LOS ANGELES - A Los Angeles-area teenager who ran over a mother walking her child in a stroller in Venice in 2021 and received just a few months of diversionary camp as punishment was gunned down in Palmdale this week, according to FOX News.
Kristopher Baca, 17, of Palmdale was found fatally shot on Wednesday on a driveway in the 38600 block of 11th Street East, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

Well, if the justice system won't provide justice, people will take it into their own hands.
Maybe anarchy was the goal of the no-justice system.

Very very sad all around. No winners in this tale. However, to make lemonade of of lemons, the article never once mentioned the 17 year old career criminal had children survivors. One less SHPOS that can't elute the gene pool.

#2 -- Sadly, Gascon is still there. He survived the recall attempts against him. You may have been thinking of ex-San Francisco DA, Chesa Boudin, who was, mercifully, recalled.

I wish I could feel some sympathy for this punk, but I agree with other posters here. If the DA and judge had done their job, the punk would still be alive. In prison, but still alive.

Revenge becomes justice.

It wasn't revenge for something he had done earlier, not poisoning a teen girl at school, not running down a mother and child in a stolen car...it was for trying toooo hard to "Get with" a mall waitress, who's Family don't dig on disrespecting their fair flowers...He was toooooo Dumb to live in this world, or THAT world.
The message the Govt sent him was that he would pay no price, whatever he did, the message was also received by many many others...Those people have no fear of the cops, or the judges, or paying a price to society anymore, but they d*mn sure will make sure anyone that breaks THEIR "Laws" will pay a full measure.

Vigilante Justice? If not, coming to a City or neighborhood near you as the crime becomes rampant and the justice system has failed. At some point honest law abiding citizens get completely fed up.

Long ago in the West, in places where there was no law, good people banded together and created Committees of Vigilance. Criminals wwere punished, in proceedings which varied from lynch mobs to reasonably close approximations of normal courts of law. San Francisco had this sort of situation and cleaned out crooked police along with the criminals.
If there is no justice...the great compact of civilized society is broken. Individual vigilantes are the beginning of the blowback from this breaking of this compact, and of the lack of justice.

Governments have one task appointed by God and that is to restrain evil. When they refuse to this task lawlessness and Anarchy happen. The people will take the law into their own hands if there is no justice.

A lot of speculation in the article tying the two events together. They may be completely unrelated except for the person Kristopher Baca.

I guess the motive is unclear. One of the functions of government is to provide a justice system. Although the justice function may be subverted to support the reign of an illegitimate government, the actual function of the justice function is to deny the need for vigilantism. Does the education system still teach the lessons of the Boss Tweed era?

Imagine all of the time and money saved by not having to continuously arrest, process, fill out paperwork and provide prison accomodations for all of the future crimes that this slimy little punk would have committed. I think the shooters should be awarded medals.

My reply is why some people think I'm mean. So be it! This kid tried to poison a girl when he was 15. He tried to run over a young mom and her baby at 17. Dead at 18. At least he won't be trying to kill anyone else. Frankly, we need more of this now that the judicial system has been bought by George Soros. Can't understand how George is still alive. Every state needs a vigilante system to right the wrongs of the left-wing nuts! I would guess George and all of the people he has bought would get the message.

His killing may be unrelated to prior bad acts. Slimeballs continue to make very bad, violent choices in their lives, and some of those choices have fatal blowback.
I kinda wish it was 'payback', but maybe just another evil decision, but he didn't get away with this one.
Either way. The world is a better place with him in the ground.

Sad news a young man taken out in the prime of his life because his deeds went unpunished sufficiently. He would have been such a great citizen. Oh well shiete happens.
