Lets see. His record goes back to 1985 and is 45 pages long. The wacko libs have pretty much destroyed 3 strikes and you are locked up for life. I am thinking 45 pages of ‘strikes’ is plenty and it’s time to lock up this burden on society in the Department of Corrections for life, with no chance of parole.
A felon committing another crime? Suely not. I cannot believe that he is still in custody.
