We’ve got innocent people struggling to afford a sandwich while the guy who slaughtered a family is watching TV on a flat screen and filling out crossword puzzles in a clean bed. Like… how is this real life?

And the sickest part? The people barely hanging on, the ones trying to stay afloat in this economy, they’re the ones paying for it too. Imagine losing your own child to violence… and then getting the bill so their killer can keep living comfortably. That’s not just injustice, that’s cruelty in disguise.

I don’t care how anyone tries to frame it, that’s not mercy. That’s a broken system dressing itself up like compassion.

And let’s be clear, these people are NOT humane!

Agreed, 100%
