His lawyers should go for a defense of others defense. Millions of lives were in imminent danger. He had no choice but to act.
I simultaneously do and do not want to see the trolly problem diagram in that courtroom.
In addition, Mangione has been charged with a second count of murder in the second degree, âpertaining to the fact that the killing was intentional,â
The fuck kind of bullshit is that? Theyâre just making up the legal system because rich guy hurt.
Also, just to keep things straight in case people donât know. He has a lawyer for the PA charges, and a separate lawyer for the NY charges.
murder in first degree and murder in the second degree. Two murder charges for one âmurder.â
I donât know enough about NY state law, but I do know that there are states where a jury has an option between finding guilty on a greater or lesser charge. Maybe thatâs whatâs going on?
In NY state, murder of the first degree is reserved for murder against a police officer or something related. So not an average civilian

And now the words âterroristâ and âheroâ have become synonymous, undoing decades of 9/11 imperialist propaganda in one fell swoop.
I mean I wish. But a man can dream.
The difference between a terrorist and a freedom fighter is who wins the war.
The rebels in Star Wars are technically terrorists. Lucas even modeled them after the Vietkong. Same for the Fremen in Dune. In the book, Paulâs holy war is called the Jihad.
Hopefully this should open some eyes, but 9/11 was literally Americaâs version of the recent invasion in Israel.
If anyone reads Osama Bin Ladenâs manifesto, he explicitly states that Western support for Israel is one of the main reasons for the attack.
Yeah. I remember as a kid wondering why they would attack the states like that and my parents and every other adult I asked have different versions of âthey hate our freedomâ or âtheyâre Muslim extremists and want everyone who isnât Muslim to die.â I live in Canada so I can only imagine how much worse it was in the US. To me, even as a child of 11 years old, that sounded far fetched and didnât make much sense. Once the internet became popular I looked it up and realized it wasnât as black and white, good vs evil as all that. Honestly thatâs one of the things that made me start seeing the US as an evil country and start realizing what imperialism was and how horrific it was for the world.
Good job, make that shit waaaay harder to convict đđ
We are all terrorists on this blessed day.
