Ahh yes another cartel wonder boy. Lets open the borders some more and let anyone in without screening. Soon we will be as bad a places in Mexico where the good folks have no protection.
Race bait much. Please tell us Sherlock how you deduced cartel? Love to hear your racist, racial profiling.
If his name was Billy Joe Bob you’d have a opinion on what demographic he was.
Actually, No, we are all humans. Good humans and bad humans. My friend SGT. Oscar Ruiz was killed in IRAQ he was a great human this Oscar Ruiz is bad, that is all. FUCKING ignorant asses!!
Keep that border open though. Wow so beautiful & liberating!
There is a border in Rhonert Park!!
The border isn’t “open.” Quit lying.
Oh your friend wasn’t murdering people over what was undoubtedly a illegal drug deal? Because that changes the demographic, if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, think cartel not American war hero. Insults don’t make you more right, quite the opposite usually, just makes you seem irrational, emotional and wrong.
Just a similar name was the point which led you to a conclusion of racial profiling. In truth, neither my friend nor this guy is cartel both US citizens. This Oscar killed someone at a marijuana grow. Notice how I used zero racial profiling in making that statement.
Typical of someone who is caught making racists comments to point out how irrational, emotional and wrong when called out while forgetting how racist your own comments are. Some weak sauce!!!
Insulting me again by calling me racist just proves you are emotional. I could insult you, and it is warranted, but there is no point. It’s called criminal profiling and it’s only even close racist if its wrong.
Insulting your opinions, yes, not you directly. You keep trying to make it personal.
Only trying to point out there is no need to use as you put it “criminal profiling” that logic is archaic and rooted in hatred.
Fact is Oscar killed someone at a grow scene. Blame America cause that is where this kid grew up. We need to get our heads outta the sand and the finger pointing needs to start with us first.
Calling me racist repeatedly is a direct insult, pretending it isn’t is arrogance. Ignoring criminal profiling is stupid, quite often race is attached because it’s relevant.
This Oscar was a sweet kid who came here from Mexico when he was 7. He was raised in America and had academic struggles. This is tragic.
I wouldn’t assume someone with an Hispanic name was part of organized crime
Have you been to mexico lately? Its no longer the paradise depicted in your travel books. Its a living hell.
Don’t you libs have some script about how unfortunate and unhappy the Mexicans are for living in a country infested with cartel members who would cut their head off in the blink of an eye and who would be better off living in the USA?
What happened to that narrative? Its racist if it doesn’t fit your script?
How much is JIDF paying you?
No and neither has Oscar he’s from Rohnert Park.
Actually I took my first trip to Mexico this spring. I was nervous as a result of the same racist rumors we as Americans are fed. My European fiancé chastised me for believing the crap from the media. I had a great time and I wondered several times why I have never visited a place whose culture and people were so influential to my life and who I am. Mexico felt much safer than many parts of the US that I have visited.
Mexico is a large and diverse country. Did you go to a tourist spot or did you see a slice of real life for real people who live there?
Things are very different depending on if you are somewhere like Cancun or Cabo versus somewhere like Nuevo Laredo or Juarez.
It seems only the privileged have a wonderful time in Mexico these days. I haven’t been there since the 80’s… Bartering for switchblade knives & Pancho’s in Tijuana. What went wrong over there?
“Its a living hell.”
LOL. No it’s not
Ok so explain why it’s ok to allow undocumented across the border but the borders north and south on US side are closed to legal travel due to Covid by Biden till end of August.
Oscar’s documents are from Rohnert Park guess that throws a wrench in your racists viewpoint.
It sounds like you are saying that a person who is from Rohnert Park(even if born and raised) could NOT have any affiliation with a cartel?
The Land border to Mexico is closed, you can fly there no problem.
Undocumented are not “ being allowed to cross the border”. The border has not been opened to all who want to come through. That is a right wing talking point being drilled into your brain.
Are illegals sneaking through other ways? Yes. Are illegals overstaying their visas? Yes.
The border gates have not been flung open by Biden .
It’s at a 21 year high on crossing numbers, pull your head out of the sand if your going to call other people ignorant.
Why is there such a high?
Dont ask me, your party’s in charge.
Isn’t it because folks of all types from all over the world dream of coming to the land and freedom, equality, and opportunity for all?
