These pathetic excuses for human beings should get the death penalty. That way they won't be able to commit more crimes or kill again.

The AZ Republic won't even post the pictures of the vermin nor the name of the "minor" vermin. Of course they won't allow comments either.

WOW! I guess EVT is really getting paranoid... There were like 10 comments here when I began writing my comments. I guess since they were considered "racial comments". I didn't see it that way (except one) but hey... who's got the right to free speech anymore anyway?
Guess you have to go to AZ Republic for that...

Sad, I'm not sure what happened, or if the victim would still be alive if he just gave them his computer. You life is more valuable. In any event, I hope the scum that ended the life of a human being for nothing more than a computer receives the same...

Sorry, but this is not a black issue. This is an issue of the people. We the people have allowed the few "human rights" advocates to take the fear out of prisons. There is no fear of a horrifying public death.
Criminals know that life sentences no longer mean "life". They are allowed "deals" and "plea agreements" to either rat out someone else or become snitches.
Over crowding means early release. (Ask the starlets that get hours in jail, instead of months). Money talks... you can afford a good lawyer, you get a better deal.
Death Row means life. It rarely means death anymore. There's always some way to appeal. Look at the arguments now about the "lethal injection" drug.
I believe Death Row should be quick, and the death should be as terrifying as possible.
Put fear back into going to prison, let the whiner's whine...

Society has a serious problem when 2/3rds of black children are born to single mothers and a huge percentage of black males are in prison. The website sentencingproject dot org says 1 in 8 black males are in prison on any given day, and if current trends continue, 1 in 3 black males will serve out a prison sentence sometime during their lives. That doesn't even include those on probation or parole at any given time.
For the past few decades, it had less to do with prejudice and more to do with fatherless homes. What was the percentage of black males in jail during the 50's, 60's & 70's when prejudice was more likely to be a bigger reason for incarceration? I bet they were much lower percentage-wise.
Expanding welfare benefits have made the black father practically unnecessary. And if a black child tries to do their best in school they are mocked for acting "white". Bill Cosby tried to address these problems in a speech years ago - and he took a lot of heat from so-called black leaders at the time.
I hope the mothers of these two wastes of skin didn't give birth to any other children that lived. They don't deserve any more after these two turned out like they did. If they committed cold blooded murder they deserve the death penalty or at minimum life in prison. I wish I had something better to say but I don't.

No surprise here. Their parents must be so proud. Way to fit a stereotype. Enjoy prison, losers !
