Martinez has to serve 17 for burning a gay pride flag. That means that White could possibly get out in 15 years. We should demand the same degree of precision and completeness from our legislators, not the current level of "what would a reasonable person in a similar circumstance feel like ?". He was sentenced to 50 years in prison but will be eligible for parole after serving a minimum of 30 percent of his sentence. Last month, Adolfo Martinez, 30, was convicted of a hate crime, third-degree harassment and reckless use of fire, the Des Moines Register reports. We should demand better.Īs a society we are capable of incredible degrees of precision in complex engineering documents that allow complex equipment manufactured by completely different companies to interoperate without any of the engineers in either company speaking with other. For at least a year now long-suffering newspaper readers have had to endure dire warnings from Unionist politicians about the dastardly Nats turning the Commonwealth Games into some sort of evil referendum propaganda campaign. BY MARTY JOHNSON 12/19/19 02:39 PM EST An Iowa man who burned a church LGBTQ flag in June was sentenced to 16 years in prison Wednesday. But make the time needed to serve fit the crime. If someone uses a gun to commit a crime they should be able to get guns after they serve their time. You shouldnt lose say your gun rights for life after youve served your time. We have clowns in our legislatures and that has led to us getting used to a terrible quality of legislation. The 26-year-old has been suspended for insubordination multiple times in the minor leagues and winter ball, and caused clubhouse friction several times this year most notably when, as the Daily News first reported, he asked out of a pinch-hit at-bat in an attempt to avoid retaliation after pimping a home run. At the same time though the sentence should be DONE once the time is served.

If there are different sets of circumstances that should lead to different sentences, they should be spelled out precisely in the law. Once the facts are determined by the jury the sentence should be precisely prescribed by law. There should be zero leeway in sentencing. Anything else is arbitrary, and thus unjust. Adolfo Martinez, the flag burner, didnt get 15 years JUST for stealing and burning down the LGBT flag and making threats, he got that long term sentence because he already had two previous FELONIES and by Iowa state law, is treated as an habitual offender. The same set of facts should always lead to the same outcome. IS is a new phenomenon in the face of an on-going conflict in the Middle-East in what I refer to as the Shami theatre.
