Full story: Chicago Tribune

Edgar Diaz may be well into his 50s by the time he's a free man - all because a rival gang member called him a "flip-flop." On Thursday, Diaz, who turned 16 this week, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder in ...

Now he has street cred, it just will not do him any good in prison. You think they could have threw down with the fist, but I forgot they can't fight unless they have a gun.

If he had more bullets we might have fewer gang-bangers out there today, I say that as long as he is only killing gang-bangers, no harm-no foul. They are all useless pieces of crap and a blight on society. Oh yeah, right, I forgot, he was going to be our next heart surgeon. No matter, he was a piece of dung, a gang-banger, a criminal, etc., etc.

That's what that punk gets! Glad he's off the street. My heart goes out to his mother. She could have prevented the killing if she had punished his butt. That kid needed a major butt whooping. Now he's gonna be taking it in the butt by Bubba or Juanito in the joint.

Isn't it ironic that now he's got to wear flip flops into his 50's.

Is this all really happening? It's just getting scarier and scarier. This did not happen because he has a single mother, there had to be so many other factors. Maybe they wouldn't have been heart surgeons, but maybe thay could have been successful and happy in other ways.

Is this not sad. What is the world coming to. Guns, guns and guns. My own child was a victim of the Latin Kings. This is getting pathetic. I have a son and daughter in HS. I go to bed scared every night. Quit blaming his parents. I am sure they are hurt enough. It is easy to say where was his mom. I am sure she was there. But how do you contol what your children do. As a mother I can tell you if this were my child I would be right there behind him. He made a huge mistake and now he is going to pay for it. Do we need to harass his mother. My heart goes out to her, she did not pull the trigger but I am sure she won't sleep nights anymore. To this boys mom I will remember you in my prayers. But you are not to blame. This is a sad situation. I hope everyone leaves you alone. And may God watch over your son.

Not only do us law abiding tax paying citizens not only have to feed and clothe and pay legal costs for this pillar of society, but to boot we have to pay an interpreter for Mami in the court room. Unbelievable. When will it end.

LMAO!!! Calling someone a flip flop gets you killed nowadays! He should have used a harsher word! That kid is going to take it in the butt now for being called a flip flop! Hey, he is still a flip flop - he probably used to like girls but now he will be loving the boys!
why do you call yourself peace when you wish harm on others.

everyone situation is differant and you cant say that you can be around kids 24/7 to make sure they dont get into trouble. you dont know how this mother raised her kid so dont assume she didnt try or care because her son committed murder.
