Funny how that story is from a british paper. The american media is a joke. Cnn will have the latest completely humorless anti trump SNL sketch on the front page but no mention of something like this
Guy sounds like a real sweetheart. 4 prior felony convictions and now charged with 3 separate robberies in the area as well as car theft. He, like most serial robbers, preys on the vulnerable. Judge denied bail.
Should Fox, CNN and MSNBC report on the THOUSANDS of violent crimes that occur in all over the US, every day?
The victim escorted sailors to/ from deployment ships in NYC, during WW2. Media of all colors never fails to mention that a victim of crime was a veteran because it is more likely to get more attention/ clicks.
Public executions wouldn't have scared him. When you expect to die an early death, you don't value life and don't care about anyone else. Live and die by the sword. Young, angry, and lacking any care for anyone, not even one's self.

Yep
Why their stupid gun laws are going the wrong direction.
This guy will be out on bond by Christmas after his appeal.. I tell you though... Cook County Jail is no place anyone wants to be
He's been denied bail.
Given his prior convictions and that he has been charged with 4 separate instances of felony crimes, it's unlikely he is going to get bail or be able to make bail if some judge reconsiders.

Baltimore would be a much better example of this. Baltimore has the 2nd highest murder rate for a major city. It has gun laws stricter than that of Chicago. It is in a state with gun laws stricter than Illinois. Maryland borders Pennsylvania, which also has some strict gun laws. Doesn't stop Maryland as a state from being more murderous than Illinois. Those who don't value life do not care. Most murders are committed by those who are young, angry, and see nothing to lose for themselves, many were often abused as children.

If he's been in and out of prison much of his adult life, something tells me this prison stint won't do anything.
Public hangings or be-headings would fix all of this thuggery.
I disagree. Many people who rob and hurt other people themselves often meet an early death. When your philosophy is "life fast and die young", age 30 is considered old. When you don't expect to live long, a public hanging won't work. When there is no fear or shame, it won't work.
The elderly are more vulnerable and frequently targeted by thugs.
