There Ought To Be A Law
Dear Editor,
Well, I read that a teenager has been charged with the murder of the store clerk at Speedway on Battleground Avenue.
Wow, there ought to be a law against a teen having a gun. But, wait, there is a law that a minor, a felon or an incompetent can’t have a gun. Oh, OK, then they need to pass a law that a gun can’t be had by any of them. That way they can charge the gun.
Oh, yeah, they’ve been trying to do that for decades. That makes about as much sense as “catch and release.” Well, they are doing that too. The cops catch them and the liberal judges let them out with a low bail.
If the powers that be would allow the police to enforce the laws already on the books and demand the courts to administer the law as intended, we wouldn’t have the crime rate we have and the crooks wouldn’t be back on the streets trying to shoot the police.
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
Go liberals!

A quick online search shows that in April of 2019, Avion Bell was arrested for a string of armed robberies with bail set at $1 million. Where did the system fail to result in a 72 year old dying at the hands of this sick criminal? It’s a very sad loss to the community and I’d like to know how the kid was released so soon. I have to wonder if he had a father active in his life. Sad for all but heart-breakingly tragic for the one who died.
I agree, Obviously the parents didn’t do their job in raising this kid, as a result of that my friend Pat was brutally murdered by this low life PUNK.
He never should had been let out of Jail, I hope the judge that released him realizes he has the blood of Pat on his hands. I certainly hope he never gets let back out. The death penalty should be carried out immediately and not take 15+ years to execute him.
Parents? More likely the term is “parent” since a majority of criminals come from one parent household. That’s why they use the terms “baby daddy” and “baby momma” in the hood. That’s sad for society in general. There’ snot enough social workers and police officers in Greensboro which could change decades of one-parent households.
You should ask the assistant district attorney who gave this thug probation. His name is Christopher Parrish and apparently he is trying to run for judge in Randolph County. Can’t think of a worse person to be a judge.
