The two men, Sgt. Stacey C. Koon and Officer Laurence M. Powell, who had faced up to 10 years in prison for violating the civil rights of Mr. King, were ordered to begin serving their sentences on Sept. 27. Fines were waived.

This after the state court found them not guilty. They ended uyp being sentenced to two and a half years.

I imagine that there would be more than ten years for violating Miss Steinle's right to life as guaranteed in the constitution.

“Well, there are more FReepers helping to finance FR from California than any other state and we’re as offended about this verdict as the rest of the country. BTW, the Steinle’s don’t live in San Francisco, they live about ten minutes down the road from us in Pleasanton, a place that’s not anything like San Francisco.”

Rule of thumb for thinking Americans...stay the F out of these wretched big city democrat run shitholes. Bad stuff happens there.

>>Sadly, it is not the only third world state.

A lot of our states have the bad economy and/or the demographics to be a Third World State. Some states have the government to be considered Third World. Only CA has all three and has the Third World fatalism that makes them think that more of the same is the answer.

Jurors chose to send a message to Trump
rather than render justice.

This is my message to that jury:

I feel for you. I used to live in NY. But, you guys really ought to get out of there - CA is never going to be rehabilitated. Your country could use your votes in more important states.

“I read that DOJ is considering prosecuting this murderous wetback federally for civil rights violations, a la Rodney King.
Letting him go back to Mexico is a travesty.”

With another San Francisco jury? Yeah that sounds like another recipe for failure.

So when does the rioting and looting begin?

Have we seen any comments from the jury? I’d be interested to know what they were thinking. Perhaps they were seriously misled by the prosecution and/or court.

“I feel for you. I used to live in NY.”

I feel for you for having ever lived in NY. At 77 I have no desire to leave CA because with all of it’s faults, it’s still the best place on the planet to live. Why don’t you send the Robinsons a post in Fresno and tell them just how sorry you feel for them too. I am sure that will do a lot to improve the way they regard you. Some people fold and let their places go to $hit without firing a shot, others stand and fight. CA is worth fighting for, I guess NY wasn’t.

“I have no desire to leave CA because with all of it’s faults, it’s still the best place on the planet to live.”

Yeah, I mean once you get past the iron-fisted, one-party Marxist rule that’s so entrenched that it’s trying to form its own communist state...it’s really not a bad place to live!

Maybe at 77 you can’t do much in the way of math anymore, but maybe you should try to look at the numbers: CA is now a minority-majority state and the trend lines...well they don’t look so good either. What’s your plan - hang on to watch more Mexican aliens cranking out anchor baby citizens in hopes they’ll suddenly become Burkean conservatives? LOL

When you’re fighting a war - and that is what this is, you don’t get your forces wiped out defending strategically stupid territory. That’s why most of the good people with a clue have already left or are in the process of leaving.
