@bundycamp some times anger/ emotions are what opens your heart ,eyes to what is really happening. Some times this is where change comes from. And some times unity. Emotions are given to us to as tools in this life to know ,learn correct or incorrect behavior.
@@patgollin9131 one hold out that managed to sway 11 others. They should all be ashamed for not standing firm. The families deserved it, 11 people worried about getting back to their everyday life while all these families and children will never be able to return to normal. Shameful
Words can't express how much pain I feel for these poor families. I echo the the thoughts of so many that have already said that this is not justice. If there ever was a case for the death penalty this is it. There is no factor that should out weigh the heinous nature of these crimes. None. This man's point that many people have hard times growing up and still do not chose to take out their internal anger on others should stand out to all. If a mother smoking cigarettes and using drugs and alcohol while pregnant causes you to want to murder people then there would be countless mass shooting all the time. It was used as a convient excuse and that to me is disgusting. My heart goes out to the families, relatives, friends and the entire Parkland community in general.
Being subjected to cigarettes, drugs and alcohol in a womb does do damage. Nikolas had problems with verbalising his feelings, he could not put his feelings into words, that causes him to bottle emotion, that bottled emotion boiled over when his mother died, he didn't know how to deal with that emotion. He had been expelled from school, so many negative situations happened to Nik in the year before the shooting. It becomes a Fight or Flight situation. Nik chose to Fight it, notice how he places the weapon down and walks out. The problem in his emotional being had been sorted. The big problem with this case is that the FBI knew of his intentions 2 days before the shooting and did nothing. Why are firearm licences being given to mentally challenged individuals, so many failings by psychologists, Social care and the Broward County Police Department, why should Nik pay for their failings?
@@gordonosborn3251 Nobody cares about the shooter's problems once they decide to hurt other people. He might be troubled, but he isn't beyond the capability of knowing that he was about to do something wrong. You are right that attention needs to be paid to the failings of the rest of the system around him, but that doesn't free him from responsibility, they are separate issues that can all be dealt with individually.
Exactly. My brother and I had a hard childhood, he has ADHD, and we never even thought to murder innocent children because of it. He had every opportunity my brother and I never had the privilege of having... this verdict is adding insult to injury.
But that's quite naive to say because your situation would have been different to his and outcomes would have been different. We all deal with mental health conditions different and people react differently. Whilst there's no excusing his behaviour, without doubt he suffered a very traumatic upbringing which I believe massively contributed to this. It made him what he is. Not everyone has the mental ability to get past certain hurdles.
my blood boils to. as a minister i can tell all of you he shall pay an eternity in hell ! there will be no end to this monsters extream penilty every second for eternity... all we got is the death penalty or life in prison i tell you the truth Gods revenge is final hell awaits this monster. time is erelivent it shall be done and last an eternity
Why did that jury make a monster like that out to be a victim? Now the victims didn’t get justice… how gross. The juror or jurors that didn’t want the death penalty should be called out and investigated

