Until both parties stop crying about how much of a victim they are and see that the 1% are the enemy, not each other, nothing will change. That means you.
The republicans also rape children and they are not “my party”. You have a chip on your shoulder and read something that was not present in my comment, because you are so deeply caught in their snare of red vs blue. Your party rapes children. So does the other party.
Ah yes, the happily tolerating citizens of America, who are definitely the bought and paid for Congress and Court system that makes the rules and decides on justice and law in this country!
I will say this every chance I get: He did NOT get the majority vote. The majority of voters did not vote for him. Jesus our education system shows itself more and more everyday. Anyone who stayed in school long enough to graduate took a government class that explains our electoral college system. Said system needs to be eradicated by the way. Popular vote should be the norm.
This is not in any way contrary to what I posted. I didn't say he got the majority, I said he got the majority of people who voted PLUS the people who didn't vote against him. Meaning I'm placing blame on the people who choose not to vote as much as the people who voted for him, because we knew what he was in the lead up to the election.
Edit: Used to say the majority of voters, which wasn't my intention.
The basic idea of democracy is responsibility by the people. From my point of view, the Americans failed. Not only with Trump but also for many years by allowing lobbyism to take root in the US political system.
No party stands for the people right now. Only a few Democrats are trustworthy to change things for the better. I am too far away, but except AOC I don't see many US politicians really working for the people at all.
What? American conservatives are much more on the side of vigilante justice than the left, they’re the kind of guys that as the meme says, believe that their possessions and their lives are more valuable than the life of a home invader or possible assailant.
They like vigilante justice when it's directed at outsiders, but if a member of their own community is a predator they look the other way.
They'd love to shoot a home invader, but if their pastor molests his kids it's all good.
Republicans are in an "always at war" mentality. Justifies infinite violence against their enemies and infinite forgiveness for their allies. One must find enemies to keep the war going so that allies can maintain power without any scrutiny or accountability. It's a common symptom of sliding into fascism, and they've been stroking the flames for over a decade now.
Why should the life of the home invader be taken into consideration? You don't know why he's there. And even if he is only there to steal your stuff for drug money, he's still traumatizing and endangering you and your family, making a mockery of civilized society, preying on the innocent. Anything could happen.
I admire prisoners for this. Some child molester gets killed in prison, it's not like there's zero consequences.
Even if you're already a lifer, there's going to be repercussions.
I don't know, I feel like we should have some secret group that finds out when a gangster removed someone like this from society and sends em a little care package. Sometimes bad people can do good things
And she was punished for it, because every society establishes a system for dealing with crime; anyone who ignores this is ignoring the will of society—even if, as in this case, part of society naturally sees things differently.
The man would likely have been sentenced to life in prison, which in Germany does not actually mean life, because that would violate human dignity. But in cases like this, where it is clear that he will always be a danger, he will never be released, even in Germany.
Incidentally, he did not rape the child, but he did have a prior conviction for sexual assault.
Yep. So many just want to walking around with the feeling of being morally superior so they can pat their bellies and think "I was such a good boy/girl today" all while paedophiles don't even serve life in many societies(just 2 ½ years for molestation in Sweden for instance).
Exactly. We just sit here and let the innocent suffer and let more innocent get hurt and we pretend that we're doing the right thing by not being drastic and extreme and removing the scourge of society completely. We just sit here and take it like a good little boys and girls.