Then why a 21 year high? And equality, I thought were were racist? I here that every single day on here.
Ya shure.. denial. Your people are so amazing & liberating! Your president is doing such a wonderful job! Thank God he’s so not racist! Such beautiful freedom for all! Open that wall! MS13 & all criminal scum deserve all the same freedoms on this soil! So woke & wonderful! They should build a rainbow bridge over the wall… Such a beautiful symbol of peace love & freedom!
There’s a wall in Rhonert Park?? They have their own president in Rhonert Park.
His documents say he’s from Rhonert Park.
That is a lie.
The land borders are closed but air travel is open. I saw many Mexican families lawfully entering the US this spring.
Gee sorry did I offend you with some facts? Too bad.
Humm,
Hispanic..check
involved in a grow check
Involved in a murder check
Looks cartel ish to me. What is your guess? do you think he is a Neo-NAZI? please let us know some facts instead of just pulling out the over used race card and being offended like it is so stylish these days.
No offense to me we all see your true colors. Please enlighten us some more as you prove my point.
They think no one can tell. It’s hilarious.
Humm amazing how a few FACTS change things.
1. You are assuming I am white.
2. Because you think I am white you assume I am racist. Who is the real racist here? Well looks like you are.
3. large grows with Hispanics running them are cartel operations. That’s not racist that is fact.
4. Cartels are very organized operations that have very strict rules. You cross them you die. In some cases they kill your whole family.
5. I never said anything about Hispanics in general I said it was a cartel and cartels are bad. Just because you are a racist does not mean I am. In fact I stated the good folks of Mexico deserve better.
In short take your woke race bating and harass someone else. I am not putting up with it. The go to intimidation these days is to call someone a racist instead of arguing with facts or with intelligence just to put them on the defense. When people start the race card right off it tells me they are incapable of logical thought and just spout things like a parrot without really knowing what they are talking about. You name fits you legal lettuce.
lol, WOW, thanks for playing. I mentioned zero shade. Maybe try reading comments instead of answering assumptions in your head it would probably make you sound less racists.
He is a kid from Rhonert Park. His name is Oscar a US Citizen born in the United States before the year 2000 who committed a murder at a marijuana grow while he worked as a laborer. Do you comprehend!!!!
Rohnert Park, check
US Citizen, check
You are a racial profiler, check and a very poor one at that!
https://mendovoice.com/2021/07/suspect-in-bell-springs-road-homicide-identified/
Where does it say that he is a citizen of the US?
Where does it say he is not? Weird, huh, how this fact is left out of 97% of articles in regards to other apprehanded murder suspects. It’s a sickness!!
Facts are the kid is from Rhonert Park. Facts are you use racial profiling to judge other humans. Facts are your archaic way of thinking does not help our country progress. Absorb these facts then maybe we can discuss the remainder of your culturally negative opinions.
Wait, being a member of a cartel is considered a race now? If someone with the last name of Vittorio killed some one on a probable illegal dope grow And I assumed he was part of the Italian mafia, would you consider that racist to?
Yes. That’s what racism is: prejudice against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group…ie someone has an Italian last name and is involved in a crime ergo they are a member of a cartel. Doesn’t mean you are wrong but it doesn’t mean you are right. You would need to have proof of cartel membership–prior arrests, affiliates, tattoos, etc.
Thanks Kym.
It really is sooo simple ya’ll.
There’s a LOT of presumptuous arrogance here. It really is serious BS.
where did you learn your sense of justice KYM seriously you think murderer should live?
What are you referring to?
Wait, so I’m being racist because I don’t have prior proof that he was a cartel member, So cartel is considered a race now? Or am I racist for assuming that he’s Mexican/South America or at the least a descendant of, even though he has a Spanish last name? I mean, when I hear of a armed home invasion by a black American I usually make the assumption that it’s some gang banger from down south, but that doesn’t mean I think I’m superior to, or hate black people. When I hear of a fire in one of our local bum camps I assume it’s probably some white piece of s*** tweaker, that doesn’t mean I think I’m superior to or hate all white people either. But by your definition at least I don’t discriminate in my racist bigotry…
Are you telling me that every Hispanic man that commits a crime is a member of a cartel? Couldn’t a Hispanic simply just be a criminal like Joe Smith the blond guy down the road that tweeks and shot somebody while high?
