I spent about half an hour yesterday trying to see if the guy had been arrested or even his name after that beat down for attempted robbery. Turns out he was not arrested for that and not publicly identified. Had he been, or had he been at previously reported crimes, maybe he would have been out doing more robberies. A failure of Californian law enforcement.
The Sikh with the shillelagh should get a medal.
Indeed.
Do not mess with Sikhs. In India, they have long fended off both Hindus and Muslims, both of whom try to mess with them.
They have a strong reputation as being fierce soldiers.
.....I can’t breath.....
que blm and antifa
“He was not arrested that night because the police department said it had not known then about his previous robberies at 7-Eleven.”
Huh?
“The police department said it will forward all of its findings to the San Joaquin County District Attorney’s Office”
Where the case might die.
During military officer education, I read an article on an effort to clean up crime in New York City.
The NYC police departments had a policy of ignoring the “small stuff” and concentrating only on “big” crimes. Also, they were more concerned about police corruption than fighting crime. NYC was becoming progressively more unsafe.
One of the crime-fighting initiatives was to crack down on small crime, such as shoplifting. This had the effect of convincing NYC residents that the police were finally doing something to make neighborhoods safer. In addition, a rather surprising result was that people who were arrested on minor charges often had outstanding warrants for more serious crimes. Thus, the crackdown on minor crime led directly to arrests on more serious charges. And NYC became safer as a result.
I believe this happened under mayor Rudy Guiliani. He appointed a new police chief who oversaw the change of direction for the police departments.
The state of California, of course, is going in exactly the opposite direction. By ignoring small crimes, it is allowing (encouraging) criminals to move up to more serious crimes. Why not? Don’t they get away with it? This is just one more reason I did not return to California after retiring.
We had a lot of Sikh families coming to our gym when I taught swimming. One of the sweetest little students I had was a little Sikh boy. He was TERRIFIED of water, but he knew he had to be a man and learn to swim.
He was a good little student, and man was that little dude brave.
Spot On!
It was reported during WWII that Sikhs were well known to be the fiercest knife fighters in the World. The Japanese were very wary of them.
Somebody done took a magic marker and doodled all over that man’s head!
It’s so unfair!
So you get a freebie? I’m sure they knew all about it. But this created a big public outcry (supporting the Sikhs, of course) and even in CA they had enough sense to do something.
Originally they were talking about charging the Sikhs and now they’re not - so this is doubly good news.
It’s so unfair!

You can hear that entitled criminal saying repeatedly, "There ain't nothing you can do."
Unwarranted confidence there.
