Youngstown man shot to death while at Ohio State, killer sentenced.

The style of gun fires the same size bullets used in an AK-47 rifle.

See what they do there? If the writer knows what size bullets were used, you would think he would know the weapon.

Another black on white “random” murder.

Black thug shoots white student.

Ferals gonna feral.

In this case some poor kid got snuffed for no reason...just an honest mistake. Blahblahblah...see that sucka in 32 years.

Cruel and unusual punishment.

In that the family suffers knowing this piece of pi$$-poor protoplasm gets to live on the public dole in jail until such time as a Soros-appointed DA/parole board releases him early back into the general public.

The cruelty being that we, the taxpayers, wage-earners have to pay for the perp’s existence/subsistence - housing, food, shelter, medical care - until such time as he expires or is released upon which time we will have to suffer the likelihood of him victimizing society again.

The death penalty is far kinder.

One trial, one appeal, choice of method - Kevorkian IV, firing squad, nitrogen, fentanyl OD, hanging, old sparky, I don’t care and I’d be happy to start the IV or get on the firing line to service lady justice.

If you ever had to ponder the reason for newsprint journalism's decline and the quality of such journalists' own writing talent, have a look at the original article's title: "Our whole world was shattered': Youngstown honors student's killer sentenced to prison". Grammatically, that means that Youngstown is honoring a killer being sent to prison, as opposed to "Killer of Youngstown honors student sentenced to prison" which would, instead, mean the killer of an "honors student" being sent to prison.

A good practice is not to be out at 3:45 a.m., especially in places where ferals congregate.

[Albion Wilde]

How long does this have to go on before people start recognizing the obvious about the relative state of cultural and moral development and stop making allowances and excuses for wicked crimes?

Bring back the death penalty.
