Jesús. You could rape 5 people and wouldn’t get that.
Also isn’t there another news from UK right now mentioning a 79 y/o driver killing someone and not getting jail time?Wrong London as per below, my bad, still pretty fucked up
It’s not even surprising at this point sadly.Edit: this thing… fucking ridiculous
https://slrpnk.net/post/12614517That was in London, Ontario Canada
Thanks, added a note… I read London, my mind goes to UK despite knowing there is one in Canada, and probably like 10 in US.
In hindsight the km/h should have been a a dead giveaway for me.Yeah, I didn’t mean to take away from anything. Just wanted to let you know
Comparing one jail sentence against another in totally unrelated cases, tried in different courts by different judges, is ultimately a self-defeating and unproductive exercise.
If you think there’s a systematic problem then you need to look at more than 2 cases for comparison. Is there an overall trend towards sentencing protestors to excessive jail time throughout the court system? Or is this one problematic judge who has seen many of the protestor cases and is deciding to make an example out of someone?
Anyway if you’re interested in seeing what it’s like to be a protestor engaging in civil disobedience and especially to see what these folks go through both personally and in the courtroom, I highly recommend the movie The Reluctant Radical.
Nah, rape is worse than protesting. It is pretty simple. Nothing self-defeating about that.
I will look into that movie.
