Even if he didn’t do it I support him.

How come this trial has started but someone like Trump has been waiting for months and years

Rhetorical question

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

The plea always comes quickly after charges.

Whoever actually DID do it, they executed a mass murderer that the government enabled and protected. They should be getting a medal for doing the people a solid.

[-] john89@lemmy.ca 45 points 2 days ago

Based on the evidence, I'd say he's not guilty.

[-] MightyCuriosity@sh.itjust.works 34 points 2 days ago

The weirdest part to me would be why he'd write a manifesto to "save the police time" and then not plead guilty

[-] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 31 points 2 days ago

If you want a trial, you have to plead not guilty. Otherwise, it just goes to sentencing, which would be done in a few weeks.

Pleading not guilty, he'll be in the news every couple weeks, inspiring universal healthcare legislation, candidates, and/or copycats.

This.

Besides the media play that this will get, jury nullification is still a thing. Even when killing is wrong, it's possible to convince a jury of his peers that killing one CEO has saved thousands of people.

Because he has more to say.

If he was trying to genuinely get away with it, he would have destroyed the gun, not written the manifesto, worn a disguise...

Unless that is all fabricated evidence. Im not even trying to meme here. Some of the "facts" and evidence about this case are odd and suspicious.

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 days ago

I heard they found the manifesto with three copies of the Sims

[-] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 days ago

He could want to take the stand and give a speech that will remain a public document forever

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Didn't they charge him with terrorism?

[-] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago

If he didn't do it, why is everyone around here treating him like a hero?

[-] ahal@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 days ago

If he didn't do it, he's a hero for enduring the bullshit the state is throwing at him.

[-] Allonzee@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

I wouldn't have any guilt either.

I'm just more cowardly than Luigi when it comes to consequences.
