Fades , in Chrystul Kizer jailed for 11 years for killing her abuser

That poor girl, this world is so disgustingly unfair.

Now with that said, it is not your place to obtain whatever you may think is “justice”. We have no need or want for vigilantism, all that creates is more opportunities for mistakes to happen and innocents hurt.

Yes it is your place. If the law doesn’t account for that and unjustly puts you behind bars, the problem is with the law.

This case is an easy one. The problem is folks seeking justice for slights that aren’t so heinous and the whole drawing the line thing.

I’m totally on board with her killing the dude, if I was on the jury I’d have ignored the charge from the judge 100%. There should be a “what you did is illegal and you are guilty, but no jail for you” kinda deal.

LordGimp ,

You are talking about jury nullification.

The problem of there being no justice to seek for would be worse. And attractiveness of using legal systems is in them being actually useful for victims.

Was it vigilantism? Did you read up on the case? Do you ever stop to think, why is it so easy for these fuckers to sex traffic girls? How they typically manage to get away with it for so long, against so many different women? You know, it’s ALMOST like the system is set up to make it easier for them to commit the crime than it is for the girls to find a safe way out. Weird, huh?

Fades , in RFK Jr. Running Mate Reveals They’re Considering Dropping Out to ‘Join Forces’ With Trump and Block Harris

No shit, he literally went to Trump and then Kamala with an offer to “give me a job and I’ll drop out and endorse you”, both of which said no. This is so pathetic and embarrassing for him and for the entire nation.

bender223 , in ‘Evangelicals For Harris’ Drops Brutal Ad Questioning If Trump is a ‘False Prophet’

Ooh, can’t wait for MAGA for Harris 🤭

catloaf , in Army and police missed chances to intervene before Maine mass shootings, special commission report finds | PBS News

Yeah no shit, we knew that months ago when it came out that he’d been hospitalized and people reported him for being unstable. Turns out all the gun control laws in the world won’t help when the cops don’t do jack shit!

militaryintelligence , in Harley-Davidson drops DEI initiatives amid pressure from ‘anti-woke’ activists

If trump wins and fascism comes back, companies will be heiling. No surprise

marx2k , in Elon Musk’s Twitter Takeover Is Now the Worst Buyout for Banks Since the Financial Crisis

This is why I stick with credit unions.

bradorsomething , in Harris proposes raising the corporate tax rate to 28%, rolling back a Trump law

Boo, but I am a job creator!

Just kidding, my company should pay more taxes. We can already write off so much anyway.

Lets_Eat_Grandma ,

If only individuals could write off expenditures, only the rich would pay taxes.

JIMMERZ , in CEO of failing hospital chain got $250M amid patient deaths, layoffs, bankruptcy

The for-profit healthcare system is full of corporate greed and corruption.

aquinteros , in RFK Jr. Running Mate Reveals They’re Considering Dropping Out to ‘Join Forces’ With Trump and Block Harris

he will give trump all of his two votes ! oh no.

yesman , in 'Let's Go!' Top Economist Applauds as Harris Signals Support for Billionaires Tax

“Top Economist” is a funny phrase. Kinda like saying “leading soothsayer”.

Don’t think I don’t have sympathy or respect for the economist. I just notice that it’s the only academic discipline that pledges and is expected to predict the future.

Just like experts in criminal trials, economists can be selected to prove what you already know. And just like horoscopes, it’s all very convincing until you measure the predictions against reality.

LibreHans ,

the only academic discipline that pledges and is expected to predict the future

Huh? Ever heard of climate science?

hyperreal ,

I have a PhD in economics. Saying that the field “pledges” to be able to predict the future is pretty disingenuous. You’d be hard pressed to find any serious researcher in the field with that level of delusion.

VelvetStorm , in Derek Chauvin, ex-officer convicted of murdering George Floyd, moved to new prison after being stabbed

He committed murder he should be in a maximum security prison.

SendMePhotos ,

That’s anger talking. It doesn’t make sense for compliant, low risk inmates to be in maximum security prisons.

LordGimp ,

Nah nah nah. Guy needs super max for his own protection. In this day and age, officer safety is a real concern, even with disgraced former officers. Derek “Soft Derriere” Chauvin needs full 23 hour a day isolation interspersed with supervised private yard time. Anything less and I’m just petrified poor Derek won’t survive. Shame.

Burn_The_Right , in Donald Trump Falsely Claims Taylor Swift’s Endorsement with Garbage AI-Generated Posts

A lawsuit will not affect him. If he wins, he becomes a dictator. If he loses, he remains Teflon Don until he’s forced to flee to Russia.

If Taylor Swift wants justice, she needs to mobilize the Swifties.

bobs_monkey , in Texas sues GM for allegedly violating drivers' privacy

Paxton said GM’s data were used to compile “Driving Scores” assessing whether more than 1.8 million Texas drivers had “bad” habits such as speeding, braking too fast, steering too sharply into turns, not using seatbelts and driving late at night.

Fuck you for working the 2nd or 3rd shift, or having a social life

confused_code_monkey , in Elon Musk’s Twitter Takeover Is Now the Worst Buyout for Banks Since the Financial Crisis

“since the financial crisis” - You’ll have to be more specific than that 🥲
