The Verdict Is In for Kate Steinle's Killer
Kate Steinleās murderer has been declared not guilty. The multiple felon and five time deportee killed the 32 year old woman over two years ago, but her family will never see justice for it.
The California state government has made a complete mockery of the justice system on MULTIPLE levels. Answer me this San Francisco⦠and help me out here because I just canāt wrap my brain around this: How can a man fire a gun into a group of people, kill a woman, then throw the murder weapon into the ocean, get caught fleeing the scene, then get off scot free?
What the hell was the prosecution doing during this case? The killer admitted he fired the gun. The only case the defense had was that this was an accident. The old Comey/Hillary Clinton defense of āno ill intent⦠no harm no foul.ā Iām sorry but thatās not good enough. At the VERY LEAST they could have gotten the killer on involuntary manslaughter. Did the prosecution not care or were they really that incompetent?
If you live in these Sanctuary Cities in California, how can you ever feel safe? Youāre already mostly forbidden from protecting yourself. The gun laws are among the strictest in the country. But not only that, the government of California has now shown that they canāt protect you either. ICE has declared theyāll deport this murderer yet again, but we all know that wonāt actually matter. Heāll come right back, and the state of California not only wonāt do a thing about it but theyāll welcome him with open arms.
The killer didnāt get off completely unscathed. They did actually nail him for something. It wasnāt murder, it wasnāt manslaughter, it wasnāt illegally being in the country. The new crime on his wrap sheet is⦠illegal possession of a firearm. If that doesnāt say it all, I donāt know what does. For the leftists, blaming the criminal always runs second to the gun. The killer is innocent and the gun is guilty.
One final question for the justice system in California. If the shooter would have been a white person and the victim an immigrant⦠legal or illegal. Would you have shown the same mercy?
Trump's Week That Might Have Been
Why wonāt President Trump get out of his own way?
This week there was positive economic news that most past presidents would have shouted from the rooftops. Like the fact that the U.S. economy has exceeded its potential output for the first time in a decade.
The third quarter of 2017 is the strongest in three years. Yesterday, the Dow closed above 24,000 ā an all-time record. And how about this one ā the unemployment rate is the lowest in 17 years.
Those are things that really resonate with people.
The Republican tax reform bill is also inching its way through Congress this week. Itās looking more likely to pass, which would be a much-needed win for the President ā his only significant legislative accomplishment of the year.
This should have been a slower week of positive vibes and fluff pieces on the White House Christmas decorations that were unveiled Monday. Instead, Trump hijacked any good press he might have enjoyed, mainly through Twitter: he said Time magazine called to say he was probably going to be named Man of the Year for the second year in a row (which Time denied); he said we should have a fake news competition for the TV networks with a trophy prize; he shared anti-Muslim videos from a racist British group, infuriating Prime Minister Theresa May; and for good measure, he implied Joe Scarborough should be investigated for murder.
All that drama was on top of his āPocahontasā comment fiasco at an event to honor Navajo World War II veterans.
Trump seems to want positive media coverage about him, yet he feeds the media constant negative fodder with his tweets.
Hereās a strategy the president hasnāt tried ā total Twitter silence, for at least a week, maybe two. If he wouldnāt give the media wacky things to be distracted with, surely theyād be forced to find something else to talk about. In theory. At this point, he has set such a precedent with his tweets that the stories would probably be all about why the president isnāt tweeting.
Michigan AG Vows to Not 'Sexually Harrass Her Staff'
Michigan Attorney General Candidate Dana Nessel wants you to know something.
She does not have a penis.
Dana does have a point. Itās not anatomically possible for her to do a lot of the things the Weinsteinās and Conyers of the world are alleged to have done. Thatās a promise she can absolutely keep to her constituents.
But as we saw with the Presidential election of 2016, running solely on gender doesnāt really work.
Plus, itās unfair and sexist to imply that there is a risk of a potted plant or bathrobe incident if any man holds a position of power simply because he is a man.
All of the allegations about sexual misconduct are throwing a much-needed light on that fact that our societal ideas about manhood have been completely decimated.
We must remember that REAL men donāt do this kind of crap.
They donāt get their confidence or ego from asking women to look at or touch their junk.
Real men elevate their coworkers and acquaintances, regardless of gender, to be their best self.
It might not seem like it right now with two months of nonstop allegations coming out every day, but there are good men out there who donāt keep bags of sex toys at the office. Those men do exist and guess what? They are the majority.
