@HistoryBoomer@CathyYoung63 So while it may be important to keep in mind that subway shoving murders are statistically rare, it is nonetheless an unnecessary abdication of responsibility to fail to notice that many of these types of crimes are committed by mentally unwell walking red flags who have had
The interesting part is that land acknowledgements always skip the original inhabitants. They didn't mention a single Illini tribe, only tribes that stole their land.
One of the reasons we should expect to see more Mamdani-esque politicians rise to the top of the Democratic Party is that it is now a legitimately socialist party.
@HistoryWJacob One of my favorite Mark Twain quotes:

The fact that Ellison is still in office given that he is on a recording essentially soliciting political donations to help the fraudsters get away with their crimes is crazy to me.
What is wrong with Judges mannnn.
Witnesses say this a-hole ran over a 8 year old girl on purpose and the judge gives him a $1000 unsecured bond?
Insane!
Yes, I expect the police to detain and hold a person so mentally infirm that he throws a toddler to crocodiles. This is like the lowest possible bar for saying there are people who are not capable of being in public and there are still those tunneling to get under that bar.
Mamdani-endorsed, pro-terrorism Congressional candidate (D-NY):

Prison abolitionists need to be expelled from the party. These freaks are dragging our approvals down.
Watch as Darializa Avila Chevalier, prison abolitionist, is asked *four times* how she would handle a murderer, and each time refuses to answer. https://t.co/NFXYotaFx0
Child rape.
Organised sexual exploitation.
Crimes that ruin lives forever.
Many of the sentences already seem astonishingly lenient given the scale of the harm caused. In many cases shorter than the period of time they abused these vulnerable girls and young women!
Then we reduce them further.
If some of the worst offenders in society aren't expected to serve most of their sentence, what exactly is the purpose of sentencing? Where is the deterrant? Or justice for the victims?
Due to the Sentencing Act 2026, Arshid Hussain – the man who abducted and raped me as a child, and who did the same to dozens of other children – is being considered for early release. He was sentenced to 35 years in prison in early 2017 and was described as one of the most dangerous men in the UK. He was later convicted of further offences.
His brother, Basharat Hussain, is also being considered for release.
I honestly can’t put into words how disgusted I am with the British government.
