Let me guess, your read “Hispanics” and all of a sudden your racist blood automatically condemns all people of Hispanic origin who possibly were born and raised in the states….Build that wall around your house and stay there.

Thank God ! They’ve both been captured. I hope they keep them locked up for awhile. Shooting at kids, a high speed chase, bailing in King Salmon. How many people have to be put in danger before the start throwing away the keys to the cell?

If found guilty, how about allowing the dads of the children that were shot at… their own street justice. Bet they could save us taxpayers six digits !

I was just coming into eureka when the chaos began Thought 2ND sheriff was going to hit bycycle crossing @ pearsons. High speed crowed section of road didn’t look good glad no one was hurt. It is not about race it is about the menacing epidemic of drugs most likely behind behaviors never the less we are not allowed to be free of occurrences individuals of all races inflict on others unless we come together as a whole building a fortress of safety.

Thank Humboldt’s County’s leadership for insisting on keeping corrupt & incompetent people in jobs. Our former Director of Mental Health quit because it was obvious to her that our leadership did not give a shit about anyone but themselves or their obligation to our communities’ well being. Also note that addiction & nepotism by those who serve our community is driving this place South! With this increasingly dark behavior who would want to raise their children here?

It is not going to get better!

Timothy Ramirez looks like death walking he is really sucked up.I’d have to say it’s because of a huge amounts of controlled substances .being injected to the neck .because the vains in his arms are all shot. I’m sure if he is in jail he’s going threw withdrawals,I don’t feel sorry for him one bit.suffer scum .
