@nogodsnomasters his crime was to feeling remorseful

@SeanPLynch @nogodsnomasters and lets not forget that the homeless man handed himself in, and showed remorse for his actions, while the CEO didn't...

And likely to have more than enough left to buy a pardon from Trump.

@nogodsnomasters oh, that's just a k-shaped justice system. If, "k-shaped" sounds familiar, that's the direction our economy and healthcare are heading towards, and soon!

@nogodsnomasters But now the homeless man has a place to sleep, wash up, has clean clothes and three squares a day.

Let me guess-one of them has white skin and the other one doesn’t.

I smell something else in that second newsicle. A judge that housed a man for 15 years in an extremely expensive state run housing program.

As opposed to the Club Fed the CEO will visit.

Willie was sentenced to life without parole. A death sentence.

I'm sure there are thousands of other examples. Unfortunately.

Disproportionate criminal sentencing is a hallmark of plutocracy & oligarchy.

@madness832 @nogodsnomasters In a country that allows forced labour for prisoners, and for profit prisons. I can't tell if you're being sarcastic, or if this is going to turn into "but the slaves were well cared for!"

[netzblockierer@tech.lgbt]

The latter one is cruel and unusual punishment.

[space_burger_steve@mstdn.ca]

@doctormo @stuartb @SeanPLynch @nogodsnomasters Did you know that the USA allows forced, unpaid labour for prisoners, and that for profit prisons make money selling prison labour like to-order slavery? I didn't know for a long time.

@failedLyndonLaRouchite @stuartb @SeanPLynch @nogodsnomasters I can't read the snopes article, because snopes doesn't know the difference between a tracking blocker and an ad blocker.

I can read this article from Cornell though, and it does more to verify than invalidate this story.
