   Perhap we could get Geraldo to assist since his views help perpetuate these horrific events.
   Thanks Michelle for presenting this opportunity to the public.

   Being a father of a twelve year old daughter every time I see Zina’s picture my heart breaks. As far as Geraldo is concerned he’s not worth the breath.

   How is it that there’s no criminal liability for the people in authority who neglect to protect and defend?

   Libby gets slammed but all the bad characters who knowingly let this killer be free are complicit in a little girl’s death. Who will hold them accountable for her murder?

    This story tore my wife an I up the moment we saw the kidnapping piece. It’s been a disaster from there. Simply unbelievable.

    I’m glad to see the state Senate doing something. I’ve quoted before about the 10th Amendment to our Constitution. We need another:

    The powers delegated to the United States by the Constitution shall be hereby revoked should the United States fail to fulfill it’s responsibilities in enacting and enforcing said Powers, and they shall given back to the States and the people and their wording in the Constitution nulified.

    Like Kennedy said, “Of the inept, by the incompetent, for the corrupt.”

    Good Morning to you as well AJMONTANA!

    It is tragic when every child’s life is taken at the hands of evil.

    It seems to get worse or either there is more reporting via the media.

    If someone killed my child I don’t know that I could stand by and wait for JUSTICE, spoken loosely, to fulfil its responsibility.

    I do believe I could actually KILL someone for that very reason.
    I don’t know how God would feel about that, but I know that Jesus adored the children. I believe the ultimate punishments from GOD would be to child predators and killers.

    So, who is responsible for this crime? Teddy? Harry? Bush? All? None? The funny thing is, thanks to voters like us, none of the above or their family will suffer what the Linnik family suffered. Some thanks for our votes!

    C’mon – rat out your source:)

    Seriously, if we know who to throw our support behind to help change things I think there are many of us who are willing to stoke outrage over this.

    If your source could provide a list of several names, or if the talk radio stations could post a list somewhere?

    This nonsense of turning a blind eye to immigrants committing crimes has got to stop. Thanks for you perseverance in this.

    Citizen makes an excellent point re: holding responsible authorities legally liable for an atrocity such as this. As to Gayle’s comment, the belief that she could kill a perp like this monster, I would do it in a hot minute in front of G_D, the world and everyone.

    Have a beautiful Sunday folks!

    Happy Sunday Everyone

    We cannot let our guard down on this issue. We must celebrate small victories and large.

    Of a happier note, my county finally did something. After years of illegal appeasment, they finally took the first steps to put a stop to it. It took consideral public outrage and an election to make this happen. The vote was 8-0.

    Of course, the battle isn’t over, the ACLU and other groups are going to fight it, go figure

    The fight goes on I hope everyone has a really great Sunday

    Michelle,

    Somebody should introduce a bill/act something like the Linnik Bill at the Capitol to help address this sort of thing as a remembrance to Zina Linnik. Didn’t Adam Walsh do something like that when his boy was abducted and then murdered? What’s more didn’t somebody, somewhere, broke the law regarding the Adam Walsh Child Protection
    and Safety Act of 2006 on reporting sex offenders to the national sex offender registry database?
    http://rpc.senate.gov/_files/L49HR4427ChldprotBB072006.pdf

    “Recidivism rates for sex offenders often exceed those of other criminals. The Department of Justice has found that released child molesters were more likely to be rearrested for a sex crime than released non-sex offenders. Released sex offenders were four times more likely to be rearrested for a sex crime than released non-sex offenders.”
    http://rpc.senate.gov/_files/L49HR4427ChldprotBB072006.pdf

    Also, I am thinking outloud here, Michelle. How many illegal aliens are in that registry? What are the odds on finding one in that registry? Would people be that stupid to put in an illegal alien sex offender in the sex offender national registry database? And if so, wouldn’t that bring a lot of attention to this sordid problem?

    Does anyone know? Anyone care to check those names in the sex offender registry and find out?

    OUR government betrays us. The thousands of Americans that have died at the hands of convicted illegal alien criminals with multiiple crimes, who will defend them, who will make right the suffering of their loved ones? No one. This is the legacy of the Bush administration. They have had 6 years to put an end to this and THEY chose not to.

    This guy’s status in this country should surprise no one. Heads up to Jerry Rivers: anyone who takes the trouble to come here illegally and then hide to get away with it is not inclined to be a model citizen in another other respect!!! File that under D for “Duh”!

    Michelle, I think we all will be waiting for your next completely warrented thermalnuclear salvo on the absurdly biased and entirely deserving Mr. Rivera. By now I’m sure you know it’s a major catheris for all of us to hear someone get your kinda words out over the air and you do an amazing job of it. And a big hat tip to Mr. O for providing the continual large-audience venue for you to do it.

    I didn’t see him. Apologize? What for? Is he playing some sort of victim here? If anything this racist prick should be apologizing as his attitude and those like him on this issue encourages this crap or at the very least allows for it to happen.

    Geraldo Rivera is concerned with only one thing; himself. If there were no TV, radio ,or print media, then GR would not have a soapbox to perform from. He is an ego driven fraud. And a ham of an actor to boot. His ego is more important than any story he reports on. I can not understand how the management at Fox News is blind to him and his antics.

    Chertoff, Bush, the initial Judge all deserve blame for the death of this girl. Bush has set the standard of ignoring the needs and safety of his country in order to repay some emotional debt he has to a family retainer. It is sick and disgusting. He has abandoned America to a delusion.

    To be fair, puhiawa, the blame squarely falls on the piece of human garbage who murdered this dear little girl.

    (I don’t think you intended to posit otherwise.)

    Inasmuch as this guy was not in prison or deported, you are spot on – the US gov’t was an enabler.

    But Puhiawa is right In a sstem like USA. the president is also the commander-in-chief and sets the standards for many things including security. Busy, not only has neglected but has actively undermined American security. Almost betraying America by abusing the office he was elected to. But, many still do not like to hold a sitting president accountable. Therefore Bush continues to destroy America, while Americans give him a free pass.

    I disagree with nothing both of you have said. i do not believe Bush knows what he is inflicting on the country, and everyone around him seems scared to tell him. As for Chertoff, he is no better than Ted Kennedy at a luau after 4 hours. He is a fool and a coward and a danger to this nation. Hillary hit the asshole right in the big X on his brain when she refused to vote for him. The man is a disgrace and an incompetent fool who has an IQ of a moron and the street smarts of a sheep at an Islamic picnic.

    puhiawa, I realize that we are in agreement. However, given the crisis USA is in, agreement is not enough, My point is that in a system like ours, we trust and depend on the president to do the right thing for America and Americans. We pay taxes, we vote, we grant highest respect and support to the office of the president. Heck the president is also trusted with the security as a commander-in-chief. Didn’t Bush take an oath to do that? Think twice before giving any sitting president a benefit of doubt. Given the importance and sensitivity of the office, the resources we trust the office with, it is critical that the president fulfils the oath taken. If not, the same office grants the president to sell-our and destroy the nation single-handedly. From day 1, Bush had an agenda of selling out America to anyone with a peso or a vote. Even a national tragedy like 9/11 has not changed that agenda. No, the office of the president is far too serious and critical to be granted leniency of being dumb, not understanding or even a low IQ. On one hand, our taxes could eb misused against America and ont he other, as wer have already seen, our security and even lives can be severely undermined by the very office we depend on. Think about this before giving the office a free pass.

    And appreciated America, she wasn’t trying to change this country into the one she left.

    Just a sweet little girl who fell victim to a set of corrupt and perverted immigration policies.
