    Trust me, this is the same guy. I just so happen to have had the displeasure of supervising this felon. He is a career criminal and considering this is the lifestyle he has chosen, I will more than likely be looking at him face-to-face once again in the near future. I hate to say it, but people like this are job security for people like me…

    Them would be the shooter and the driver of the car. That would make a them.

    Based on public record, you can throw the victim in for boot.

    I don’t commit these crimes, I just read about “them”.

    Wow….I stand corrected if this is the same guy. Still dont no who “them” is that you are referring to. Only mentioned one guys name in the story that I read.

    Thanks Dan O..

    I agree Mitchell. Nothing about this man’s crimminal history was automatic.

    It required years of hard work and focus on Mr Bonner’s part to build this record.

    Allow me, 429SCJ…

    You’re right, Mitchell, just casually strolling around this neighborhood doesn’t make him a criminal, his rapsheet does…

Just because this area of town may not be your perfect neighbor hood dosent automaticly make this man a criminal.

    At it hard at 5:30 AM, on a Sunday.

    No one can accuse them of laziness.