It’s really possible to be shades of racist. Not all racism consists of hanging black people while wearing a pointy white hat. Most of us have a light shading of racism on different subjects and with different people. But literally the definition of racism is “prejudice against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group.”
If you look at every Hispanic person who commits a crime as a member of a cartel, you aren’t really seeing the true range of possibilities for Hispanics. I don’t know how much it matters in your life if you make the judgement that he must be cartel. But if law enforcement was trying to break up cartels and they made the assumption that every Hispanic man who broke a law was a member of a cartel, I don’t think they’d get very far in accomplishing their goals.
Since they always obfuscate whether criminals were here illegally, and illegal labor is huge on these farms, hell yeah, cartel seems like a great bet. We don’t control our border, but they sure do. Good luck crossing without their say so.
Rohnert Park!!
https://mendovoice.com/2021/07/suspect-in-bell-springs-road-homicide-identified/
Are you saying that Hispanic cartel members can’t be from rohnert park? That seems kinda racist. Allot of them are permanent residents of round valley.
Well since I know people from the Cartel I can tell you this kid is not. Keep trying save face it just keeps pointing out how much of a racists you are.
You don’t know anybody. Your just trying to flex your wokism. The cartel has numerous sites in that area.
Mile👍…. “Wokism”, that’s a good one. Wokism is a mental illness.. there’s no point in even trying to get through to them. The Koolaid runs strong in their veins. We need our mental institutions back. We’re having a woke apocalypse & zombiden is their leader.
you keep calling a 23 year old a “kid”.
it reminds me of a certain politicized media that always chooses 6th grade class photos of individuals killed by police, when there are available photos from their facebook page with them brandishing handguns and using drugs on full display.
agenda, much?
While some media organizations use Facebook photos, in reality, using a photo without permission unless for some incredibly greater public good (escaped murderer for instance) is theft in my opinion.
Were not opening the borders more. Have you even been outside the US? You can walk right into Canada on the PCT. You can walk right into Mexico from multiple places. Our borders are not 400 foot tall steel walls. How bout we work on our own issues such as Americans appetite for drugs. Fix that, the cartels go away.
Biden is completely unfit for office. I never liked Trump but refused to project all my self made problems on him.
Just took busting Oscar for Biden to suck. Trying to over throw our government was the last Trump straw I could take. Not to mention the continued lies of voter fraud. Still no proof!!!!
This time legallettuce you are right on the money!
Trump did not try to overthrow the govt. But it’s clear a disproportionate amount of these drug related crimes in this area involve Latinos. All you have to do is read this website. We have a big crime problem related to the marijuana industry here and to other drugs also, involving all types of people. Nothing could be more obvious. Its also obvious our elected officials dont take it seriously enough. They just think of the money not the consequences.
I would say a big problem with gun related violence.
Don’t forget about all the stabbings!
Yes, Trump most certainly did try to overthrow the government. We are a government by the people and for the people. So when you do not acknowledge the votes of the people like Trump which is the definition of a democracy. You then try and remain in power like a fascists and your fascists following try and dictate the outcome of a fair election that is called a coup!!! As a veteran I call that treason [edit] and shame on anyone who does not recognize the severity of the incidents.
I don’t recognize the severity of the incident. It had virtually no impact on our democracy. The only fatality was a woman killed by the police. There was a impeachment and treason wasn’t one of the charges. Trump was actually acquitted wasn’t he?
The capital officer killed by insurrectionist. I am sure his family would disagree.
Brian Sicknick died of Natural causes, you ever get tired of being wrong? Even a broken watch is right twice a day
They claim the official total deaths is 7 but that is complete bullshit. Sicknick died of a stroke the next day, 2 officers committed suicide later, they probably had info on the clintons and Epstein, 2 trumpers died of accidents, one trumper died of a overdose, and 1 lady was shot, quite likely without just cause, by police. So the total is one death, and that was caused by police. Liberals, the government and the media all established what counts as a direct death with the blm riots, strokes, overdoses, accidents, and suicides don’t count or we have to add a crap ton of deaths the the blm riots.
The Clinton/Epstein aside gave me a nice chuckle.
