Let’s be real though. He did it, we know he did it, and Lemmy is just hoping that he can get off on some technicality. I hope he’s convicted because, ya shouldn’t be able to just shoot someone you don’t like. Yes, he shot a scumbag. But that’s a slippery slope because I think lots of people are scumbags, but I don’t shoot them.
I wanna see Luigi convicted and sentenced to life in prison. But I also want to see insurance execs like the one he shot, convicted and sentenced to life in prison.
The police officers failed to inform him of his rights before a custodial interrogation, so use of the information gathered in those 20 minutes in court would violate his rights as an American citizen who is owed a fair trial that follows due process.
In addition to that, the police officers violated his constitutional rights by searching his possessions without a warrant.
By convicting him, we allow police officers to act as authoritarian jackboots, with no regard for law or due process. We give up the very rights we fought for in the violent birth of our nation. Some could argue that Luigi was fighting against a similar type of tyranny that our Founding Fathers were in their revolution against British oppression.
Perhaps he did shoot that CEO in broad daylight. Maybe he didn’t. It doesn’t matter, as convicting him would be surrendering our liberties and that should enrage any patriot.
I have said previously i don’t know if he did it or not. I’m still waiting for the evidence to be presented in court. The media and by extension much of the public have already decided he’s guilty which limits his ability to have a fair trial which only complicates things further.
Now do i think people should go around killing people they don’t like or don’t agree with? No.
But what is equally troubling to me are your words that you want to see him convicted and sentenced to life. Do you want that even if his constitutional rights have been violated? Is it OK to ignore some constitutional rights under certain circumstances?
The thing about constitutional rights is that we shouldn’t choose when they are upheld and when it’s ok to ignore them. This is a large issue in the US right now in more than just the right to a fair trial, and even extends to human rights violations.

Fuck it, I’ll play.

There’s no slope more slippery than eroding due process.
Innocent until proven guitly. Without that, we can not claim to be a free country.

If the only evidence they have is the bullshit provided by the police, then it’s impossible to say they got the right guy
Even aside from human rights, those eyebrows look very different in every security camera picture and on Luigi