I really love how this father didn’t say the shooters name. He doesn’t deserve the attention, this father made sure the victims were mentioned and how they were truly victims. Very impactful.
I agree with you 100% Father of Parkland school shooting. I feel your pain and offer my condolences to you and your family for the loss of your daughter, Gina. Cruz will sit in prison at the taxpayer's expense, no something is drastically wrong with this picture...as I watched the verdict given today, it saddened me greatly. Our country is "accommodating" these criminals as though the right punishment can't be given to them for the horrific crimes they committed. Yes, this puts every school child in the USA at risk for this to happen again. He murdered 17 children/faculty and should have been given his just rewards.
3:36 "....not as an act of revenge but to protect our nation's schools." If this case doesnt warrant the DP then what does? One juror robbed these people of closure. Heartbreaking to hear these reactions.
They aren't going to get any closure from the criminal justice system either way, it's wishful thinking to believe any outcome would even move the needle on the way they feel after losing a child.
@@renaeballandis9755 Political or personal opinion DOES NOT MATTER when you agree to be on a case for a potential death penalty. You literally have to agree to make only objective decisions based on the law and whatever is presented in the trial or else you can be charged with perjury. Like he described in the video this crime exceeds the full extent of the law, which is when the death penalty should be considered.
You are literally encouraging murder and mob justice. Disgusting.. You are part of the problem, and no better than Cruz. You think you can kill when you are unhappy with something... You have Cruz's mentality..
That juror thought they were saving a life by forcing the parents to pay the years of tax money that will clothe, feed, and house him, and maybe he'll even get to read a few books and learn how to speak a new language in prison. Just in case some of you didnt understand.
I don't care what your view is on the death penalty. Far too many mass murderers in recent years have been let off the hook. This egregious act of injustice only sets the tone that we as a society won't condemn those who commit such atrocities. This is a dangerous precedent. I hope that the jury member who voted against the death penalty never get an ounce of peaceful sleep ever again.
I am a firm believer in the death penalty in pre-meditated murders. Once a person chooses to takes the life of another, they forfeit the right to a life for themselves. He does not deserve to breath the same air as these victim's loved ones.
Praying for this man and all the families who are affected. There is unfortunately nothing a man or woman of the jury or law enforcement can do that will assist in this loss. Peace can be found for each of them but the injustice and pain is now a part of each of them. 12 years it's been since my children were murdered and hearing a sentencing of death. Doesn't bring a reprieve or closure. I urge each of you to remember the families affect. Too many times we read about people's outrage and see them all slowly forget
This gentleman is a fighter.. I feel really sorry about his situation. He truly understands that Nikolas Cruz should have never been given any slack in this case.. he understands that the killer deserved nothing else than to die for what he did. This decision only sends a message to other killer wannabes that they will not be killed. It was a terrible decision from the jury. I feel that they failed these parents, and the jury also failed society in general because when the next shooting happens, what families are those going to be? Terrible!!!
I have tremendous empathy and compassion for the families of the victims, as well as the victims themselves. I'm torn regarding the death penalty for the reason that post execution interviews of family members of victims show that watching the person who did great a injustice to them be executed does not bring the longed for closure and relief. That being said, these parents and families have suffered greatly. If a death penalty verdict would have given them peace then I'm sorry that they didn't receive the justice they were hoping for.

@@flbeblue1423 it was 11-1 initially, after a night to sleep on it, 2 others agreed with her. Now all aspiring school shooters can be assured they can kill, and still live. I doubt he will live a long life in prison, and I'm sure his end won't be without suffering, as the death penalty would have.
I wonder if there's some arcane law in Florida that would allow the prosecution to file for a motion to dismiss the juries decision? If one even exists.
I just want to say that this man is very eloquent speaker in the midst of circumstances so awful. I don’t know if I believe in the death penalty or not, but I would never be able to look the families in the face after this. I would struggle with the decision but I’d try to bring some peace to these destroyed families. I don’t think I could agree with the prosecution on everything and then spare the murder. I can’t stop thinking about these kids and the way they were hunted and slaughtered. It’s just God awful.
This father was absolutely right about one message indeed: people had tough times growing up; school systems failed on them; they were on the virtue to try and make up for a bad situation. But absolutely right about not going into a school with a gun to shoot innocent lives and to have make wrong decisions for all the wrong reasons!
My heart breaks for all of these families. Nothing hurts worse than losing a child. My brother lost his daughter, my niece and his pain is as bad now years later as the first day . The teachers and children should have felt some sort of justice. I was shocked he didn't get the death penalty. Why does it exist if not for times like this to stop future school shootings?
He is absolutely right and I feel for him and all of the families who have been impacted by this. I would like to know in what case that one juror would accept the death penalty, if not for premeditated mass murder of children. That juror absolutely committed perjury.
How about the shooter… at times, appeared to be doing all he could to hide the joy and happiness he was feeling that they did not come back with the deaths penalty. It was disgusting😢 I cried watching today and his face!!! I want to know … what was written on the notes passed to him from his lawyers… Don’t draw pictures now … don’t act to happy… try to look sad … and the list goes on…
I'm so very sorry to all of the families, and friends that lost loved ones. You are right sir, not everyone was a victim. Those that were murdered, and the families are victims. Not a single person deserved to go through the events of that horrible day.
My heart goes out to each of the victim’s families there today, such an injustice in the verdict by the jurors. What can warrant the death penalty, if this monster, Cruz, did not get it?
Don't blame the whole judicial system or the jury for the actions of one single, evil juror. Those other jurors should hate this person. makes them all look bad.
Oh Father God in Jesus Christ name; comfort this dad and his family please. I am so sorry for your loss and disappointment; prayers up for this man, his family, and all that lost a loved one from that horrible incident.

