All these school shootings, the proliferation of alt-right views in gaming culture, and this surprises you?Damn. 22. No empathy, but I didnt realize the murdering scum was so young.
Here we go with the mental illness bullshit again. Jesus Christ.
Rot in prison, scum.
Knowing our legal system. He may get it sadly. Remember, Brock Turner?
I'm a believer in mercy.
The caveat is, you have to be truly remorseful, and still must be punished if guilty.
The worst part about this is, depending on who's in the jury, this could actually work...
Am I too pessimistic for thinking this might work for the scumbag?
Trump pardons this guy and he loses the election easily.These are federal crimes so I expect a decent sentence, and then half expect Trump to pardon because "the prosecutors were being very mean, very unfair"
Against whom though? Joe Biden? Jeb Bush?
He's already losing tons of support in the key states he won, so it's not a big prediction here.
holy fuck i would be on the front lines of that riot
That's not true. I grew up in the bible belt. People fall into it just as randomly as they fall out. The difference usually being whether or not they have a support structure of idiocy to back them up. Mind you, I grew up with this shit preinternet so now, you can have a crazy white supremacist network at your back and call even if you're the only one in town. I'm just saying it's not a "you are a white supremacist until you rid yourself of the taint" sort of thing.All these school shootings, the proliferation of alt-right views in gaming culture, and this surprises you?
No one just randomly falls into white supremacy; rather, you work to rid yourself of that status quo.

James Fields deserves mercy, but unfortunately there's a queue and it's 419 years long.https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/neo-nazi-who-murdered-heather-heyer-in-charlottesville-asks-judge-for-mercy/ …
Goddamn the government pulls zero punches in their sentencing memo

CW: extreme racism
Both a hate crime and an act of domestic terrorism

This is from Field's *defense*, which admits: he was not being attacked, he was not being prevented from leaving. Let the alt-right conspiracy theory die.
Your honor, please think of the negative impact all these anti-Semitic slurs had on the mental health of my client, who was chanting anti-Semitic slurs

I'd like to think he's not that stupid. But he keeps lowering the bar.
You sure about that?
What makes you think he wouldn't pardon one of the "very fine people"?
What makes you think he would be held accountable for doing so?
I don't believe that everyone in America is a Nazi because, well, that would be ridiculous. I'm saying that white supremacy as an ideology is pre-baked into our society that you are automatically somewhere on that spectrum by the time you're cognizant enough to even start absorbing the social differences between different racial groups. What then starts happening, is that you start walking in a direction along that range over the course of your life: whether or not you become more radicalized towards outright Nazism- where you "fall"-- or whether you actually start getting into anti-racist work and trying to proactively and aggressively deprogram the sociopolitical conditioning you've been and are still constantly being subjected to daily, or- like most people- whether or not you fall somewhere in between.That's not true.

Yeah. If more people were open to that idea, maybe we wouldn't still be dealing with them in 2019.
Fuck you, you Nazi piece of shit. I hope you rot in prison for the rest of your pathetic life.
.The mercy is you not getting the death penalty, you miserable sack of shit.
That's cruel and unusual.He should spend a life sentence of 40 years in solitary confinement. Don't less this guy interact with other supremacist in prison.

So, I don't think everyone is a Nazi or alt-righter or whatever. But! I also don't believe a single white person when they say they're not racist, which is the major thrust of the issue; it's the prevalence, the sheer banality and normalcy of racism, that helps give cover to the out-and-out Nazis to do shit like run over protesters. It's stochastic terrorism taken to the most extreme conclusion. It's the constant calls for sympathy and understanding of a rust belt that doesn't want a damn thing to do with me. It's the insistence on defining white adults as children. It's the op-eds about Trump voters. It's the defining of "real America" and the "working class" without a single drop of color. It's the fact that anyone even thought Trump was a reasonable choice in the first place, particular in context to electing a black man right beforehand.
It's these things that will inevitably open the path for some young white teens to go on and murder others. The fact that this particular shitstain is 22 isn't a surprise to anyone who has historically always been on the wrong end of the barrel.
.Fuck you, you Nazi piece of shit. I hope you rot in prison for the rest of your pathetic life.
