10-1/2 years sounds light for murder.

The judge nailed that one- "Breathtaking in its inhumanity". Tragic, sad, and pathetic-very pathetic.

Any person who thinks this way should be put on a bike themselves. This will give them perspective and put a lot of bikes out there.

She'll probably just become more callous. That's just amazing.

I would say it's less callous than laughing about someone you've murdered, but I don't like nooses either.

Yes, it is. There is a major difference between laughing off the death of another human being that occurred at your hands while you were committing a crime and wishing/suggesting that the person who had just done that received a more severe punishment.

Sorry, perhaps I should have worded it differently. Such as "isn't the picture callous also?" It treats the death penalty as a joke. It is callous. Only the degree of callousness can be debated.

I can only imagine what her family must feel about both her behavior and pictures of nooses.

Sorry. No sypathy for her.

During the conversation, the man told Arrington that an acquaintance believed she should get a medal and a parade because she had "taken out" a "tree hugger, a bicyclist, a Frenchman and a gay guy all in one shot."

Arrington laughed. When the man said he knew it was a terrible thing to say, she responded, "No, it's not."


No feelings of remorse for the victim or the crime, even after sobering up.

I wonder what the family of the victim thinks about her and nooses. I think it's a simple equation imho.

This is all about someone who just doesn't get it... doesn't appreciate the significance of what she's done...

She needs therapy---or she gets out in 8-10 years and does the same damn thing again.
