Obama Writes Personal Letters to 46 Felons; No Contact with Kathryn Steinle’s Family
Breitbart ^ | 07/13/15 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 07/15/2015 6:56:39 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Nearly two weeks after 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle was murdered on San Francisco’s Pier 14 by an illegal alien and convicted felon who was released from prison earlier this year, President Barack Obama has failed to contact the victim’s family or mention her in public. Yet Obama took the time to write (and release) 46 personal letters this month to felons imprisoned for non-violent drug offenses whose sentences he has commuted.

Like the 46 felons to whom Obama wrote, Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez had served time for non-violent offenses, some of them drug-related. After his arrest, Lopez-Sanchez, who had been deported five times to Mexico, confessed to shooting Steinle as she walked with her family at the popular tourist spot.

Steinle’s murder quickly became an iconic example of violent crime by illegal aliens released from custody under the “sanctuary city” policies embraced by San Francisco and other liberal cities that decline to work with federal immigration officials.

Critics have noted that Obama was quick to reach out to the family of Michael Brown, who was killed while charging a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri last year, enhancing Brown’s heroic status to drive a political narrative. He has done the same in other, similar cases.

Problem with that wish, DJ, is that we won’t see those faces - we’ll all be either in the camps, or dead.

I recommend that you reconsider the use of that graphic.

We've been told that the term "Tea Bagger" refers to some sort of perverse act. (You can look it up but I think you might get TMI.)

Isn’t it telling that the vast majority of us aren’t the least bit surprised by this story...?

Many so called “non-violent” drug dealers were simply convicted of possession or dealing because that was easier than convicting them of violent crimes they committed. I would never consider someone in the drug trade as non-violent, because violence is an internal part of the business model.

I wonder what the racial breakdown of the pardon group was (of course I have my suspicions).

Since every area of life in the USSA is increasingly invaded by accusations of “disparate impact,” I think it legitimate to ask about that here. Our Prez is a traitor, but he’s also a racist. He makes it increasingly clear who he favors day by day.

I think this bunch literally goes out of its way to insult the majority of Americans every single day. Like “Jeh” (whatever that is) Johnson’s response when asked about Kathryn Steinle’s death.

I didn’t make it. I found it online and I believe it to be appropriate because progressives DID use a derogatory sexual term and for all their bravado and contempt, we will be proven right.

...but as to the family if they are registered Democrats/Obozo worshippers then I do not care about their sorry!

It would be extremely cruel to repeatedly remind them of their own contribution to their beloved daughter's death if that is the case. I don't have enough of a mean streak to do it.

But let's find out for sure before issuing any such reminders.
