Instead of postulating totally based on only racial bias how's about actually knowing what was charged and possible verdicts?
Murder was NOT the only possible verdict. Please do try and keep up...
Did not know that if you dropped a weapon and it went off killing some one you could go to prison for murder or homicide.
I understood why he wasn’t found guilty of murder, but in my opinion he could have been charged with manslaughter and gotten convicted. The DA in that case overcharged.
I agree, if there was no option to convict on a lesser charge then the DA messed up badly since from based on the facts there was no intent. Anyone that wants to get upset over this should focus on the DA not the person that was found not guilty of the charges filed.
Sad case, and I hope her family finds a way to heal and move on with their lives, I would venture to guess that is what the young lady would want.
have you ever fired a handgun at 100 feet, well i have many times, and i have seen even police officers during training hit the ground at 75 feet (25 yards), well according to the news she was roughly 100 feet away, so he could have easily been aiming for her and hit the ground instead. Imo he [b]should have been convicted of second degree murder [/b]since he was committing a felony shooting a firearm that he was not allowed to posses.
HE EVEN SAID HE MURDERED HER BY ACCIDENT AND THEY STILL ACQUITTED HIM OF "MANSLAUGHTER", WHICH IS ACCIDENTAL MURDER!!!
THAT JURY NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS !!!
THIS WAS TOTALLY POLITICAL!!! TOTALLY!!
THEY HAD THEIR MINDS MADE UP!!! CALIFORNIA IS A HELL HOLE AND SAN FRANCISCO IS THE CAPITOL!!
What are you proposing to do to the members of the jury? Punishing jury members that don't vote the right way is something that you would see in a third world banana republic run by an authoritarian dictator. Which I guess we should expect now that the US fits that description.
Collateral damage of the gun culture??
The guy was a 5 time illegal alien, the gun was stolen and he certainly did not have a license for it or the bullets. In most states it is illegal to discharge a firearm within so many feet of a dwelling never mind on a crowded pier The question should be is how did this guy get the gun and why did he feel the need to carry it? Was he planning on using it to intimidate his fellow illegals or to "earn money" by committing armed robbery? Where others after him for some reason and he felt he needed a gun to protect himself?
Was he planning to use it on ICE officers when they came to deport him for the 6th time?
There is no question over how he got the gun. The BLM agent left it in an unlocked car and it was stolen and left in a public park.

Trump was right to use this ugly scene to make his political point about how important it is to follow immigration laws and to secure our border. This guy was scum, he was not the best and brightest, he was not a future valedictorian and he was not here to do the jobs that Americans refuse to do. He was here because our elected failed us all and a woman lost her life because of it.
And yet no mention of securing the gun that was stolen in the first place.
Given how many people are killed every day by unsecured guns, wouldn't that have been a more relevant point for him to have made?
If that is true, then the State will do very well on appeal. But it isn't, apparently.
There is NO appeal. He can't be tried for this again due to double jeopardy.
About the best we can hope for is a good prison guard might "accidentally" let him out into the yard during Aryan Nation recess.
