Charlottesville attacker gets life sentence

[Vetalia]

Death penalty, period. A man that runs down others in his car that he doesn't like is the utmost coward.

[Grenartia]

The commanding officer of detention centers was "repromanded" but that's about it.

Underrated post.

[Greater Cesnica]

Underrated post.

Wait who's getting a swastika carved into their head here?

[Liriena]

Misgivings about life sentences asides, this is good, even if it's not a solution to the problem of far right radicalisation and violence.

[British Tackeettlaus]

Odds on trump pardoning him? Federal sentence, and he is one of his very fine people!

[United Muscovite Nations]

Glad he was sentenced to life in prison instead of the death penalty. I see this as a good thing, I hope he will consider the impact his actions have had on other people and turn his life around while in prison.

Do you feel he should be released at some time?

>life in prison plus 419 years

He ain't getting out if the judge gives the jury what they've asked for.

[The Fifth Federation]

That is what he needed.

Perhaps if, in his later years, his health declines dramatically and he shows repentance. But as a rule, no.

Well the idea of parole in 20 then if hasn't reformed repeat until he is or dead does sound kinda nice.

[Greater Cesnica]

He shouldn't be let out imo. He's an unrepentant jackass who frequently insulted Heather Heyer and her mother while in prison.

Yes.

Yes.

The thing is he was really good at escaping prison. And he killed after doing so. But I understand where your opposition comes from.

Please read the thread again, we already went over how giving the death penalty costs even more than life imprisonment.

It would also send out a very strong signal.

[Risottia]

The death penalty doesn't have to be expensive, if we take away people's right to an attorney. Lets shift the Overton window so that we can consider bringing in a Napoleonic system. If you're not guilty, chances are you should be able to prove that yourself.

The Napoleonic system does not rely on the presumption of guilt, or on not having a right to legal counsel.
Maybe you're thinking of the Terror.

Instead of making me skim over 10 pages of posts why don't you just link me the supposed citations?

[Aclion]

How about that it's less cruel then life in prison?

That's the fault of your prison system then. It also assumes I'm that fussed about being cruel or less cruel to this particular person.

Nah, i'm talking the inherent cruelty of life imprisonment.

Sure does. Burden of proof didn't fall on me however. And even then one ought to be careful what sources they cite.

The most important fact here is that almost everyone except for Andrew Anglin et al condemns this attack. At least political violence is outside the Overton Window in America.

This isn't going to be the case for long. I'd give it just 10 or so more years. It'd depend on how angry Liberals can get Conservatives to be, once there is too much of a blue wall in place from immigration and negative forces pertaining to globalism. If Democracy can't deliver GOP victories anymore, it is of course going to be abandoned by a sizeable portion of the country in favor of a more authoritarian system. Failing this, secessionism is probably going to be big once again.

Democracy can't deliver GOP victories now absent gerrymandering, vote suppression, election manipulation and collusion with foreign powers. Y'all didn't win the last presidential election, y'all just beat the spread.
