Build the WALL!

Liz Oct 1, 2019 - 11:34 am

I must have missed it; did the article mention his status?

Switch the player—if it had been a white male as the shooter, what would have been your comment? I’m willing to bet his actions would not be viewed as a representation of an entire people much less a politically charged comment.

I’m all for less crime as I live in Antioch. But let’s keep the conversation on point and not muddy the waters with ignorant decisive comments. The decline of intellectual discourse has been the greatest American tragedy.

Grace Oct 1, 2019 - 4:02 pm

I agree completely and the wall IS being built as we type. If you check the police reports and descriptions of the assailants and their names, we can tell where they came from. We need to stop them from our country and our state whether they come in here legally or illegally. Some cultures are just more prone to violence.
This is a public safety issue.

Grace a bich Oct 2, 2019 - 10:37 am

Grace you white prune old lady. Move out of the country. Being a Native American. You white folk stole and murder. Grace over talking about how one race (Mexicans) should be banned from the country even if they came in legally? Oh boy do I wish you white people never ruined this land in the first place. Get off your high horse, the land was never yours to begin with. You uneducated white piece of sht

Grace Oct 4, 2019 - 10:06 pm

First, I’m hardly an “old lady.” I was born 1995 … do the math! Second, “Mexican” is not a race. It’s nationality. Third, no one owned this land! If so, where are the deeds? You should be thanking GOD that we white people are here or you would be starving to death. Fourth, “uneducated?” I have a MS degree from Stanford! So there!

Max Oct 6, 2019 - 8:25 pm

LOL, Grace! He has to use his fingers and toes to count!

Gimme a break Oct 1, 2019 - 4:42 pm

What wall would we need to build for the gentleman(used very loosely) accused of touching 3 underage girls inappropriately??? You sir (again loosely used) are a troll,open your eyes..all races commit crime. I think you ought to build a bridge…so u can get over your phobias,and s someone else posted…did they mention his status…..??

Olivia Oct 1, 2019 - 6:34 pm

But people from some cultures and races commit more crimes than others ……… by the way, what exact race are Hispanics?

Gimme a break Oct 2, 2019 - 10:41 am

You are correct, forgive me. We are all of the human race, so we’ll say all ethnicities commit crime. Better? And you are correct that “ some cultures and races commit more crimes than others”.

In 2013, number and percentage of murder arrests by race were:

Black or African Americans 4,379 = 51.3%
White Americans (non-Hispanic Americans) 2,861 = 33.5%
Hispanic Americans 1,096 = 12.8%
American Indians or Alaska Natives 98 = 1.14%
Asian Americans 101 = 1.18%
From UCR.FBI.GOV

Oh P.S.
Olivia
Origin: Latin. Meaning: “olive tree”
you’re welcome. Now try and not commit a crime, cause now you fit the description.

Roxanne Fox Oct 4, 2019 - 10:10 pm

Just because someone is named “Olivia” does that mean she’s Hispanic? It was ITALIANS who spoke Latin. Maybe she’s of Italian origin. Many Brits also name their kids “Olivia.”

We are all of the human SPECIES, not race. Race is something different.

Charlotte Oct 7, 2019 - 2:19 am

Hey Gimme a break! We are all part of the human SPECIES which is not the same as race. Have you ever taken any anthropology courses? That’s the first thing you learn.

Orion Oct 1, 2019 - 4:42 pm

“Arnulfo?” Where do they come up with such names? I think I’d do something criminal if my parents named me “Arnulfo” …. He probably cooked his own goose!

Lucky Lucy Oct 2, 2019 - 9:49 am

You’re one to talk with the name Orion haha

Mark Mason Oct 4, 2019 - 10:14 pm

And your name is LUCKY! I have a dog named “Lucky” — Orion could be a last name or a pseudonym. Don’t just to conclusions.

Rosemary Oct 4, 2019 - 11:39 pm

Have you ever heard of the ORION CONSTELLATION? The brightest constellation in the night sky? I bet you didn’t! When it comes to brain power, you’re obviously not that “Lucky.”

Max Mace Oct 6, 2019 - 8:27 pm

Rosemary, you’re preaching to total idiots who don’t know anything about ASTRONOMY or GREEK MYTHOLOGY.

Conservative Oct 2, 2019 - 10:34 am

Build the wall?
I always find it strange to see conservatives in California. I’m going to guess you never lived outside the state before.

Simonpure Oct 1, 2019 - 11:06 am

Punk coward behind a gun. What happened to the good old days when we would just fight like real men.