My heart breaks after watching family after family wanting one thing and getting another......I feel like in cases like these, they should verify the parents and kids that are still alive that went through this, as well as families that lost their loved ones should get sent a ballot and they cast a vote Life/ death and then the judge tallys them up and whatever THEY vote for, is what the guilty gets. I hope they are able to find some sort of healthy way to live day after day. So many lives changed for generations ...
Why can't the family members make up the jury? They are the ones that lost their children.Why can't they sit in judgement of the freek that killed them. Strangers who have lost nothing and should have nothing to with this.
Obviously an activist masquerading as a juror robbed these families of justice under Florida law. And they should face consequences for their masquerade…
I can’t believe this outcome. What will it take for someone to get the death penalty? What, do you need to kill 20 people, like that punk killers plan was, to qualify for the death penalty? I’m so sorry to all the parents who suffered through this, and got no justice.

May this be the start of the biggest fight for every single youths safety in the future. I completely agree with this father
This man is one of the greatest fathers on Earth.
I'm so very sorry to all of the families, and friends that lost loved ones. You are right sir, not everyone was a victim. Those that were murdered, and the families are victims. Not a single person deserved to go through the events of that horrible day.
How much has changed since this happened? Many hearts are with you.
This father and max will handle some business in the future. Everything they say is 100% correct
This is sad our society is done gone now letting criminals out bad schools teaching kids bad things now this is sad.
what a sad day today, this totally breaks my heart, Justice was not served today , my condolences for all the Victims of this monster
Sir, we are with you
Keep fighting
I’ll subscribe to any website you set up
❤️🙏
My heart goes out to each of the victim’s families there today, such an injustice in the verdict by the jurors. What can warrant the death penalty, if this monster, Cruz, did not get it?
He is absolute right. The juror is guilty of perjury and should be held accountable.
Don't blame the whole judicial system or the jury for the actions of one single, evil juror. Those other jurors should hate this person. makes them all look bad.
This father is heart broken I feel bad for his daughter being killed
This man told no lies. 👍
Oh Father God in Jesus Christ name; comfort this dad and his family please.
I am so sorry for your loss and disappointment; prayers up for this man, his family, and all that lost a loved one from that horrible incident.

The only answer is in the Word of God...
God bless you. God bless you. God bless you and keep you and comfort you, sir! I agonize for you and your family. Words are inadequate. Comfort and strength and some kind of happiness to you.
100 percent agree! Prayers for these families
so sad its heartbreaking
My heart breaks after watching family after family wanting one thing and getting another......I feel like in cases like these, they should verify the parents and kids that are still alive that went through this, as well as families that lost their loved ones should get sent a ballot and they cast a vote Life/ death and then the judge tallys them up and whatever THEY vote for, is what the guilty gets.
I hope they are able to find some sort of healthy way to live day after day. So many lives changed for generations ...
God wrap your arms around these families
The juror is guilty of perjury and should be held accountable. Our justice system is broken.
Heartbreaking 💔. 🙏
If you do not believe in the death penalty then you should not ever be put on a jury that is dealing with a killer.
Why can't the family members make up the jury? They are the ones that lost their children.Why can't they sit in judgement of the freek that killed them. Strangers who have lost nothing and should have nothing to with this.
u can tell this guys daughter is so proud of her papa
I breakdown when I see this man's love and devotion to his lovely daughter.
Such a sad day for all the families. So unfair😪🙏🙏🙏
Shame on that 1 juror who opposed death penalty
We have all been watching this trial for 3 months. The loved ones of this unremorseful murderer gets life instead of the death penalty. Unreal😡
Obviously an activist masquerading as a juror robbed these families of justice under Florida law. And they should face consequences for their masquerade…
Failing to maintain total impartiality while serving as a juror should be a felony.
Agreed
Heartbroken for these families. This could happen to any of us, next one is watching. Wrong message for sure.
I can’t believe this outcome. What will it take for someone to get the death penalty? What, do you need to kill 20 people, like that punk killers plan was, to qualify for the death penalty? I’m so sorry to all the parents who suffered through this, and got no justice.
Even a single juror threatened = tainted verdict
Justice , failed when Cruz , failed to get the death penalty !! If the death penalty was ever justified !!! This case is the example !!! MY heart crys for all these families !!! 👪
There is a horrific pattern of Injustice in this country and we just don't get it.
Oh my God, my heart💔💔💔💔
He had every right to be as mad as he was
this man has said alot for the people of this country.. this is truly the end for this country
