Hopefully crime is less now, Orlando is a beautiful area to live if you can take the heat.

The media loves it when an offender is white and often tries to turn it into a racial white supremacy attack. Happened again during a recent white on white attack.

Platforms do not allow for that, at least not the ones I have on my forums.

However, I do not understand why someone even needs an ignore list. If you do not value what they say, just ignore it after you see the forum ID name.

84 murders of which the majority were a terrorist attack is a far cry from the 600 you claimed.

No one will really know but we can make educated guesses base on demographics and their voting patterns.

He literally asked for the death penalty, saying that if he got life, he would kill someone else. That guy had alot of anger and literally just gave up on life. He didn't value life at all, and didn't care if he lived or died.

He likely does not believe in God, so if someone no longer wants to live, why not off himself. Thereby ending his miserable life, and insuring he will not be taking another.

I don't think the poster you responded to was fearful of escape, rather cost. Since we offshore manufactured goods at pennies on the dollar, they were likely thinking a 3rd world country could keep them locked up at a much lower cost per inmate.

I suspect the fear would be the potentially inhumane way some countries might treat them (i.e. China). However for the worst of the worst, like the scumbag you linked, they probably should.
I just wish we would send all the illegal alien criminals in our prisons, back to their home countries to serve out their sentences.
There is no logical reason to keep them here.

The reports just said 'southwest Yonkers'. That takes in a lot of area. There are scattered bad sections of Yonkers where I would be careful.

I already knew the racial background of the suspect before even clicking on the news video.
Diversity is not always a strength.

I welcome Asian people to America, but Africans (blacks) need to stay in Africa, they're just way too violent. Their high rates of violence clearly show that there is a genetic component to their violence, it's not just because of "circumstances" or whatever excuses liberals make up to explain away their violent behavior.

Some may say my comment is racist, but I don't care. I value peace and safety over tolerating the high levels of violence of a particular racial group.
