Huckabee, Justice system, and Tiger are wrong
Seattle police shooting update: The man who ambushed four police officers in Seattle over the Thanksgiving weekend has been shot and killed by a police officer. That’s good, but now there’s even more evidence that he never should’ve been on the street in the first place. Not only did former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee second-guess the Arkansas court that sentenced this guy to 108 years (a court that actually had an opportunity to see the guy and gauge his level of dangerousness) by commuting the sentence and allowing him to be paroled, but then a judge in Washington granted the guy bail just days before this weekend’s deadly ambush, even though he was a convicted felon with a violent history and had been rearrested for rape.
Does Everyone Deserve a Second Chance?
I feel for the cops who’ve got to be frustrated with the lenient, “everybody deserves another chance” mentality among many judges and lawmakers that forces them to keep risking their lives to catch the same people over and over and over. When I’m in charge, it’ll be once, and the cops won’t have to worry about seeing the same individual on the streets again for a long, long time, if ever!
Tiger Woods Update
Sounds like Tiger Wood’s wife may have had a reason (perhaps even a pretty good one!) for smashing into his car with a golf club other than the stated reason (that she was trying to help extricate an already-injured Woods from the car after he had crashed it). Not that I’m necessarily feeling sorry for Woods or wanting the wife to face any consequences, but is anyone else wondering now when and why the window smashing actually occurred?
Finally tonight, study this: A new study says that loneliness is catching. Hmmm. Anyone else puzzled trying to figure out how that would work exactly?
