      Have you seen how long it takes someone to get through death row? If convicted, he will sit for 20 years. Far far beyond the current political discourse.

      If he gets convicted, that will be a stink for a while. But by the time they kill him, he will be a distant memory.

      Martyrs die when the timing is optimal. If it isnt the right time, they are just a name on a gravestone. And we have plenty of those.

      Luigi Mangione has been the only thing uniting the left and right in the US. This is one of the few things that has managed to break through Fox News propaganda. Killing a legendary hero isn’t the win the GOP thinks it is.
