EXCUSE ME??? PUNISH HIS FAMILY MEMBERS??? SERIOUSLY? And, you’re worried about a POLICE STATE? Yeah, that would go a LONG WAY to prevent one, now wouldn’t it? Forget the fact that this was a U.S. Citizen that has been here for 28 years!
I’m just as “anti-Illegal” as probably some of the most vocal here, but what you are suggesting will NOT stop this problem! Again, this guy was a U.S. CITIZEN — and so presumably are many of his family members you want to now punish for this guy going mental...
If you end up killing someone someday for some crazy reason, do you want YOUR FAMILY to be jailed because of it? Because THAT is what you just suggested...
You letting Lee Boyd Malvo’s family come over and visit Disneyworld, are you? Going to roll out the red carpet for Seung-Hui Cho’s kinfolk come over from Korea? That’s mighty neighborly of you, neighbor. It’s a tough one.
