Oscar Ponce on the run from police

Ponce is street savy. His butt is heading straight for the border right now to get out. Talk about salmon swimming upstream. While everyone is trying to get into this country, Ponce is trying to go the other to get out. I give him a 50-50 chance of making it.

He was not an illegal, he was born in the US, lived in Mexico until he was 14, and then moved back. He was a US citizen from birth.

Colorado is a great place to hide. The Dougherty gang managed to go from shooting at police in Florida and robbing a bank in the southeast USA to then hiding in Colorado, before they were caught in Canon City/Walsenburg/Pueblo, Colorado area.

Hopefully Oscar turns himself in and gets a really good lawyer. I don't know the circumstances but if he thinks he's f'ed then maybe he is indeed headed for Mexico? no idea

Nike must hate that branding on Ponce... I swear I saw him running yesterday in San Luis Potosi.

cool - what do you think his average pace per mile is?

I remember when I lived in Oregon Oscar had a beautiful girlfriend that I had heard he was later married to. (She ran at the U of O at the time) Anyone know if Oscar is still married??

One of the articles said they filed for divorce in September

no doubt brother.

Catholic churches are different because they were actively covering for pedophile priests. Most priests aren't pedophiles, but it doesn't say much for the church when it shields abusers from justice.

Unlike a school, where no one would ever sweep accusations against a coach or a teacher under the rug?

The Catholic Church is a worldwide organization, and it was involved in these kinds of cover-ups in numerous different countries. That makes it a worldwide conspiracy to systematically protect and enable (by moving them quietly to new dioceses) sexual child abusers. It goes way beyond what any school, any state, any national organization, or any government could do, and it operated both outside the law--in the realm of the religious establishment--and at the very height of the organization in--so that you have the man many take to be God's representative on earth not doing enough to fix it. That said, I'm not sure how the Penn State scandal should mitigate the Catholic priest scandal in any way, which is what I take to be implied by you responding to a description of Catholicism by comparing it to "a school." The fact that school's screw up doesn't mean that the Catholic Church is any the less systematically infused with the evil of the sex abuse cases, which will taint everything else they do until they really address it.

I don't blame you. I personally would like to deal with hs school kids. Usually they are disrespectful and have no discipline. The girls are very arrogant and like to behave like little sluts.

Why would you like to deal with hs kids if you think they are disrespectful, have no discipline and the girls are arrogant and behave like little sluts. Wouldn't you want to stay away from them?

"Birth of convenience"

What a tragic story and flawed human being.

You're a moron. What has his immigration status got to do with any of this ? He's as American as anyone else, remember this country was founded by immigrants, in fact unless your name is something along the lines of Chief Sitting Bull, you're an immigrant.

This country was founded by white Christians pushing out pagan Sitting Bull, not some fake "immigrant" that could be anybody which you'd have us identify with today.

Proof that America is falling behind in the education system. Congrats America, we only teach from 1945 to the present.

has Oscar been caught yet?

These are probably over 100,000 adults who work with kids, 99.9% them would never do any thing inappropriate. Don't allow the few to take away from the good work of the many.

Am I not understanding the whole is he American debate. He has only lived in the United States or Mexico...Both are American countries. So how is he not American?
