Sanctuary policies failed my daughter — and my state

My youngest daughter, Katie, who was only 20 years old, was killed on Jan. 19. Her only “crime” was being a passenger in a car in Urbana, Illinois. The man who took her life, Julio Cucul-Bol, was an illegal immigrant who was driving drunk when he slammed into the Honda Civic she was riding in at nearly 80 miles an hour. He fled immediately and was then aided by associates in Urbana and Chicago as he tried to escape justice.

After Katie’s death, Trump and his administration reached out with compassion and acknowledged our loss. Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL) has not acknowledged her death at all. No phone call. No letter. No condolences. Nothing — from him or any statewide official who championed the policies that helped enable this tragedy.

Pritzker is the equivalent of a squid turd at the bottom of the ocean

He might be more accurately characterized as whale droppings

It would not further their political agenda? You have break a few eggs to make a Communist Omlette.

My cousin had a similar fate. The driver fled to Mexico before he could be arrested

Meanwhile, Illinois taxpayers, including our family, are now paying more than $60,000 a year to house him in Stateville, not including medical treatment.

If his disease is communicable, give him medical treatment. Say, a dose of potassium chloride.

We live in a post-modern and marxist society.

government elites hate the average people, are there to be social-engineered, and are only a means to power

Illinois is a terrorist state.

I think a big dose of leadicillin would be more appropriate…

[Mouton]

I’ve heard the best dosage is one to the chest and two to the forehead, repeat if disease is not eradicated immediately with just one dose.

re: fat man waddling, Pritzker...

Who's that gut lord marching?
You should cut down on your porklife mate

This stops when those supporting this are prosecuted and jailed

To the Pritzker Illinois gov’t, the illegal alien criminal is the victim.

Lower than whale poop, is Governor Creosote.

I’ve heard the best dosage is one to the chest and two to the forehead...

I prefer the old Triple-B cure...Baseball Bat, Boxcutter and Blowtorch.

“...was then aided by associates in Urbana and Chicago as he tried to escape justice.”

I’m a firm believer that any person illegally in the country and the people who assist them should be automatically put in prison for at least 10 years for trying to escape. And if a death is involved, life for the assisters and the chamber for the perpetrator, no parole, no deportation, and no pardon available.

I’m so sorry, AppyPappy.

[Mouton]

I’d like to add one to your three, pliers.

We call him, “Prickster” for a reason.
