I thought we had “innocent until proven guilty”. But instead we have a convicted felon for president who’s a pedophile friend, and a guy named Luigi Mangione in jail while we don’t even know who really did it.
When asked if people would rather have some innocent people get jailed, or some guilty people set free (in court).
The majority said they’d rather have some innocent people get jailed. Which to me seems like the worst of both worlds. An innocent person behind bars. And the real criminal is free.
I don’t have a source. Something I remember seeing maybe 10 years ago but it stuck with me. Feel free to ask those you know the question, see what they answer.
“Excuse me officer, I believe I might be hiding a concealed weapon, I think you need to frisk me.”
Jeez…I know ACAB, but in this case, I’ll allow myself to be stopped and frisked all day long.
I’m not entirely sure all cops are anti-Luigi. I work at a health insurance company and it’s sort of an open secret there is a sizable number of us on his side.
Healthcare is complicated. Private health care does not solve a single goddamn problem. But there are degrees to how bad it has to be and fuck if United didn’t go out of their way to make it worse.
I was afraid to upvote and get banned, but then I remembered that I’m not on Reddit ;)
Live, Love, Luigi
Ew… dont be so weak… So, by your admission, your own principles aren’t strong enough to hold up against the potential of “being banned”.
Truly weak… fuckem, and fick getting banned, ill say what I want declaring truth as I know it.
Such dystopian attitudes.
Obvious troll is obvious.
Acquit him already!
If they can acquit OJ Simpson, they can acquit Luigi Mangione.
what a fucking chad
That officer is a named character. Her importance will be revealed during the big twist of this arc.
I hope he gets off cos I’m about to 😩
His trial is still ongoing but you’re guilty and going to horny jail
lmao
He’s thinking about the millions of lives he improved.
About that. The CEO he shot was actually in hot water with Blackrock, who were functionally his bosses, for not doing enough to screw over people. Blackrock owns many insurance companies. So that was like 1% progress on solving a problem. Until you get your IRA/401k divested from Blackrock and stop shopping at Blackrock owned companies (good luck), you can shoot all the CEOs you want. Blackrock will still instruct their employee to screw you over.
Luigi is innocent! Right now they’re still only alleging* that he shot someone. Quit assuming he’s guilty until it’s been proven.
He also shielded the actual guy who shot Thompson. I hope the actual assassin lived a long, comfortable, and quiet life.
Lived? It was like a year ago, can’t have been much of a long life.
If that past tense is accurate, then it’s a no for long.
Sorry, it was a typo. It is present tense now. Maybe in 2080 it might be lived…
Allegedly. Idk how he could have done it without any of our 180 friends we’ve been hanging out with noticing.
181
Everyone’s favorite conservative rich kid that only did something when he was personally affected.
He didn’t even have a United health care policy
Well he, allegedly, did a good thing.
Considering there has been no consequence, he just murdered a dude.
At least he did something other than virtue signaling online
He didn’t do jack shit. Nothing has changed. There has been no wave of CEO assassinations.
I don’t think that’s true. I made the prediction, after that healthcare CEO got shot, that Stochastic Political Assassinations would be the hip new thing, and I think this past year has proven me right.
Charlie Kirk, multiple Trump attempts, the Pennsylvania Governor’s mansion got firebombed.
Those legislators in Minnesota getting assassinated
Some smaller CEOs had attempts on their lives also, Like the Michigan company president who got stabbed
So, no more healthcare CEOs didn’t get got, but people across the political spectrum have.
Mangione might be the richest person Lemmy loves.
It’s either him or Taylor Swift.
He’s also a Musk fanboy and rails about the “woke mind virus”.
Which is interesting, if Luigi is conservative, does he oppose universal healthcare?
I dont care what his political beliefs are, hes a comrade of mine.
You’re on the wrong website buddy.
Why did you stop at Musk. Why not Hitler?
any citations for that? or…?
He violently opposes getting screwed over by somebody. You know, like, I don’t know… somebody in the mafia might.
We get it, no one is pure enough for you.
My ancestors are smiling at me, imperials, can you say the same?
What’s this from?
Skyrim
The place or the game?
You’re never gonna believe this…
Yes

Someone should run for the governor of NY on a platform of offering Mangione a full pardon.
They would win in a landslide.
Mamdani won already, but Mamdani needs to also just pardon Luigi as a gesture of fuck you to private insurance.
Mamdani won the mayoral election. Kathy Hochul is the governor.
He’s a mayor. Mayors can’t do that.
Then I stand corrected. But if and when (and I am really hoping here) Luigi goes free I want Mamdani to at least shake his hand.
yeah because we don’t have enough islamophobia
I think we should make owning the conservative fascists a point. They have always been accusing anyone opposed to them of doing this shit even if we didn’t. Why not give them a well earned fuck you?
there are people who can afford to do it and people who cannot. minorities know this very well. mamdani represents multiple minorities whether he wants to or not. he cannot do this.
That isn’t how government works.
How does government work ?
What makes you think a mayor can pardon state level charges?
Nothing in particular. Note that I am not the person you replied to originally. I found that your message did not offer an alternative after shutting off the presumption (that Mamdani had that kind of power), so I am encouraging you to suggest one
If government ‘worked’ then nothing Trump has done would have been done. It turns out you can just do stuff.
That’s not how this works. A mayor can’t pardon someone for state crimes.
He should run then call the trial a political which hunt
I somehow doubt that. I understand people think the healthcare companies were shite, but most people don’t believe vigilante murder is fine
When justice no longer serves the people, the people must serve justice.
