Graham Platner was in Iraq like the ICE agent who killed Renee Good and he murdered many civilians in the exact same way. (lemmy.ml)

Counterpoint, trauma and societal factors don't relieve anyone of culpability for their actions. My heart bleeds not for a doxed murdering nazi scumbag.

“Guys the person you are all blaming was forced into joining the Green Shirts.”

Me: then he is a Green Shirt himself and deserves the hammer like the rest of them

Nope. Absolutely not.

Jonathan Ross is a murderer who had an entire career in the Army and 20 years on the job with DHS to LEARN THE FUCKING RULES.

He murdered Renee Good in cold blood, and he deserves everything he's gonna get for it.

Graham Platner "joined the military to kill people and had an excellent time doing so" in his words.

I haven't cared about what BadEmpanada has to say about much of anything for some time now. It's not that he's wrong about everything, or even wrong about this, necessarily, he's just misguided. His insights aren't insights so much as they are the musings of an ideologue. He's never been in a position where he's had to try and put his theories into practice, and it shows.

Nah fuck that. I’ve guy murdered a woman! Absolutely dismantle the system that does push people to joining for a job that’s pretty fucked ip, but the system didn’t murder a woman, a person did. A person made the choice to pull the trigger, and even called her a ‘fucking bitch’ after doing so. Fuck that, fuck him.
