Don’t pamper young criminals with lenient sentences

I want to give a shout out to Todd Welch for his recent column in The Herald. It was about the lenient soft Democrats that want to pamper youth gangsters and car thieves. I voted last election for judges on the single issue of how they were gonna sentence all these kids that appear to be hard criminals.

Their parents obviously failed to rein them in, so they hang out at night and commit almost all our crimes. Never mind why. We the public should be protected from these little thugs. Lock them up long enough to teach them how to get a job, how to be nice, how to respect property of working people.

That shouldn’t be too much to ask. Vote for law enforcement judges.
