Don’t agree. Should be seeking life in prison without parole

Brian Thompson was a honest man that, like any other, found purpose maximizing shareholder value.

Highly politicised decision this

That’s one way to make him a martyr…

I am sure that won’t have consequences.

Huh. Was hoping it was an April Fools. Guess not.

The death penalty is an extraordinary waste of money and they are seeking this essentially as a form of virtue signaling.
I think this is going to backfire – one of the biggest pro-luigi people I know is a die-hard young conservative man who doesn’t see that Republicans are almost entirely in favor of making healthcare worse

Not surprising but its a bit much dont you think?

I think he should be denied due process and sent to a prison in El Salvador. Just to demonstrate that people actually will show up to protest that happening, under the right circumstances.
Guess this sub doesn’t like John Brown or martyr references, but it’s going to happen if you kill him.

This feels like an incredibly short sighted decision. This is already so politicized and this feels like it will super charge the whole thing.
Bondi really fueling the leftist fire the last month and I hope it drives them to get out and vote

This ironically may increase the chance of him getting off on jury nullification. I can imagine some people voting to convict if the maximum sentence is life in prison, but perhaps backing out if they know he’ll ride the lightning if convicted. Plus, it also makes him easier to rally around as a sort of martyr or folk hero.

Sometimes I wonder if the people in power ever actually think stuff like this through.

The death penalty is bad.

I’m not one of those people who glorifies what he did, but this is an incredibly stupid decision. Not only is the death penalty bad, but this will simply rise class tensions and make him a martyr, emboldening copycats.

The goal of this is to bait online leftists into outrage so that republicans can call democrats pro murder and give Fox News an outrage cycle

I oppose the death penalty in almost all cases, so I disagree with this decision.

I support death penality in general for likes of Roof, Gacy, Tsarnaev and such, but Mangione is clearly not exactly as bad as them and I am having bit hard time imaging you will get all jurors to agree that he should get the death penalty, and per SCOTUS precedent, everyone on the jury must recommend it. I would seek 50 years or life in prison or something, but not death.

Only against it because I’m opposed to the death penalty in all circumstances. This POS definitely deserves life without parole though.

Extremely justified.

C’mon leftists. As annoying as you are, this is your chance.

It was terrorism in the form of premeditated murder and there should be minimal room for doubt as to his guilt. That’s about as good a case for the death penalty as any involving only a single murder.
