A grieving Bronx family is stunned that the teen accused of sucker-punching their father and husband is being charged with a misdemeanor that could result in the suspect doing less than a year in jail.

Ildefonso Romero Jr. died days after a teenage boy allegedly sucker-punched him outside his home on Thieriot Avenue in Soundview on June 21. Witnesses said Romero had been protecting a girl from local teens who were apparently causing trouble in the street, and one of the teens punched Romero. […]

I’d suggest that family of the victim read up on the vigilante laws and apply them with malice.

"Buckshot? You DIL lacks imagination.A hollow point would be better."

I don't know about that. Double ought buckshot at close range will get the job done with a lot less chance of missing. For someone who doesn't visit the range very often they will probably be better served with the shotgun. I see shooters who don't practice much miss targets at 7 yeards with over half their shots all the time. That would only get worse in a stressful situation. Now, if the shooter is practiced with his handgun, yeah, hollow points are sweet.

We need to be forgiving of black yoots who carry the anger of their enslaved ancestors in their gangsta genes. White people should think of their beaten, raped, murdered, tortured, robbed, frightened and humiliated kin as the price of our sins, or they should start defending themselves from black thugs with deadly force. The leftist courts aren’t going to quit coddling violent blacks.

Some animals are more equal than others. I miss the rule of law.

“This guy kills my father and he’s only gonna serve a year in jail? What kind of justice is that?” asked Noel Romero. So make sure to locate his 'release address for future contact.

Next time whoever is doing it will not get a “What are you doing?” They’ll get a face full of buckshot. Face. Full.

As it should be.
