i remember seeing this every single night on the news... day 1 of Chowchilla School Bus Kidnapping... and on and on... i was in grade school...
The idea that a man who is capable of such a monstrous act can stop being such a person is really really stupid.
On his own, he cannot, and you are quite right. But all of us are desperately wicked inside and capable of such acts, and Jesus and the Holy Spirit can indeed bring about true repentance and restoration. Examples are legion, and Heaven will contain none but those who have so repented and believed and received. "Amazing Grace...that saved a wretch like me."
Can we buried him in a school bus? And forget where he was buried.
I was just a youngster when my parents were talking about this strange news that was on the tv news. Something about a bus with kidnapped children. It never made sense, since “burying a bus” is confusing.
I also remember Channel 7 news talking about “busses” and “desegregation” in the schools. Big, lame mistake to send black kids from Long Beach to white schools in Northridge and white teachers from Northridge to black schools in Long Beach.
Jerry Brown is far worse then these criminals. He has been trying to release 40,000 criminals. Most are still locked up as they get shunted to city and county jails.
He’s going to find that school buses are a lot different today.
I was 19 yo and in the USN at the time.
You’re right. I looked it up. I didn’t remember the details but do remember it was a crazy story.
I am reminded of golfer Lee Trevino's well-known maxim, generated by his disgust with others' slow play: "Miss 'em quick."
