That is probably a good policy. It’s just mind boggling how a whole city can be mourning the loss of a bad guy instead of raising hero of the story on their shoulders and giving him the key to the city and whatnot.

The world is turned upside down there, it seems.

Lest we forget, he was an aspiriring rap artist.

And I'm an aspiring billionaire real estate mogul.

How about the outrage over this Boonie trying armed robbery????

To the SF Chronicle and its readers, Boonie was merely practicing "a lifestyle choice".

Piedra, on the other hand, was "a brute with a gun".

The Chronic is sad. One less RAT vote.

[JimRed]

What's a yute?

A youthful offender!

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

So leftists are true to form? No susprise. Leftists WANT the “poor”, “have nots” to rise up and take money from the “rich”, the “haves”.
Also leftists don’t want honest people to have guns.

Liberals don't see evil. All they see are guns. And being selective moral relativists, they won't judge criminals more harshly than their victims. That kind of mindset will get us all killed.

Too bad the store owner didn't ’t mount Boonie’s head on spike outside his shop as a warning. But that would be insensitive.

I have a theory about how to define a liberal. Point 4 is that liberals are always in favor of killing innocent people. If one always keeps that in mind one can always understand why this story and other similar stories are reported as this one is. Liberals love mass killers, and are always opposed to the death penalty, because usually, murderers will kill innocent people again. That also explains why they love communism and abortion. Liberals are always in favor of “gun control,” because that make killing innocent people much more difficult.

As far as truth, I think some liberals know what it is, but they always deny truth. Truth is very much too inconvenient, and leads to too much self-control.

[livius]

Yeah, I wish the latter happened more often...

Normally, they’re so afraid of “the gentleman’s” lawyers that every precaution is taken to save his worthless hide.

“He always had a smile on his face,” said a 22-year-old man who identified himself as a rapper named Little Al. “He was a solid dude, loyal.”

I think you have a good system going. Call it “The Constants of Liberalism.” No matter what the subject if it is liberal in origin those contants will be represented in some way or another. We can take your Point 4 and see it here in gun-control, in abortion, in euthanasia or in the liberal position on the WOT. It fits in welfare, taxation, centralized control and “separation of church and state.” Some dimension of Point 4 can be seen in all of those positions. Even the fear and disdain for the truth is rooted in protecting the personality not life.

[Kozak]

“Holmgren said, “We’re not saying that we want citizens to go out there and arm themselves and take the law into their own hands. We want citizens to be good witnesses, to be good report-takers and to identify suspects.”

They don't want us to be "citizens" at all. Just good peasants.

[MDspinboyredux]

"We want citizens to be good witnesses victims...

Fixed it for ya SFPD!

[GlennD]

The subjects you mention are covered in other points of my definition. I only have 5 points, and I think they cover all liberal/socialist/communist/Democrap positions, though I’ve been tempted to add another point. I just think that once one realizes what they stand for, and define it well, you don't need any further definitions.
Point 4 is the second most important to liberals. They do find other things more important.

[Freedom_Is_Not_Free]

No doubt in my mind. Utopian idealism at its ignorant worst.

[William Tell]

Freedom_Is_Not_Free said: "The vote to ban guns went something like 70% pro ban and 30% against."

I recall 57% for and 43% against.

But that just means that there is an even greater percentage that knows better. I would be happier if 100% of San Franciscans supported the ban. Worthy people should live somewhere else.

[TigersEye]

I figured your other points would round out the picture of liberalism. You ought to put your points up on your profile page. The more ways we, as conservatives, describe the two dimensionality of the left the easier it gets for all of us to cut through their disguises and deflate their false agendas.
