Cat shot 15 times 'in cold blood' is lucky to be alive.

He said it is ironic that visitors who were sleeping in adjustment rooms did not hear any commotion (náo động, om sòm; rung chuyển, chấn động; rối loạn, cuộc bạo động) as their hosts were killed in cold blood.

Think about it — judges in this state already refuse to jail illegal immigrant Dominican heroin dealers on welfare caught red-handed peddling poison. It’s not PC.
