Why are we pretending like this isn't prudent on NYPD's part? If this weren't 2000 miles away I'd probably show up, if not to try and bust him out then at the very least to throw shit at the cops and yell. And if I'm considering driving a prius thru the fence to free the guy, I can only imagine what the non suburban-cishet-white-male-techie demographic is feeling about it.
Yeah, I assumed it wasn't too keep him under control, but because of the hero worship he's receiving.
Of course it still looks really bad on camera. This is one of those lose/lose situations where your best course of action still amplifies a message you probably don't want to amplify.
Absolutely. Turns out people still hate murderers, and like justice. Hence the love for luigi and why Derrick Murderer hasn't got crowds demanding his release...
I'd try to get close enough to look like one of those true crime fanatics and throw my bra and panties at him. Pretty sure he would know how to use the bra wire to make lockpicks.
That sounds completely reasonable, until you realize the mayor of NYC was there right behind him. That one little detail blows up the whole story and makes you realize that it was just a photo op.
I think they're on top of a building after the helicopter landed. Don't quote me on that. I know you're just bullshitting but if you really want to do something don't go throw shit at cops and get yourself arrested, do something smart.
The shareholders demand blood and a show.
Yeah no shit, crowds didn't gather around to ask for the release of the college killer.
^ this.
The media outreach of one person was huge and is a bigger risk to transfer than the other. Ill let you all figure out who is who
They're treating him like he tried to blow up Gotham City when all he did was kill Lex Luthor.
Nah, more like one of Luthor's underlings. Andrew Witty would be more equivalent to Lex Luthor.
That guy is still a cog... Bezos or gates or buffet or musk is closer to luthor
So, given that 4 students is equal to 1 cop and that 1 CEO is more or less equal to 30 cop, We can say that a student is equal to 0.25 cop So a CEO is equal to 120 students live. As they have been around 70 victim to school shooting by year and around 300 school shooting for the last 3 years in the USA, we can deduct that the death of a CEO is around 2 year of school shooting combined (not taking into account the wounded) so around 600 school shooting.
Is my math correct?
What color are the students?
Depending on whether you mean Sandy Hook/Columbine type shootings or any shooting that involves any school property in any fashion then either mostly white or mostly black. If you're averaging a school shooting a day, then you're including any shooting involving school property so mostly black but also fewer students than you'd expect (a lot of "school shootings" are just gang violence that involves school property in some fashion and a surprising number are accidental discharge of a concealed carry that hits no one).
This sounds like a cursed math question on a standardized test.
You're supposed to set up a system of equations and use substitution or row reduction to solve. It's easy! They let you use a ti-89plus titanium, so make sure you're familiar with how to do this on your calculator.
It’s always worth the budget for this shot.
lol, there are actually fewer escorting Superman in a scene meant to be over the top.
My favorite part is when he stands up to talk to the mirrored glass the handcuffs just pop apart like they weren't even there in the first place. Four military soldiers in this picture for a man who could literally turn them into pink mist
VS the entourage NYPD gave Luigi. An unarmed man with a back injury. They really are scared.
This tells me they see Luigi as a more dangerous threat than the military saw fucking Superman in that movie.
it's class warfare, that's what it is.
They kept us busy fighting culture wars post Occupy protests.
And we larped it too.
God willing the pedons got a clue what we are dealing with there.
Insurance is just the tip of the iceberg. All corpos behave like this.
They fuck us on labour side and then turn around and do the same on consumer end too.
Parasites got a good grift and most people can't even ID the enemy.
Warren buffet worship is prime example...
No, it's the maga, I mean the wokes, I mean the global warming deniers, I mean the alphabet people...
There really is no other interpretation. Who can look at this and possibly suggest that they are on our side?
It's plain and simple. Clear as day.
I wish ppl would understand this more. Instead they're hyper fixated on more superficial issues.
He's high profile and people might want to break him out. That's probably the reason.
Bullshit take a good look at that photo. Fucking mayor is standing right behind him. If there was any chance of violence or a breakout the fucking mayor wouldn't be there. This was a publicity stunt.
