Jokes aside this poor young man is facing trial for something he obviously did not do.

I'm a pacifist myself, wouldn't intentionally hurt an amoeba, but guilty or innocent Luigi deserves our support.

I mean at this point im hoping to get to end of life without something like that but not so sure how I would feel if younger. I mean its really just direct vs adjacent given I pay taxes and buy stuff and work places.

How can you tell he didn't do it?

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 4 points 3 hours ago

Oh all sorts of people have posted seeming him no where near it and the video footage does not look anything like him. 100% innocent and I think he might have a wrongful arrest suite.

I don’t want anyone to actually die… but I hope rich people being afraid of being shot at really sends the message home about gun violence so that we can get some assault weapons band or something

Assault weapons band..... Do they specialize in the 1812 Overture?

Those CEO's are plenty fine with you dying. I'll pip champagne the next time a CEO gets whacked

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Im pretty ok with many folks dying myself. Lots of folks die every day but they are by and large not the right ones.

Unfortunately violence of that nature has a tendency to cause actions that make life harder in the poor and lower classes. Especially minorities. If we go around whacking CEOs it will be all the excuse Trump needs to turn us into a complete Police State. Which he might do anyway.

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

regardless though those ceo's are making decisions that make life harder in the poor and lower classes. Heck even the working and middle classes. Heck the upper middle, lower upper. Even makes life worse for the wealthiest of wealthiest but they are too stupid to realize it in many cases (some actually do recognize it and have done things like call for more taxes and regulation). So the harder life is happening regardless and as you said the turning into a police state can happen with and without it.

True enough.
