Wow. A true hero ignored because he is a Republican.

Every time you think leftists can't go lower, they sink deeper into the muck.

This whole episode is as disgusting as almost anything they've done. What could be next? How much more perverse can they get?

Thank you for post #4, and thanks Kaslin for posting this article.

Roll’s death was consistent with the way he lived. We should celebrate such men. We should be grateful for the lives they lead and to the God who gave them life.

Remind your favorite talk show host;
To review The Wellstone II exhortations by Mr 0 when referencing the judge and Sheriff Dufus.

Obama supported the claim Dufus made that “the judge stopped by after mass to pay a vist”....

Instead of being, as earlier reported by FOX, on a panel complaining about the court case deportations overload caused by illegals....When Obama did this he usurped the Federal case of murder of a federal official... Clever eh ?

I wouldn’t quibble over this. It matters to God and that is all that matters.

Could it be because Judge Roll was a 4th Degree Knight of Columbus who attended daily Mass?

Oh -- one of them. No, no lauds for Judge Roll.

Why Didn't We Know This?

Because he was a Republican judge.
Hope this helps!

Dittos, I'll go one step farther though. He was WHITE, and Republican. The LSM always goes overboard in trying to find new heroes. If there name or skin color is not caucasion then they are the heroes.

I heard very little about Judge Roll and slightly more about the nine year old girl. I have heard absolutely nothing about any of the other vicitims - whether injured or deceased. Nada, nothing, zip. Are these people all worthless merely because they do not belong to the arrogant political class?

The coverage of this event has made me want to throw up.

May the souls of all those who perished rest in peace, whoever they are...

Thanks guys for giving this man the due respect he and his family deserve by bringing this information forward.

May God keep him close to his side, and provide peace to his wife, his family.

Judge John Roll Was a Hero: Why Didn’t We Know This?

I intend to send a submission to the Carnegie Medal committee on
Monday to suggest Roll (and the other three that subdued the murderer).

I don’t know if Roll (and the other three) meet the criteria for
the Carnegie Medal, but they should at least be put forward for conideration.

(I’m a nobody...I hope someone with real cendentials has put this
concept forward.)

PS: I’m beyond just happy to see the good Congress-Lady sitting up
and showing a smile during transport from AZ to Houston.
Maybe I don’t agree with all her politics but I wish her
G-dSpeed. And a rapid recovery.

Just an interesting side note. Yesterday Glenn Renell of Pearce Arizona, an important artist, delivered this painting to the Thunderbird Foundation as one of his entries for our annual show. In discussing the piece he indicated that he had been acquainted with Judge Roll and that this is a painting of the Roll Ranch.

As we continued our discussion Glenn indicated that he too is a huge fan of Mark Levin. Seems the really great artists are conservatives.

Did no one know about Judge Roll’s actions until this week?

Sometimes we only see what we are looking for.



Stay Alert!

The media were rushing along in herd mentality, doing what their little leftist gods in the Wite Hut basement commanded they reports so this ‘crisis would not be wasted in support of the barry bassturd they all worship.
