You only deal when you think there is not sufficient evidence for a slam dunk conviction. In my county there would have been no plea deal at all. Maybe in Chicago they could find some white hating racist to hang a jury but even then they should have tried these monsters and put them away for life.

Thanks for that. You would think a journalist would have thought to include that info in this story.

And the time of the occurrence the media and chief of police really tried to downplay the incident.

Animals. Soulless animals good for nothing but jail or The Chair/Needle.

As much as it pains me to say so, when Clinton proclaimed that we were breeding a whole new brand of super predator among our inner city "youths" (substituting "teens" is also acceptable), he was absolutely correct.

Raised by single women who rail about how useless men are, they develop no sympathy, no sense of the dignity, much less the value, of each human life, and become soulless killers by their mid-to-late teens.

All their influences, from rap to movies to Grand Theft Auto, normalize gunplay and mass slaughter. They become so desensitized to these verbal and literal images of killing people that the very idea seems societally glorified. With no father figure to teach them right from wrong, they end up without that piece in their toolbox.

Thank goodness, too... I was beginning to worry that I might not need all this ammo.

Why would they ever need a resume? You actually believe they’ll ever want to work.

I notice two of the person are women.

Abu Ghraib was the Bush-era manufactured liberal outrage. Today it’s separation of families by ICE. People fall for such stupid propaganda campaigns, and our side always accepts them.

Agreed, but my point was that torture convictions don't draw very much prison time in our courts. This guy got eight years, Lynndie England only got three.

I fear we are going to need death squads if the law keeps up this perversion.
