Personally I think this is the one and only way to deal with gangs, terrorists, drug king pins and their lackies. Add in child abusers, rapists, etc to that as well

I agree somewhat. I just wonder though, how long until gun owners are labeled as " terrorists "

Gang members have to kill before they are let into most gangs so why not pay them back?
There should be no mercy on savages!!!

It isnt a F***ing game of tag, if you're killing people and happen to "surrender" you should still pay the piper.

Bystanders should have got the hell out of dodge.. Seems like all their kids got the message and packed up a while ago.. shame they came here though via dubious politically influenced motives.

That myth isn't even true for the most hardcore sets of Bloods or Crips. If it were, our murder rates would be through the roof. Here is a list of gangs listed for the Portland metro area. Imagine the body count if that myth were true.

I spent a lot of time in bad parts of town in my youth and was basically in (stupidly) self imposed homelessness for a few months while I was 20. Most of the gang members I knew, including some from sets with bad reputations, were all talk. They were generally punks who wanted the cred of the image but had no desire to get their hands bloody.

All of that fear originates with a very low percentage of legitimately dangerous gang members. Thank goodness for that.

As a K-Type I take all threats seriously:

Gotta admit, they have killer free-hand lettering skilz

How convenient.. I'm sure it wasn't financially motivated at all as after all, dead men tell no tales.
Indeed, it was probably just a ruse and they murdered innocents just to make themselves look good.
evil is evil either way

I say "F" em. Kill them all. You want to live by the gun, then you damn better be ready to die by the gun.
The Mexican gang's have a particularly nasty reputation for killing. If the Mexican Army offed 21 of them, Great!!!

There are a few things that we base our legal system/philosophy on; innocence until proven guilty and a trial by a jury of our peers in a court of law.

Moreover, more than one person has been found innocent after being convicted and imprisoned, so we also have courts of appeal, etc.

To that end, our law enforcement officers and not judge/jury/executioners.

I know this happened in Mexico, and I know those executed were gang members probably guilty of violent crime themselves, but I will not applaud their actions just because those they executed may have later been found guilty of those crimes.

OTOH, what did those in Mexico expect?

It could also have been Jihadists purging narcos with the army pulling the trigger. Mexico is a failed state so anything is possible. When the Hidalgo Co, TX Sheriff holds his next press conference we may learn the truth, if he lives that long.

Well reasoned and stated, sir.

Applying the US Constitution, as it existed 20 years ago, to any incident that has occurred since 2007 is, IMHO, like applying speed limits in the Jurassic Period; great idea, now let's see you enforce them.

 

[The Heretic]

The principles behind the Bill of Rights in the US Constitution are inalienable, predate the Constitution itself (which simple elucidates those principles) and will exist after it is forgotten.

Ahhhh, my bad.

I suspect it's still a myth.

 

[Certaindeaf]

It's always best for enforcement agencies to waste a bunch of people, daily, and then stand back, snap their suspenders and say "yep, check it out.. this is fun!".. especially after they've already surrendered. lol. buncha dogs

 

[BoonDocks36]

I for one, am Shocked.

Shocked I say, where was Al Sharpton to bring social justice to these innocent children, I suspect that most of them were ~only~ days away from entering a United States University, choose the State of your choice...

 

[BoonDocks36]
