molly should lose a family member to one of these animals.

the call for punishment should be for harsh punishment of the San Francisco political establishment.

until they are gone, there can be no end to the criminal domination of the city

I watched the interview with a lump in my throat. I thought the Steinles, although calm and composed, were heartbreaking. Prayers for their peace. BOR actually compared them to the Bidens, who have lost a son recently. I wanted to scream at the TV, ‘ Beau Biden had brain cancer and they were prepared for his death. Kate Steinle was murdered......a totally unnecessary loss of a child, due to Liberal flaunting of our LAWS’. The two deaths are IN NO WAY COMPARABLE. I hope Kate's Law makes it's way into our cities. But, until this Admin is history, no laws will be observed anyway.......unless a baker refuses to make a cake for a same-sex couple. Sickening.

Cali lib/zits agree.....but do not ever want to be "mean" to an illegal felon.

The lib/zit solution? They are putting 2 points on drug lord El Chapo's Cali driver's license....but they still feel good' about themselves.

=============================================

REFERENCE El Chapo was given a California driver’s license in 1988, according to the DEA.... under the name of “Max Aragon”. El Chapo was wanted in the United States at the time “Max Aragon” got the Cali driver’s license.

Fortunately for El Chapo, illegal immigrants can now get driver’s licenses legally in the state of California under a new law that went into effect in January under Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown. In the first three days of Democrat Brown's new law, more than 46,000 illegals applied, prompting “Black Friday”-type lines and wait times outside DMV offices.

Why not make it a felony to enter this great Nation illegally in the first place and allow Americans to file civil action in federal court against the host country that allows them to cross into the United States of America illegally, costing all Americans their hard earned tax dollars and injuries!

Harsher punishment?
How about any punishment at all?

I'd suggest the U.S. institute a "2 strikes & you're out (permanently)" policy for illegals.

First time caught, they get deported. If any illegal (who had previously committed a violent crime in the U.S.) returns and gets caught a 2nd time, they get a bullet in the head, with the execution broadcast over the airwaves to any & every hell-hole from Mexico on southward. Wouldn't take more than a half dozen executions before word got around and these vermin* would self-deport.

*vermin meaning those illegals committing violent crimes. As for the other non-violent illegals who are here for the benefits, cut those freebies out and many of them will stop coming &/or self-deport, too.

Then we can start a discussion on a workable solution for those illegals who are here to work hard, support our economy, and assimilate into our culture.

I know, I know ... but one can dream, can't he?!

O’Reilly did a good job in providing the parents a platform, and will be flying them to DC to promote Kate’s Law.

Personally, I think they should be told the first time they are caught, “If you get caught a second time in this country, you’ll get two rounds to the head.”

Might help with recidivism.
