    So I’ve been reading about Healthcare Batman. He has been caught.

    He’s very handsome so that will be good for him in a jury trial.

    He’s ideologically motivated , that is very bad in a jury trial.

    He’s a vigilante who doesn’t believe in accountability, which I don’t agree with.

    His target was a totally evil man and the world is well rid of him.

    US and state governments have failed the American people by allowing such evil to exist for decades.

    This will be an interesting trial.

      Group chats with the girlies and the gays are going feral over him. That mugshot though. 🥴

      This whole episode came at precisely the wrong time. Even if it could nucleate a revolution there’s just no way it would happen under the incoming presidency. Hopefully a nice reminder that most Americans are more similar than they are different on most issues.

      Let’s keep in mind he hasn’t been found guilty yet. He’s just a “person of interest”. Although he’s been charged, it’s also worth keeping in mind that the rich always get the benefit of the doubt and the innocent until proven guilty mentality. No reason he shouldn’t get the same

      Also, he hasn’t even been charged with murder yet. Just carrying a false ID, illegal possession of a firearm, and a couple other felonies/misdemeanors of related nature

        The opening scene of Fahrenheit 451 has been going through my mind the past 5 days. It starts with a man being hounded, just a man, guilt or innocence did not matter, the fact he was out and about and ran was proof of guilt". The chase was a show to satisfy the bloodlust of the public and give a show of justice. Totally terrifying.

      He’s from a very wealthy family. Like, they own country clubs and nursing homes, wealthy.

      Went to private school, and was considered wealthy by their standards even.

      If it’s really him, it’s going to be an interesting trial given his family’s resources.
