The death penalty is outlawed in New York, isn’t it? Not that he can’t have an “accident” or some shit in prison.

He won't make it to trial. He'll get the Epstein treatment.

This is because the Government with Republicans and Neo Liberals are about business interests over the American people. People need to just start sharing their denials from United healthcare every time they right a piece how Luigi is evil. So tired of this bullshit. And here is another thought pro lifers need to start protesting for universal healthcare to be consistent.

These charges are being brought up in a state controlled by Democrats.

They'll make it illegal to share "sensitive information" like healthcare insurance denials, and they'll punish you for releasing your own sensitive information.

And then they'll go after anyone reposting it for violating your rights, they'll charge them on your behalf regardless of whether you protest that you don't want to charge them.

They'll violate you in weird ways.

Unfortunately, the people doing it are the media It's a quintessential "man bites dog" story. Normally it's the insurance companies killing civilians. Everyone is going to cover it. The police had a manhunt because it would look ridiculous if they didn't solve such a high-profile case.

It's kind of a symbiotic relationship, the media covers it, the police react harshly, the media covers it more.

As a person who grew up in American schools post-Columbine, with kids in schools now, and none of us are CEOs, this is probably the take that saddens me most about this whole event. It’s our kids, and the argument used to be about freedom. Soon, we won’t even have that. What was the fucking point? (Rhetorical: profit)

I know we’re all alive at a special time in humanity. We think we’re so civilized. Then I look around, and it’s the same history playing on repeat. When do the monkeys figure out it’s one species? (Rhetorical again: 😬)

On the plus side, maybe this will actually result in some kind of reasonable gun legislation that will trickle down to a reduction of general gun violence. Maybe. Hopefully. Sometimes all it takes is showing the leopard party that their faces are also in danger.

Soon only CEOs will be allowed to carry guns?
