in response to ridley:

she could have accomplished the same impact with two years, but then its election time so she has to show how tough she can be. we see it every election time or when there are high profile cases. judges using those in their charge for political opportunism. who is the bigger crook?

It's damned if you do, damned if you don't. We read continually that our elected officials should do something about this non-sensical problem, but when they do, you demean their decisions. These punks should receive the same punishment they dole out in Singapore. A caning on their bare buttocks that will leave permanent graffiti stripes where the sun don't shine, but that is cruel and unusual punishment. The kid is 18 and out doing society absolutely NO good, while there are many young men of that age who are heroes in Iraq and Afghanistan putting their life and limb on line for our safety and well being. Congratulations Judge Saldana. You are doing a tough job as remanded by those who voted for you, and you have our support. Be prepared to ship every one of the graffiti perps off as they come through your Court until there are none left on our streets. Because of your wisdom and strength, we can begin to recover from this blight on our society.
