So riddle me this. Inner City, poor area, 2:00 a.m.
One gang member approaches another rival gang member, pulls out an illegally modified full auto pistol, dumps an entire 30 round magazine into him.
Does he get the death penalty?

[–] KillerTofu@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Haha no. See they are both poor and we would rather have prison cattle than true justice.

Fuck you, Pam Bondi.

Oh just like how the American private health insurer confidence scheme seeks the death penalty when their ~~customers~~ marks actually need life saving healthcare and become a threat to the capitalist's quarterly metastasis expectations.

Neat.

Called it weeks ago. He'll be long dead before then though. Almost certainly due to a prison shank. Mmw.

[–] tpihkal@lemmy.world 26 points 2 days ago

I think it's more likely that he'll hang himself, but I guess there's a chance that he'll stab himself dozens of times in the neck and chest.

[–] fox2263@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago

I think everyone in prison likes him actually 😂

[–] slappypantsgo@lemm.ee 22 points 1 day ago

Protect him at all costs!

Higher burden of proof on a case that already has improperly collected evidence? Sure thing, go ahead and virtue signal to the right that you're still the party of law and order. The billionaires should still be scared after reading this.

For a second I was going to say it's like they're trying to make us hate them more somehow. Then I realized, yeah, that's probably exactly what they're trying to do. Antagonizing people into violence is the goal.

I'm not sure if it's to use it as an excuse to declare martial law, or kick off a civil war, or both? Idk I guess I've just been around enough passive aggressive pieces of shit in the past to recognize it when I see it.

This you shall offer in the morning and this you shall offer in the evening, one lamb without blemish.

[–] Fandangalo@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

I personally find the Leviticus 16:10 scapegoat quote to be more appropriate:

Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for the Lord and offer it as a purification offering, but the goat on which the lot fell for Azazel shall be presented alive before the Lord to make atonement over it, that it may be sent away into the wilderness to Azazel.

I'm sure this kind of thing is what occupies the broligarchs' brains at least 90% of the time...

Reminder: New York doesn't have a Death Penalty on the books

There is no getting out of this fascist hellhole without mass protest, but if the ruling class wants to turn that into riots against the rich, ok then.

[–] Goldholz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So they want to create another merteur. Okay. Lets see how that will turn out
