    If he dies without seeing any consequences for his actions, I’ll be a little disappointed (and not even slightly surprised). I’d rather see him live a long and miserable rest of his life behind bars.

    But I guess sometimes we have to take what we get…

      At this point he just needs to be gone as soon as possible. Preferably in a very public and humiliating way, related to his age and health, so he can’t be turned into a martyr for maga.

      I thought like this when Biden was elected. I thought it was only a matter of time before Fatboy McKiddieFiddler was behind bars…now I just want him gone. And for just one person in america to have enough spine to go after the rest of that crime family and enablers.

        This is how I’ve been. As much as I’d love to see them suffer for their crimes I just want them gone from this planet as quickly as possible.

        The suffering of hanging at the end of a rope or the fear of knowing the bullet’s coming is enough for me

      Leaving him only behind bars is something too soft, kind and indulgent. He has to suffer something equivalent to what he’s caused.

      He ensured that with this last election. I said it after his first election. No consequences will happen to him. We may know he did wrong. But all he will do is point out the weak points in our system. It’s on us to fix them.

      As satisfying as it would be, I don’t want this over just being done with him. Seeing how shitty things are, there’s a chance he doesn’t stay behind bars. It also doesn’t actually do any good, besides people just getting off on revenge.

      I’m pretty done with revenge fetish shit. It’s a large part of why our prison system is so fucked up. If you’re trying to reform someone then fine, lock them up. If you’re just doing something for revenge then I’m not really for it, especially if it comes with a large risk in the unknown future.

      (This isn’t to say I agree with the death penalty. The justice system fucks up far too frequently to allow it to have that power.)
