I think Luigi needs to do more speaking out. He needs to run for office once he's acquitted.

If there's any sign of that happening, they'll definitely kill him

He has already shown he would die for our rights. If he would be good with it i would still vote for him.

He should run for president then immediately claim immunity based on the courts trump rulings.

Is there a law against running for office while imprisoned?

Missing something here. How are the feds prosecuting for murder when murder has always been a state charge? In any case, is this not double jeopardy?

[-] sik0fewl@lemmy.ca 35 points 1 year ago

I think because he fled across state lines. It seems like a stretch to me, but I am not a lawyer.

Not that much of a stretch. Since a state may refuse to arrest someone who committed a crime in a different state if they are sympathetic to said crime (especially a concern when USA was split between slavery and anti-slavery states), the feds can have jurisdiction in these cases, since otherwise it may involve a dispute between states. It makes at least some sense...

If you want to see a real stretch (aka completely made up bullshit), look up how feds justify growing marihuana for your own consumption (not sale) somehow involves interstate commerce.

Double jeopardy does not apply to facing federal and state charges under the dual sovereign doctrine. It does not really make sense, but that's the law.

It is banned in most countries. Poor man had to be in America.

Would he have had casus belli in a civilized nation?

[-] Huschke@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Certainly not.

Just like Walter White would have had no reason to sell drugs because he would have gotten his cancer treatment for free.

America really is just that country.

I look forward to the day we hopefully get to where that show just confuses younger generations because no civilized society would have allowed those circumstances to exist in the first place

[-] bluemite@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Has nobody told him the constitution doesn't matter anymore?

[-] Hudell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

Why's he doing the zoolander face though?
