The prison system needs to be reformed. He deserves time, not a stabbing. If you praise this, you're a shit-tier human being. That is all.
- The prison system needs to be reformed / abolished. Chauvin wouldn't have been in a position of power to kill Floyd if we didn't revere carceral punishment in this country.
- There's nothing wrong with the people who are happy about this. They've been taught that this is justice. They want justice and frankly they still haven't seen it; Chauvin's punishment is like taking a single drop out of an ocean of police atrocities. We should destroy the prison system, but let's not destroy each other in the process.
I was pretty damn happy when Osama Bin Laden was killed and this stabbing doesn't bother me much at all.
Interestingly, I'm the opposite. I have a hard time celebrating death, but since Chauvin lived I'm not much upset about it. Yeah, it's because our prison system sucks and it shouldn't have happened, but he spent his life in service of that shitty system so it's got a nice ironic vibe to it.
Weird considering Laden was just a good peice of propaganda for AQ and more a figurehead than a real leader. Iirc, he was a rich guy they used as a way to lure normal people into joining - 'this wealthy aristocrat gives up luxury to resist, you can too'.
Agreed but I'm not going to be sad for him. I'm sad for the unjustly jailed ppl that have to go through that.
When I was a teenager, I sat down and wrote out a list of rules for myself. One of which was "Act as would choose to when lying in bed later that night." Meaning, don't do something you'll regret a few hours from now.
I didn't feel the need to write that as "Don't do anything that'll get you shivved by a fellow inmate."
And apparently neither did Chauvin.
It's one of those fundamental rules in life. Don't piss off the person making your food. Don't piss off the person doing work in your house with power tools. Don't piss off the doctor right before a surgery.
I'd say he deserves to have someone kneel on his neck for 9 minutes or so, not a stabbing
You're right, he doesn't deserve to be stabbed, he deserves to be choked out until he passes out.
Oh you're the authority on shit-tier people, eh? Yeah I believe that.
keeping people in cages is wrong. I think the stabby-stab is justice, here, and we can stop paying for his room and board and 24hour babysitting staff.
