16 year olds who’ve been sentenced to life for crimes other than murder are thrown into a violent despair. That’s what more than likely led to the horrific police killings - and if we want to stop them in the future, we need to look beyond emotion and get to the real problem.

Huckabee’s approach prevented much violent crime and radical Islamic recruitment. Those who criticize him promote more of the same.

Did you even think about this response? This is so intellectually absurd you cannot possible be serious.

16 year olds sentence to LIFE do not get to commit additional crimes because they spend their lives IN PRISON, unless a Governor, like Huckabee, pardons them.

His release of this violent thug did NOTHING but PROMOT violence, it did NOTHING to curb violence.

Actually, what led to the horrific police killings is LIBERALISM. The very same liberalism that lets other convicted felons go free after serving only a minor portion of their legal sentences.

As for your statement: “Huckabee’s approach prevented much violent crime and radical Islamic recruitment. Those who criticize him promote more of the same.”

That is pure OPINION on your part. And an asinine one, at that (which is MY OPINION of your opinion), especially since it can’t be proven. Just more liberal BS from a liberal Huckabee apologist.

So sentencing him, then commuting the sentence, then him getting paroled solves the issue how? If the violent despair is the source of the (later) murder, then how does after-the-fact alleviation solve the problem of needing to avoid the despair in the first place?
