Maybe if more terminally ill were committing the crimes, insurance companies would be less likely to turn away patients, and a lifetime sentence wouldn't be so bad.
Also, jurors have power too.

Class warfare in all its glory, going from the cold war phase to a more active phase.
Sure, there were warnings. Remember Occupy Wall Street? Peaceful protest forcibly removed? Well, they're back and less peaceful.
edit: '
Yes, but this seems to be the working class vs the bourgeoisie. The way it was meant to be.
Be the change you want to see in the world
Coming soon to a terrorism charge near you!
What is the opposite of "don't dead open inside"? This works both ways.
Shades by design
Designporn?
Yeah, so weird they would be selling these stickers that could be put really anywhere. Absolutely disgusting if someone purchased hundreds of these and started just sticking them everywhere. https://www.makestickers.com/design/24120721P6VV-pij1gytwuonpuv2ibielr6lk
this is the lesson that children need to learn for a better future
Luigi is more popular than Congress right now.
That's like the lowest bar imaginable
He’s done more to fix our shit situation than they have. Fucking worthless cunts.
What have you done recently ? (Just asking, not in a condecsending way)
I mean, congress negotiated insulin priced down by over 90% average, so you're wrong actually.
The systems still fucked, but it's a bit early to start erasing all the good things from the DNC majority and Biden Admin.
Yeah but that's over. Everything done can be undone.
I expect enough turmoil within the republican party to make 2026 a viable turnover. Right now they can't even agree on who their speaker should be and are heading straight into government shutdown.
If not, it'll at least be difficult to pass everything they want with only a 53 seat majority in the senate.
Don't forget that these people exist because of the propaganda that they take in. They buy into it. They're not yet aware that it's a class war, not a culture war.
Yeah, but that's not hard. I think the approval rating of some strands of herpes is higher than congress.
More popular than JFK.
The sign in the back "money won't save you everybody hates you" sounds like a nursery rhyme. I like it.
I love that the cameraman pans over to all the CEOs wearing the same suit, staring at the protestors
money won't save you everybody hates you
This was exactly where my brain went!
That’s a protest chant
I suspect private security company stocks are about to go way up.
Not a lot of people are willing to put themselves between a CEO and a mass riot for $14/hr.
Lol where have you been? People doing monumentally stupid, dangerous and violent things for insultingly small sums of money for rich assholes is kind of our thing. If you offer silver for violence there will always be takers.
Disagree. People do things for profit to a point. As a veteran who's done security work, soldiers and veterans start because of a faith in doing the right thing. Security work doesn't have that ideology. I don't know about you, but I'd rather go home to my family over fighting off 500 people angry about their lives. It's an entirely different motivation, with entirely different standards to be covered. Money doesn't buy values or standards. And when you buy security, that security can be bought. Nobody is untouchable.
People fight for dictators against their fellow citizens
Their CEOs might want to keep a low profile.
It's Italian plumbers and CEO goombas all the way down
I've stated previously that my next career move would be into security because there isn't a single American who wouldn't step out of the way at the first available opportunity and they fucking know it, so foreign security is the only real option ... and I don't need to tell them it isn't any better just because they didn't personally screw us.
I too am happy that the vast majority of people at the event were just pedestrians walking by without acknowledging them. Can you imagine if these types of people were mainstream?
Decent people are getting pushed too far- they are going more mainstream with each insult, financial hit, and knowledge of the two-tiered justice system.
I’ve been saying it for years, if the Rich are not held accountable, the only option is vigilante justice. Unfortunately, it will have a lot of by-catch. But it’s not the general population‘s fault that it will come to this. It is people with money and power.
They asked nicely
Mood
My goodness! There must be a dozen of them! lol
