"So how are black criminals more of an issue than others, and what do you expect the Republicans to do with those black people?"

He is making an accurate point. Although in this case, guessing by the names, the perpetrators may not be Black, overall Blacks in fact are responsible for over 50% of all violent crime.

Every person should be treated as an individual tho, no matter what group for which they have no control over, they belong to.

What Republicans can do about it is make sure the guilty are punished and the innocent are not.

No I don't mean attention from the law, I mean attention from the media and so on. The lawmen have my utmost respect for what they have to deal with. I remember years ago when I was high school the folks on tv talking about 'ice' and how 'ice' would make 'crack' look like a fad in the long run. I think there will be the same mandatory minimums for meth pretty soon that existed for crack.

I'm getting really tired of hearing about this person, and hearing comments from her mother and black-eyed Kato Kaelin-esque boyfriend.

The only thing that seperates this late female from any other victim of violent crime in NYC is that she was one of the rising glittery people of stage and screen: An upcoming *star*!

... Namely, just the kind of people we can't stand around here.

Let's all work together to bury this story.

As I said to someone else before, Do you not punish your kids when they do something wrong because they are going to do bad things anyway?

Stronger consequences DETER bad behavior just as they deter crime. Make an example of someone and everyone knows the rules.

Nope it was San Diego for quite a number of years.
It was a crown the mayor and Chamber of Commerce absolutely hated.

Yes, but who is responsible for almost 100% of violent crimes? Poor people. The chances of Oprah mugging me are close to zero.

...why is Switzerland so safe? Because everyone in Switzerland knows how to shoot a gun.

I doubt that's the reason.

I think it should be classified as a "hate" crime. Put the libs up against their own sick logic.

Dying on your knees if no way to live.

So you die and I'll live. No problem. She didn't have a gun. You can be big tough person all you want. I will defend myself too but sometimes you need to keep your mouth shut when the other party has a gun and you don't.

True. They gunned down a security guard going home from work and they've yet to catch his shooter. Sometimes you have to tolerate it because it brings attention to a larger issue. Just like Scott Peterson... sick of that case but I really do believe the story helped get George Bush elected.

Why San Diego? Proximity to I-5? Is it coming across the border? What's going on?

btw how is the Del doing? One of my favorite hotels.

"Ice" is a pure form of meth.
It's clear.

How did a manure salesman killing his wife and unborn child impact the election?

Then what is the REASON?


The harsher the penalty the less people are likely to commit crimes. It has been proven TIME and AGAIN

DETERENT, CONSEQUENCES DETER

Look at abortion, - When we legalized abortion, more women went out to get an abortion.

You can't reason that they would have "gotten the abortion anyway" when it was Illegal.

It's a liberal Argument you're making.

I had a very keen intereste in it but the media loves overkill. One can't deny that baby Connor did more for the pro-life movement than some the bloviating and yelling that goes on.

Why was San Diego the meth capital?
Easy to make, big county, lots of
rural areas not patrolled by law enforcement,
proximity to Mexico, and a HUGE clientel.

The Del is good.
I live in Mississippi now.
