A Tale of Two Justice Systems: Only Trump Gets Convicted of 34 Felonies and Receives No Punishment
A Tale of Two Justice Systems: Only Trump Gets Convicted of 34 Felonies and Receives No Punishment
Our justice system is a fucking sham.
Got some weed? Be prepared to be SWATted and thrown in jail for years.
Did you just rape, stole, gave top secret material to our enemies and pushed for a coup? Slap on your wrist and pinky winky promise me not to do that again
pinky winky promise me not to do that again
Best I can do is "no".
You could also be killed for it, because the cops fucked up again and got the wrong house and went in guns blazing.
I wish he would try selling loose cigarettes on a NYC street. I hear you don’t even get a trial for that, just straight to sentencing.
That's a common misconception. Eric didn't have any cigarettes on his person. Meaning the fake crime he was executed for wasn't just minor. It was non existent.
He had been cited in the past for selling loosies. But there's no info on whether they used an undercover or ci to offer to buy a cigarette. Using honeypot traps on pedestrians should be illegal.
Pantaleo's partner, Justin D'Amico, admitted that he exaggerated Garner's charges. D'Amico claimed Garner had been selling 10,000 untaxed cigarettes, which was a felony. However, Garner had fewer than 100 cigarettes in his possession at the time of his death.
No, he did have cigarettes on him. However, it was not enough to matter, and they killed him anyway because they don't actually care about the law.
I wonder what the fuck is in the water over there, since half the population is crazy!
Lead, lots of lead.
Honestly? We are just stupid and believe America is the best country in every way, despite all the evidence to the contrary. That, coupled with a Fuck You attitude and racism leads us directly to JD Vance.
Cuts to education and removing critical thinking and prep resources from the upbringing of more and more civilians over decades will do that, yep.
Yeah, but imagine if he had a bag of weed on him too.
Oh wait, he's still rich and white, it wouldn't have mattered!
Yet crybaby Trump it's still whining and complaining.
Can people start protesting about two tier justice correctly now please?
He shouldn’t have been allowed to run until all outstanding criminal litigation was completed, and any punishment served/paid.
Disagree, because it would be abused.
An accusation would all that was needed to take out political opponents.
That's the shitty part. When it was "adults" it wouldn't have been an issue, but since children where allowed to run the government it would now be weaponised, as you pointed out.
That attitude was a big part of why Clinton lost in the first place.
We didn’t have enough cops no-knock raid his home.
"Nobody is above the law."
Lol
Still trying to imitate a real human smile. Still just as bad it.
He just can't get the hang of it.
No, you see he was sentenced to unconditional discharge. TOTALLY different.
LOL. poor SNL...reality too funny.
sure hillary, bill and all the others dont deserve a punishment for being crooks. may monica go check the mailservers.
Somebody just needs to add a laugh track to American news, and be done.
I feel like the courts hands were tied here. How do you put a man who was just elected to be the next president in prison, or even on probation? Ultimately, the decision was made by the American voters.
That being said, even if Trump had lost this election, he still probably wouldn't have done any time in prison, since he still would have been a former president, and that would have been a tricky enough situation.
How do you put a man who was just elected to be the next president in prison, or even on probation?
Exactly the same as every other person. Nobody should be above the law.
Never know until we try.
I don't think we can, honestly.
Like I want Trump locked up, along with any politician who claimed the election was stolen.
But the fact is, the orange shit won 2024 and in 9 days (uuuugh) will fully pardon himself making any punishment nullified be the president again (thanks for the correction, he can't pardon himself from state charges.
If the various governments actually wanted to punish Trump (they don't, unfortunately) they would have actually done something and took advantage of the FOUR FUCKING YEARS that there was a possibility of their cases making any impact at all.
Our broken justice system is slower than our corrupt political cycle, which lets those in power do whatever they want.
Yeah, but you can see why people who don't want to see the US federal government potentially collapse into chaos wouldn't want to try it, right?
Well you start by arresting him and you end by keeping him in prison until the end of his sentence.
Seems pretty simple to me.
What the fuck are you saying? Courts hands were tied?? USA is a constitutional democracy, not a mobocracy. Judiciary is to be independent. Blind justice weighing facts of the case and here president or not is irrelevant.
Sounds about white
That’s rich
Sounds about orange*. I don't think even your average white person is this well taken care of in the US court system
