    I feel this whole case is everything wrong with the justice system (aside from him actually facing consequences). A corrupt cop with a history of violence gets attacked in an overpopulated and understaffed prison where folks are punished instead of rehabilitated.

        If someone can be rehabilitated, I believe that implies that they can be unhabilitated. It kinda implies that people aren’t inherently bad / don’t do bad things without something causing them to. If your dog shits inside because you forgot to take it out, do you punish it? If so, congratulations on being consistent, -ly an asshole.

    It’s kinda freeing to be done with the disney channel ass idea that you should never celebrate others’ misfortune. It lets headlines like this be heartwarming instead of disappointing

      That people are being stabbed in prison is an indictment on the barbarity of our prison system, so this should still piss you off.

        I mean they basically just told you that they’re a sociopath, so I don’t think they care.
