Probably a tougher 8 years if you were already geriatric at the start of those 8 years.

I understand that it's a believable, yet wild conspiracy theory. I also think it's a stretch for the man who wrote and directed a movie with that exact situation as a plot point to be calling it deranged. It's obliviously not that farfetched seeing as he wrote a movie with the concept.

More what than which comment? I don't really understand your comment. I didn't dismiss the concept of childhood trauma.

Good to see. I really enjoyed the demo and have it wishlisted. Poor choice of release date in my opinion though. I was never going to be prepared to buy a full price game the day after the Steam Sale finished.

I mean that's the problem. I'm saying he should already be deep in jail. I'm not saying that because the justice system is failing/corrupt that everyone should just let it slide.

You've gone down the "if we can go back in time, do we kill baby Hitler" route, which I wasn't really exploring.

I actually already had the above poster tagged as "Trump talking point maniac" so that fits. Thanks for the breakdown!

Yes, childhood trauma can be the cause of a lot of mental health issues in adult life, but attributing it to all human shitty behaviour is a wide sweeping brushstroke.

The simple philosophical answer for me is: if you murder someone because of a past deed, or threats of a future deed, you're denying human capacity to change. I personally feel, given the right circumstances, everyone has capacity to change, learn, grow, evolve. Pretty much every bad deed can be put down to humans being opportunistic, selfish, manipulative or backed into a corner. I imagine things would be very different if their needs were met and they were well educated. Most countries (at least in Europe) at least attempt to use the prison system for rehabilitation rather than expensive punitive measures and/or slavery.

Political answer: Trump should be in jail for many, many crimes, not dead.

What the fuck is a blue MAGA?

Pretty good chippy combo. Ask the Canadians about it.

I've read this whole article and I still don't understand why the ammo is important?

Yeah, it is bad that the prosecution did not disclose it, but it was a manilla envelope of loose rounds handed over by a friend of the father of the armourer, who has already been convicted of manslaughter. I can see why they would deem it not to be relevant evidence.

How could it possibly help the defence (other than this exact situation where it got the case thrown out)?

Also why would it not just be a mistrial, rather than the case being thrown out to never be tried again?

This is the only one I saw on my all feed, clicked the community because I've not really paid attention to it and thought it was a funny pairing of pinned posts. If you don't see the irony, what are you even doing in a meme community.
