Fuck the people who reported him.

That McDonald's worker should be hiding

Oh come on, you might not agree with them employee but he (probably) murdered a man - not everyone's willing to give a free pass on the 'right murder' and I don't think they should be threatened with violence over this disagreement

$10k from the NYPD plus $50k from the FBI. To an average McDonald's employee $60,000 is a life changing amount of money. I'm not not angry, I'm just disappointed.

The employee sent someone to live life in prison. As far as drag's concerned, that is murder. The employee allegedly did the same thing Luigi is accused of - murdering a murder. There are only two differences. One of the murders was aided by the state, and the other one was against a serial killer with the blood of thousands on his hands. Drag knows which murder is justice.

Intense read of the situation. If he gets Epsteined then maybe you're right, but we're not quite talking 'reporting a subversive to a totalitarian state' here - ostensibly there's still rule of law.

Yeah, we are talking about reporting a subversive to a totalitarian state. Brian Thompson is a murderer and the state let him do it.

I'm not sure you and I have the same notion of what a 'totalitarian state' is, but c'est la vie. Have a nice day
