The Democrats finest right here.
Other than being just another annoying jerk, was there any reason for your claim? Any basis in fact?
Wondering why its okay to gender identify the perps but not classify them in other ways? Are we okay with the dtereotype that all theives are men, or just not cool to say three Latin ‘X'” dudes?
Rufus, what is your problem? Do you have to blame Democrats for everything? We get it…you’re a Trump supporter. Not every crime is committed by a voter. Some are punk kids not even OLD enough to vote. You ARE an annoying jerk.
Trish the enabling excuser: Rufus & Alfred E. Told the truth/facts of the odds & statistics of who it will probably be!! Stop condoning crime & violence. What will you say when they continue to graduate and rape, beat up your husband(?), you & your children!? Will you still suppress the truth/facts?! Wake up, not woke up to reality, stop being Naive!!
Great job SCV Sheriffs!

Ken: If that’s true??, it’s because the scumbag thief’s go to decent areas where decent people work hard to enjoy nice lifestyles!
