Scumbags

Criminals are jerks.

They break laws. They do harm. But some are more despicable than others.

The two scumbags who assaulted an 86-year-old Racine woman are among the lowest of the criminal lowlifes.

RACINE -- Racine police say two male suspects entered an 86-year-old woman’s assisted living center apartment Sunday, assaulted and bound her, and ransacked her home.

...Police say the suspects may have gained entry to the woman’s apartment through an unlocked door.

They then assaulted her and bound her, and ransacked her apartment, taking a 2 ¼ carat gold band ring, credit card, check book and possibly other items.

The woman was eventually able to free herself and call police.

...Police describe the victims as being of Hispanic descent and speaking broken English. One of the suspects apparently talked about going back to Puerto Rico.

Two men taking on an 86-year-old woman -- What tough guys!

The suspects are Hispanic. Will there be allegations of racial profiling, like those made by Phoenix talk radio station KNUV 1190 AM when police used the term "Hispanic" to describe a suspect?

They would be baseless. A description is a description.

I wonder. Are these scumbags in the country legally?

It's a fair question.

If one or both are ILLEGAL immigrants, you have to admit that they give ILLEGAL immigrants a very bad name.
