Six former Mississippi law enforcement officers who pleaded guilty to a long list of state and federal charges for torturing two Black men will be sentenced by a federal judge starting Tuesday.
U.S. District Judge Tom Lee will sentence two defendants each day on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday after twice delaying the proceedings. Each faces the potential of decades behind bars.
Honestly, agree. People need to pick. Do you want human rights violating prisons filled to the brim with people and violence? Or do you just want that for the cops? How many innocent and non violent people are being subjected to the same or similar treatment?
In my opinion, the quality of a society can be observed on how they treat their prisoners. If you’re okay with torturing people who have gone through the judicial system, then you’re just as much a barbarian as any other.
How can you make the world a better place if you are adding suffering? To be fair, I have similar sentiments toward animals especially anything factory farmed. I can’t even tacitly accept any worldview that is okay with the suffering of anyone or anything, let alone one that cheers it on.
Fuck these fucking pigs, but I hope they live lives free of torture, save that imposed by their own consciences (hopefully).
I mean, some of us look up to the sky gods and say “why o why aren’t you helping me” and to animals we are their sky gods and they are asking for a peaceful life and we are fucking them over hard. If I was a god and saw my subjects treating things they are gods to like shit I’d say they aren’t ready for my help yet. FUCK THE FUCKING PIGS!
