Sign of Our Times: Deaf Man Stabbed After Alleged Gang Members Mistake Sign Language For Gang Signs

This charming couple is Barbara Lee, 45, and Marco Ibanez, 19. They are accused of killing Alfred Stewart, 31, (shown below) and attacking his friends after Lee mistook their sign language for gang signs. Stewart and his friends are deaf and now he is dead.

Stewart was having drinks with his friends at Ocean’s Eleven Lounge in Hallendale Beach, Florida when Lee saw them exchanging signs. Lee is allegedly a member of a gang and left to bring back Ibanez and a 17-year-old alleged gang member. Ibanez stabbed Stewart and his friends.

All three alleged gang members are charged with aggravated battery.

The gang problem in the country is reaching a crisis point. We have MS-13 in our area of Northern Virginia and new ruthless Mexican gangs have taken hold along the border. We have a growing war in this country as Obama and Congress continue to look for wars like Libya to spend lives and treasure abroad.
