The Dad Fisherman hits it on the head.
I read about that story this morning and you look at the history of this career criminal and can't help but wonder why he's out there.
When someone chooses to live their life in that way, what is the point? When is enough enough. Drugs, weapons, assault, kidnapping... now murder.
Who would have guessed that the scumbag was capable?
As a father of 3, I couldn't help but put myself in that position and then asking why this guy was walking the streets.
Its kinda like the DUI thing... laws are stricter now, but there are people out there with 4 or 5 DUI's... don't we get the picture.
So when someone is arrested over and over, don't we get the picture.
And beyond the political system and how to change it... we need to change something. We all know these people. People in and out of trouble all the time. Ya know, don't be a freakin' enabler.
What do I mean? Don't treat them nice. Don't laugh about it? When you know someone that chooses that lifestyle, choose not to be associated with it. You think its only drugs, or they only steal, or whatever. BS, it doesn't stop, it usually escalates.
