Hey, he murdered a person and got away with it, that’s our guy!


Vice President-elect JD Vance on Friday said that he had invited Daniel Penny, a former Marine who was acquitted this week on a charge of criminally negligent homicide after putting a man in a chokehold in a New York subway car, to attend the Army-Navy football game on Saturday with him.

The two will join President-elect Donald J. Trump in a suite at the game, which is set to be played this year just outside of Washington.

    Conservatives love murderers (and rapists). Just select ones though. Usually the ones that kill members of the persecuted groups they hate.

      Maintaining the “proper” social hierarchy is the highest good to conservatives.

      Every position they advocate for and each hero they glorify make sense under this framework.

        Not for nothing but Biden just pardoned that judge that was pipelining juviniles into a for profit prison.

        The whole thing is tits up at this point.

    New York Times, once again perfectly happy to promote murderers when they’re embraced by established power centers.

      and this is why we have reading comprehension tests in school 😂

      informing about something =/= promoting.
