Find the disgusting bastard, put a bullet behind his ear, throw him down the nearest sewer hole with the rest of the filth.

That guys tiny. I can't wait until he's caught doing this in front of a full size man and pays the consequences.

The guy is getting more brazen. These attacks are just blocks away from the police station.

he miss his priest, so he is doing it to little boys.

I have this wacky idea. It might just be crazy enough to work. Why don't the police try to stake out a few spots somewhere between 21st and 24th on 2nd ave and maybe, I don't know...on 3rd ave between say, 21st and 24th st. I know its not like this guy has a pattern or anything but who knows?

Another criminal illegal alien walking around free attacking our kids.

Another criminal illegal alien attacking our children. Deport him!
