    Would have been unbelievable if the US police wouldn’t have a long history of framing people because they are just too buttfuck stupid to do their jobs.

    I think the conspiracies that he somehow didn’t do it are nonsense, however I think his “not guilty” plea and approach to this clearly shows that he is down to put the whole (corrupt) process on full display and make an absolute mockery of the legal system - a system that definitely needs to be mocked.

    Unfortunately for the state, they’re doing a very good job of supporting him in his cause.

    I have worked in private security and law enforcement. I have searched people and their bags at security checkpoints to enter government buildings after 9-11. I’ve strip searched males in lockup. There is no way a trained cop or even an experienced security guard would miss something bigger than a tube of lipstick in a backpack. Nothing found in the backpack at Micky Ds and then found a handgun after taking it inside of a police station? Sounds to me like the gun was driven to the police station separately to be planted in the bag. A 3D printed gun could be made by anyone, including the cops. #ACAB

    It’s never made sense to me, TBH. I’ve just assumed he’s being railroaded. In his case the cops just planted a gun instead of drugs like they do to every other person they want to lock up without cause.

    It seems more and more everyday that vigilante justice is the only justice against this corrupt corporate tyranny. I think we all wish this wasn’t the case but as my dad used to say you can wish in one hand and 💩 in the other and see what hand fills up first

    Luigi is innocent. He did not kill Brian Thompson. He is a hero by the simple virtue that he is an innocent young man who was dragged through hell over something he didn’t do and is having his life put on the line.

    As for who actually did it. I hope he lives a long, quiet life.

    When I picked up bodies for the Medical Examiner’s Office, we had very strict chain of custody rules we had to follow. If the decedent had any valuables on their person (purse, wallet, jewelry, etc), or any medication, we had to write detailed descriptions of every item found (a gold ring is not a gold ring, it’s a gold colored ring), then package it all up with the ranking police officer on the scene as a witness who then signs the sealed bag. Even the slightest deviation from this would get us immediately fired, and even prosecuted if surviving family members made any accusations about theft.

    In a capital murder case where an alleged murderer/terrorist can potentially walk free because the chain of custody rules weren’t followed, how the fuck does this cop still have a job? How is she not being charged with tampering with evidence and obstruction of justice?

    Don’t get me wrong, I am all for letting Luigi go free, but this is a fuck-up of monumental proportions.

    So they not only have to find 12 people who haven’t been fucked personally or had friends family fucked by their health insurance, now those 12 people have to be blind Pig supporters?

    Anything other than a not guilty (or some insanely strong evidence with a perfect chain of custody) verdict for this guy and the fix is in.

    If they convict Luigi get the fuck out while you still can, cause the alternative is guerilla warfare against the Gilead states of orange stupidity.

    Goes to show how much this isn’t about Luigi, or even Brian Thompson. It’s about the elite sending a message to the other 99%. Think, even if their case against Luigi is rocky at best, all that matters is they can get him to pay for Brian, regardless of whether he did it or not, or where the evidence points.

    All that matters is that we the “peasants” get the underlying message:

    • If you kill/harm an elite they’ll chase you and make you pay with the full weight of their resources (and emphasis on “resources”, not necessarily “law”).
    • If you did not kill or harm an elite you’re still at risk, because then they’ll choose a “peasant” scapegoat to pay anyway.

    All that matters is that they get to take their pound of flesh, and that the “peasantry” gets discouraged to fight for their rights as the elite takes, and takes and takes.

    Which is why it’s so important that regardless of Luigi having done it or not, he should walk free unless there’s solid, undeniable evidence of him doing it, like an actual and verified non-deepfake video of the assassination with his clear face on it. And even then he must only face the consequences the law demands, and what others would face in his place for killing the everyday average Joe. The fact that the life lost was an elite should have no bearing on the consequences.
