I wonder who the judge will be when Tomas is arraigned on Monday.
I have my doubts 10 of the 14 active judges in that district will be impartial; meaning they likely will give him every consideration they possibly can.
A schoolteacher. This is the mentality of many that we have, teaching our children.
A product of decades of rabid Democrat Communist Party control over our Education System. Brainwashing, indoctrination, hatred, violence, is what is actually on the diploma. Then the graduates turn around become teachers and the cycle continues.
