Proving my point

Hamilton County Municipal Court Judge Ted Berry gave 41-year-old Norman Holmes a 90-day jail sentence and a lecture Monday after Holmes' 109th misdemeanor conviction.

Holmes pleaded guilty to a theft charge but had no answer when the judge asked why he didn't become productive instead of stealing.


He doesn't care about becoming productive...that's why.

Bring it back to the basics.

When I was in Williamsburg we went to the capitol building. We learned that in colonial times, when someone was guilty of a crime they had punishment and were let loose. If they performed another crime they were executed. That's the way it should be! People aren't learning their lesson. There was a shooting in a Wal-Mart parking lot last week. A woman was shot because she didn't want to give a criminal her purse.

Look at the perps rap sheet:

Elijah was first imprisoned in 1984 following a conviction on charges of escape and petty theft. Paroled late in 1984, he committed burglary the following year and was sentenced in 1986 to five to 15 years.

"He was in and out on that case about 10 times" due to parole violations, Carson said. "He violated about every six months. It was in and out, in and out, in and out. Everything seems to be centered around drugs."

Elijah's 1986 sentence finally expired in 2006, but he was back that October through April 2007 on a drug possession conviction. He was readmitted to prison June 18, 2008, on charges of drug possession and breaking and entering, and was released last Thursday, Carson said.


He obviously doesn't care and is just going to do it again. STOP the stupidity in the courts! There should be a limit on how many times you go to jail before they kill you.
