Did you read the article ggg posted in post 97? The previous convictions were enough that he shouldn't have been out. Beating a police officer, stabbing, robbery with a firearm, domestic violence, etc. 59 convictions by age 31. This isn't a guy who smoked some weed and shoplifted. He is a repetitive violent criminal - for the protection of everyone else he should have been in prison.
I'm not saying 3 strikes and you're out. But 50 strikes seems like enough chances to me.