That Guy Oct 1, 2019 - 3:46 pm

Most drugs now are either a misdemeanor or infraction. Our DA won’t prosecute on most drug offenses. We gotta make drugs a punishable offense. People get arrested and not even a slap on the wrist these days. There is no motivation for them to correct their behavior….

Richard Oct 1, 2019 - 4:44 pm

We have a total idiot for a DA! What do you expect?

Fat boy Oct 1, 2019 - 5:08 pm

That fat piece of garbage must have eaten his way across the border…

Dg Oct 1, 2019 - 9:09 pm

But it ain’t a whiteboy stupid. If they were a real white boy you wouldn’t hear about it theyr
too smooth?

Nikkol Nastazio Oct 1, 2019 - 11:41 pm

Says the perso with the name Orion…..

Neptune's Daughter Oct 4, 2019 - 10:17 pm

Most people use creative names on here. Very few use their real name. Maybe “Orion” works as astrophysicist.

rosemary Oct 4, 2019 - 11:42 pm

You are obviously not familiar with astronomy, NIKKOL! Maybe it’s time to turn off the idiot box, get off the couch and do some reading in astronomy and Greek mythology!

Nikkol Nastazio Oct 1, 2019 - 11:43 pm

“Person even. Typos pop up at the most inopportune times. Blah.

Charlotte Oct 4, 2019 - 10:41 pm

Who would name a kid “Nikkol?” ……… wasn’t there a song about that? “Put another Nikkol in?” My great grandmother hums the tune a lot.

Tired of how many peoople are Racist and Ignorant in this city Oct 2, 2019 - 1:28 am

The comments on a crime committed are warented all the other comments about the wall and what race commits crime is just unnecessary. Every time there is a crime the people are no one certain race. I see all races in the papers and on the news committing crimes. the problem is not the different races the problem is the crime being done and the criminals committing them and from what i have seen there is no one race that commits them. If you want to stereotype then do it for all crime. I could easily sit here and say that the most people killing people are not black or hispanic. Look at all the mass shootings all commited literally by one race WHITE you dont see any blacks or hispanics shooting up schools, concerts, office buildings, nor do they bomb big events so don’t speak on race just speak about the crime because unfortunatly out here there are just as many white people committing crimes out here as there are any other race. No one is superior to another and the main ones making comments to stir stuff up are the main ones who needs to check their own back yards don’t act like you don’t have anyone in your own family that has been or is in trouble, on drugs, or not an upstanding citizen. when you become God and can say you are perfect then speak away until then keep ignorant assumptions to yourself and speak about the facts of what the story is about someone has committed a crime and killed someone else. where that person was born or not born we dont know so leave the stupid comments about irrelevant stuff out of it

Racist and right to be!! Oct 3, 2019 - 8:46 am

Blacks and mexicans commit more crimes.Its a fact!! Truth hurts!!

Dear racist and ignorantly Oct 3, 2019 - 3:51 pm

You are correct, forgive me. We are all of the human race, so we’ll say all ethnicities commit crime. Better? And you are correct that “ some cultures and races commit more crimes than others”.

Ellen Burns Oct 7, 2019 - 11:24 am

All races? Just how many races are there? I thought there were three: Asian, Caucasian and Negroid

Loss of words Oct 2, 2019 - 6:18 pm

For all of you that are making your rude stupid ignorant comments that have really nothing to do with the situation at hand…..like build the wall n he must have eating his way past the boarder. How stupid do you guys sound. First of all at least you don’t see our Latin culture on the new for having a stupid temper tantrum n shooting a bunch of innocent people. There’s a lot of things that are going on in this world that are far more worse than this. N 98% of the ppl that see it act like they didnt. And the ones making the childish comments are probably those kind. I can keep going on and on but really its pointless. At the end of the day none of you know what ur saying aboutvthe shooter and the victim.
Actually its quiet sad n messed up all the way around. Family,!!! fuck?? I just want to know wtf and ?? this is out …. REST EASY

Jennifer Oct 7, 2019 - 11:29 am

Hey, Loss of words! You need to upgrade your English language skills, amigo! Just how “quiet sad” are things on your end?

Rose Del Vecchio Oct 4, 2019 - 10:22 pm

If you are referring to the “Latin”culture, you’re obviously referring to our Italian Mediterranean culture. Our ancestors were the ones who spoke the language and gave the world great art work and architecture and, of course, food! Viva Italia!