Spot on with the rundown on deaths.
The investigation into events of that day should be thorough and they should be made public. There is an incredible number of hours of video (14,000?). Why not make every bit of it public and let us all see what happened? Plenty of folks will volunteer time examining it and there is little doubt that law enforcement could identify specific individuals. The intelligence available leading up to that day needs to be examined too. Who among those present were there in coordination with each other and what were their plans?
Shine a light on it all. Let the people see what really happened.
Stars, This site is a pretty close approximation to what you asked for. https://projects.propublica.org/parler-capitol-videos/ Click on the red “Inside the Capitol” to see some active footage.
Did you feel the same for the prior 4 years when over a dozen democrat congress people refuse to even recognize Trump as a legitimate president? Or during the many anti trump protest that occurred on White House grounds, including protesters wielding Trump dolls in guillotines? Or during the three-and-a-half-year investigation of the last election?
Yes, he most certainly tried to overthrow our government. The people voted in fair elections and when you disregard the will of the people of a democratic government that is considered a coup!! As a veteran that is treason and they should all hang. Allowing these Facists a say in our politics is a failure of our constitution.
Trump isn’t in our politics. You keep using fascist in reference to the past administration? Did you quit paying attention to the actions of the current administration because you are too overwhelmed with the last administration. Because of you like using that fascist word, there’s still plenty you can use it about.
His facicists followers still hold political office.
That’s how they try to worm out of it.
Oh, Trump isn’t President any more. They actually think that’s a valid reason why Trump shouldn’t be discussed.
We are only allowed to talk about the current President, as if that’s a rule of some sort. What a load…
In my opinion trump and his entire family deserve to be arrested, his lawyers, his accountants, his lobbyist, his maids all deserve to be arrested, that’s a bit harsh, I’m sure his maids needs a raise because he screws his employees, but if that happens and I point out that the same exact logic applys to biden, your side goes ballistic and screams “Trump!” If you don’t use the same level of criticism on the current administration as you did the last administration you don’t deserve to be taken seriously.
So I guess that the election investigations in 2000,2004 and 2016 were all coup d’etat. Or does that only apply when Republicans are asking for investigations?
Those elections involved court cases for various “real”, documented with evidence & proof, problems with the voting machines & counts and about how the FL state election commissioner was also part of the Bush campaign (illegal).
During none of those years did anyone attempt to stop the certification of the vote by the Congress directly through force.
Nor did any candidate incite violence.
There maybe some small comparisons between the last prez election and the years u mention but there are many more contrasts….meaning they were vastly different scenarios with different causes and effects.
What does this have to do with murder on Bell Springs Rd.?
Not committed by one of Trumps “bad hombres”. Just another moron with a gun.
Exactly to Mr & Mrs!
All these little Sonoma County dudes. Run up on the weekends. Loaded up with 30 packs of beer in the back of the truck. Party party party. Kill the deer, quail, rabbits. Right on it is BBQ TIME! Its all fun n games. That is till the s*** hits the fan. Got their Rock Revivals dirty. BAM. Somebody hits the dirt and it all goes to hell in a handbasket.
Ummm…ok
Pretty much
Don’t be hatin’.
Lol lol. Sheesh if I was hating I know that the comment would be way worse than that LOL LOL LOL. At the end of the day it has nothing to do with hate it has to do with ridiculous behavior. Why the hell do people just make these idiotic mistakes over and over again? There’s a plethora of examples out there! WOW… now this young man is another fine example. Got the GRAND PRIZE this week on stupid people win stupid prizes!!!
Where did they get a handbasket???
Where did he get the handbasket? He probably effing stole it from the dude he SHOT!
Dude ! 22 y old just ruined your whole life , cause of you got mad ? You took a life ! Now u have none
“Its a living hell.”
LOL. No it’s not
So we’re not talking about the country with six out of the top 10 cities with the highest murder rates in the world. There’s sixth city with the lowest murder rate out of the other 5 has over three times as many murders per year compared to the number one city in America..
Blah blah wasted breath arguing racial blah blah 🙄 sad someone was killed an all you wanna do is argue… what about coming together, community, say a nice word or a prayer to the family … rip sorry for your loss
Clearly the gun and bullets killed him. We must remove all guns to stop people from killing.
