President Trump wants a ‘fast trial’ and the ‘death penalty’ for the gunman who shot two LA deputies, if they die.
The deputies, a 31-year-old woman and a 24-year-old man, were shot in their car near a metro station in the city of Compton on Saturday night. Video footage shared by the sheriff’s department shows the gunman approaching the vehicle, then opening fire “without warning or provocation.“

Protesters have been picketing the hospital where the officers are both in critical condition chanting “we hope they die.”
RT reports: The two deputies were taken to hospital in critical condition, and underwent surgery late on Saturday night. As they fought for their lives, a crowd of protesters descended on the hospital’s emergency room, with some outside chanting“we hope they die.” According to a tweet from the sheriff’s department, the protesters blocked entries and exits to the hospital, and were eventually dispersed, with two arrested after a scuffle with officers.
President Donald Trump was livid. “If they die, fast trial [and] death penalty for the killer,” he tweeted on Sunday. “Only way to stop this.”
If the deputies did die and the killer was caught and tried, California law would allow for the death penalty. However, nobody has been executed in California since 2006, and Governor Gavin Newsom issued a moratorium on executions last year. Capital punishment can be ordered by the federal justice system, but in practice, most death sentences are handed down by state courts.
Trump often takes to Twitter to demand the executions of particularly heinous criminals. Last month he urged federal prosecutors to “again seek the death penalty” for Boston marathon bomber Dzokhar Tsarnaev, after his death sentence was vacated in May. Before becoming president, Trump called for the execution of Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) terrorists, cop killers, mass shooters and pedophiles.
“Got to do something about these missing children grabbed by the perverts,” he tweeted in 2012. “Too many incidents – fast trial, death penalty.”

Death penalty is the only solution to prevent a democracy failing the people.
George Bizos is celebrated under the anc yet he argued for the death penalty to be abolished while america & britain ushered in our “democracy” in south africa.
