    Mayorkas said […] that he’s “alarmed” by the “heroism that is being attributed to an alleged murderer of a father of two children on the streets in New York City,”

    Luigi is a hero. Brian Thompson got what he deserved, and his children are better off without him.

    he noted that “that’s the actions of an individual, not reflective of the American public and of the democracy in which we live.”

    I guess we’ll just need some more examples. Seems to be comming back into fashion.

      Not reflective? Then why the fuck are you so concerned?

      Imagine what life lessons his children learned from him.

      his children are better off without him.

      That’s certainly not true. You don’t have to dehumanize someone you see as your enemy.

      I recently watched 1917, and ::: spoiler spoilers I’m proud of the way the plane was handled. One can see the necessity of war without dehumanizing the other side. :::

      I’m sorry for his kids. I’m sorry for his family. I can continue to hope for a better way.

      We’ve been through this history enough times. I, for one, would rather not repeat it. If this is the way things are gonna go, it’s going to get a hell of a lot worse before it gets better.

        It depends. It appears he wasn’t really in the picture and has a history of being a piece of shit. Who’s to say that his kids aren’t better off without him, and honestly, probably heavily enriched by his demise?

        Losing a father isn’t always a bad thing.

        Dude had no qualms about dehumanizing the people he stole money from and didn’t give life saving treatment to. Just because he could do it from the cover of corporate mandates doesn’t make it any less evil.

        That’s certainly not true.

        That’s certainly not something you can determine with the knowledge we have. Many children are, or would be, better off without their shitbag parent. God knows I would have been.

          It’s pretty horrible to say, either way.

            then don’t comment on it, just sit silently in your home and be appalled, you’re just validating your own morality to no ones benefit.
