No, but just from short quoted portion in the opening paragraph that appeared under the heading, it seemed to me the Judge was thinking along these lines. Why emphasize “cute Asian girl”, like if the girl was not Asian, or not cute, then none of this every would have happened? I saw the list of his victims, and the rest were not Asian, and about half were teenagers, one girl was only 14.
Considering the number of repeat offenders, if they had been taken care of the first time around, the streets would be a lot safer.
Not only would it prevent them from doing it again, but it would send a message to others thinking of the same thing and might discourage some of them.
She may very well have been trained, but I don’t know of any state that allows a 14 year old to carry a concealed weapon.
All the training in the world isn’t going to help unless the people can actually use it when they need to.
Funny how a hundred years or so ago, when all kids knew how to use a gun by that age, that firearms never posed the danger to society that the gun grabbers warn us will happen if they’re unrestricted.
Idiots......
RE “14 year old girl ...carry”
My bad; misread the article/gir’s age.
The rest of my commentary still stands, though.
Both of my kids shot Expert at young ages.
Both will protect their lives by any means necessary now.
You’re right, of course.
