Sure seems like it does.
It did for a brief while there. The tides are clearly turning.
Talk to me when he's rotting in jail.
Justice is persistent, not swift.
For example.
Justice is absent.
Found this for you:
I repeat, justice is not swift. It is persistent.
Get your unsubstantiated propaganda the fuck outta here.
Being a doomer helps only the fascists.
Quit running their propaganda for them.
Not a "doomer", just a realist, and I disagree. People need to stop being complacent.
You're absolutely a doomer.
You can deny the label all you want, but we can all see you plainly out here telling us all that there is no justice and there is no hope. You are by definition, a doomer. Sucks to suck. The evidence is literally in this comment thread. Ain't no disowning it.
Your exact message is a message fascists WANT DESPERATELY for you to echo. And they thank you dearly for your service to their cause.
Tagged as loser doomer fascist lover.
Saying shit like you are only breeds complacency. You get that right?
...no? Obviously not.
It is indeed clear you don't understand.
I understand completely. You Im not so sure about.
Your example is A) German police investigating a suspected concentration camp guard, and B) only an investigation. It's an example of the German police being persistent, full points there. But even then it is not justice. It is only an investigation. Do you have an example of American justice, and I mean actual justice, like an ICE agent actually being sentenced and sent to jail for their violent crimes?
How many people have been murdered by out of control ICE agents? How many ICE agents are in jail for their crimes? It has been almost ten months since Renee Good was murdered on January 7th by an ICE agent. A crime recorded on video. Where is her murderer, Jonathan Ross? No one knows for sure because ICE is hiding him, but according to then New York Governor Hochul, he was given a 3-day suspension and then reinstated in New York.
What about Alex Pretti's ICE agent murderer? A crime also committed on video. Alex was also murdered January of this year. Your guess about his location is as good as mine because Homeland Security has kept even his identity secret. You can bet he is still on the job for ICE and has been steadily violating people's rights the whole time.
At this point in history, the tragic truth is that American justice is neither persistent nor swift.
Brother.
Here.
I repeat: justice is not swift. It is persistent.
Only if the ice man is Latino.
