Here’s hoping Big Bubba doesn’t want a man as his cellmate and fixes the problem.

What the hell does "culture" have to do with this?

Because in several cultures, men want only boys as offspring. In China they have drowned baby girls for centuries. In Latin America girls often suffer similar fates, sold into sex slavery or prostitution.

Why she didn't call the police right then and report him is anybodys guess.

That wouldn't have done a thing - they would have told her to file a report and to call when he actually did something.

Because in several cultures, men want only boys as offspring.

And, in just about all cultures, women want to marry men with money.

.... her alleged motive for the deaths — to dispose of her children so that she might have a relationship with a wealthy local man who had no interest in a "ready-made" family — was met with widely held contempt and revulsion. There has been no answer from Susan Smith regarding her choice not to give her husband custody of the children, instead of killing them.

Even in American culture, given the choice for an only child, fathers will prefer a son even if they won't publicly admit it.

That does not mean that the knocking off your kids is an accepted part of the "culture" unless you are referring to the "culture of sickos" which this man, Susan Smith and Andrea Yates all belonged to.

“How awful of you...! Shame , shame, shame.

I could do it very slowly, and make ‘lotsa money’ by making it a Pay per View event.”

As much as I dislike China’s policy of organ harvesting. This is a case for it. Get some use out this POS. Type and cross match him for being an organ donor and if he is disease free he goes to the head of line. The donor line not the recpipient line. Next time some needs a kidney or corneas its “Oh Marcos the doctor called and he wants to see you”

This bonafide creep needs to share a cell on death row with the other creep who threw his 4 children from a bridge to drown them earlier this week.

I agree, I’m a mother, and I love all my children equally, but my husband and I just discussed it, and I’d rather have a girl (limited to one child of course) and he’d prefer a boy. Of course he likes to spend more time with our middle child, who happens to be a girl, so I find that more of a intellectual process decision than what he’d really want. But I think males want another male and females probably want another female. I don’t think it’s a cultural thing so much as a genetic thing? But I have to say that our best friends/neighbors are a doctor and his wife who are from Caracas, and he loves his daughters very much and I can’t say he’s ever thought about sending his daughter into prostitution so maybe the “Latin American” remark in this thread is a little far reaching, seeing that he is from South America.

As a Christian, we are supposed to pray for the salvation of all humanity, but I find myself hoping that Marcos Gomez-Romero is too evil or too stupid to avail himself of God’s greatest Gift to us all.

God forgive me.

He sure must have been one hell of a good lay & provider, if Mommy was so frightened that he would leave if she reported the abuse.

And he already has a son, so it isn't like this was his first, and right after getting ehr pregnant, he was accidentally neutered by his fellow gan-bangers.

Only drugs & alcohol can make a 28 YO so damned mean & look that old & used up.

Geez, and all kings used to do was behead the mother (or perhaps just divorce her) when she failed to produce a boy.

Where *was* the mother all this time?
