I hope they use the same federal charges that Connecticut used in the 90's to lock the gangs up and they must do 85% of their sentance.

La Familia! I thought this was a Southern California gang.

[GET USED TO IT]

Since Connecticut appears to be a 'welcoming state' for ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, they will come in droves. My state is learning the hard way that any failure to enforce the ILLEGAL immigration laws shows them a WEAKNESS and so ILLEGAL ALIENS will pour in by the millions and abuse every system in place in order to take advantage. In addition, it has brought into our state an additonal 30 PLUS LATINO STREETGANGS to join the turf battles between the already-existing gangs and several dozen additional police had to be added to city payrolls to attempt protecting the innocent. Our taxes continue to rise exorbitantly for every needed service and as always, the poor, hard-working, sap of a TAXPAYER gets screwed. No good deed goes UNPUNISHED.

Funny. All La familia does is destroy families.

I heard they were a church group but after wasting 2 years the cops hadda bust somebody for something.

[Sharp Al]

La Familia should only be allowed to hire defense lawyers that only speak english. 20 years in prison for anyone that speaks any other language or tries to interpret for them.