The guy on the bottom terrorized a section of two states. There were people looking for him. The type of people who live in rural Idaho. Oh dang, I meant to reply above you
I was gonna call bullshit but you're totally right. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwbeq_3GILk&ab_channel=AccessHollywood
That's totally Eric Adams walking in the back.
Meh, bullshit. Was there a credible threat of that happening?
No idea but online shitposters surely would have a good day seeing it happen.
Luigi allegedly did the hard work, the least us betas can do is show some mother fucking respect to this giga chad.
Never forget what Luigi stands for here.
Health care is a universal right. Politicians avoid it via crooked focus groups.
Our job is to ensure this issue never goes away until we get proper system in place.
Pretty sure I've read a million comments of people supporting him and stating he deserves to be free and that he's a modern day Robin Hood, so...yes, there is credibility to that statement lol
Probably lol
It would make more sense that they just killed another CEO on the other side of town when they stationed all these guards to move a CEO killer. Why would you break him out. There are 300 million other CEO killers out there getting trained by governmental failure every day.
Does Luigi want to escape? Who knows. Do people want to break him out? Probably :D
They're afraid he might 3D print an escape copter and break free...
Are there any photos online, where cops don't look like absolute bitchmade pussies? JFC
They wouldn't be cops if they weren't absolute bitchmade pussies.
There were a few pictures during the BLM protests were the cops were friendly with the protesters. Reportedly, the cops beat the protesters right after the press left.
Come on, don't pretend y'all didn't love that photo.
Hero needs to have his posse.
I know, right? Some billionaire might jump out of the crowd and try to start some shit. Gotta be ready for them.
I like your username
They want to look super scared and weak. Its how I see them when it takes that many fedbois for one dude.
It's making a statement that if you go after the rich/CEOs - they'll throw every resource into finding you.
The lesson of the story seems to be to keep the fuck away from McDonalds.
I've started to doubt the McDonald's story - I don't see how anybody could have recognised him, based on the photos that were released. The FBI were given LM's name on the 5th (as someone who had been reported missing), and they arrested him on the 9th. My conspiracy theory is that I think they found him using means that they don't want us to know about, and sent a group of ex-cops to McDs, to loudly talk about him until they were overheard by an employee. So it could've happened anywhere, really.
On a possibly unrelated note. If you were with the NYPD, would you pull strings to be part of that escort? Just a shower thought.
Oh yeah. Like I said in another post, they probably billed six hours of overtime for the ten minute walk. Cops love money just like most of us and they have all kinds of ways to make overtime and danger bonus pay and shit like that without actually working.
This how careers are made so yes, definitely
Well, I mean, it's Emmanuel Goldstein here.
You know, the arch nemesis of the Party, the guy in every Two Minutes of Hate?
Obviously his capture warrants a significant security presence, who knows what he's capable of.
Fast-forward a few months and one memory hole later, headline reads 'Infamous Terrorist Emmanuel Goldstein arrested for murder'.
Cereal Killer?
Hack the planet!
Maybe it is a distraction from strike breaking?
Well, Elon and Donald have taken care of the "salaried" thing now. But yes, they are showing him off like Hannibal Lector. They have treated worse people better, but they just killed "blacks", not CEOs.
They‘re just treating him like this because it is less common to kill a CEO than students or black people.
I hope nobody changes that, sincerely. I really hope that, from the bottom of my heart. If someone was to hunt CEOs for sport, that would be so awful! Oh dear lord I would not want to live in a world where poor innocent CEOs were hunted like dogs.
It would be a horribly dystopian twist on Battle Royale / Hunger Games if CEOs of companies found to have caused needless death or suffering, were rounded up and pitted against each other. And televised.
Nobody should think of that. It’s terrible. Can nobody write that down please.
I wonder what the spectacle would be if someone killed a black CEO.
Race doesn't matter as much once you have enough money and power. Think of Jo Bob from the widget factory and his black friend George. He hates black people but he loves George because he's One of the Good Ones™️
Edit- Once I was at a party at a guy I've known for a long time's new house. He was making big money (for us) as a factory supervisor and got to buy a house. He and his wife's parents are rich but I don't know if they gave them money or not.
He's from out in the country. One of my wife's friends from high school. He gets drunk and starts talking about how there's only one black guy working in his division and that guy laughs at the racist jokes and doesn't care when people say removed.
Now I've ruined people's time before for very stupid reasons, but this time I had a good one. I loudly told him what he and his employees were doing was racist as fuck and the black dude was going along with being dehumanized because he needed the fucking job. He's hated me ever since.
WTF, don't they have a picket line to break or something?
This perp walk is for the elite pigs.
of course it was.
What else would they use it on? Helping low income and disadvantaged people? Pfffff.
Violence is never the answer. Violence is the question, and the answer is "YES".
"Yes to violence" is never the answer.
"The function of that police action, those interventions in Central America and the Middle East, is system sustaining. It is to maintain that overall system. You don't look at the particular cost. I can demonstrate to you that in every single bank robbery, the cost of the police was more than the actual money that the robbers took from the bank. Does that mean there's no economic interest involved? They're not protecting the banks? No! Of course it's economic; of course they're defending the banks. If they didn't stop that bank robbery, regardless of the cost, it could jeopardize the entire banking system. There are people who believe that the function of the police is to fight crime. That's not true; the function of the police is social control and protection of property."
Michael Parenti
Get your filthy hands off our hero you swine.
We always see what we want to see.
Not to mention one did their act in NYC and fled to suburban Pennsylvania while the other had to deal with police from a far more mundane environment. People who think the comparison can be used to paint police intentions (as if they're even a single body like some army of droids and not individuals who have free will to show up) are just sad, it would be like saying "the 1918 plague was not as widely reported or is as known as the smallpox plague, therefore it killed less or was less a priority". People are sadly disproportionate, that's just how things seem to have worked in history.
Maybe they all wanted his autograph too. I wonder who thier health insurance provider is...
Hopefully UHC.
The Mayor of NYC had nothing better to do, too.
Y'all laughing but this how pigs make careers
It's all about attention. They wanted their photos taken. Luigi made history, while children getting massacred is just another day in the USA.
Cops: WEEeee Are The SuperFash!
Luigi: Shutuuup
Cops: Weeeeee Are teh Suuper Faaash!
Luigi: Shut uuuuuuup!
It's so everyone can see who's the boss.
They had to maintain their "fearful" image, or they wouldn't be able to do their job.
Not like they're even doing a good job with their real job. $7.50 an Hour ended up doing their job for them.
might as well, if they're salaried they're getting paid either way.
And this way at least they're not shooting any black people or dogs!
I don't think they're ever off duty for that.
That was my first reaction, but cops make mad overtime. If they are salaried then they are definitely considered "non exempt" which means they can make overtime. Shit like this can let them bill a bunch of overtime hours.
When I was young I heard several adults say something along the lines of "yeah cops love that overtime". I thought it meant they worked all the time. Now that I'm in a job where I bill my own hours I get it. They just claim a bunch of overtime for something unusual like this.
It's because of the circumstances of how both were found.
This meme is STUPID! Those Kids were POOR Dumby! I'm Pro Life and I want to Save The Children!
Stop this nonsense. He is now a public figure, and the police have all the reasons in the world to encounter protests.
If the police sent 5 guys, encountered a small group who attach them you'd all be meme'ing about the police incompetency.
This is the dumbest reason to make fun of the police who make it easy.
This is a perp walk, the police/DA/et al made this happen - and ensured the media was there to capture the moment of him in ‘inmate orange’ flanked by heavily armed state police. Absolutely pre trial prejudicial influence.
Given the speed at which his arraignment and extradition from PA happened, and the fact that the NYPD could have chosen multiple different routes and methods to get him to NYC, he could have been shuffled into a regular prison bus in a police convoy from the airport, with blacked out windows - like is common in Europe where this kind of malfeasance actually results in mistrials and acquittals.
Absolutely pre trial prejudicial influence.
Considering most seem to understand that he's being targeted with extra punishment by the ruling class for daring to kill one of their own, this doesn't do them any favors in dismissing that notion. I know it looks like the Starship Troopers giant bug meme to me.
I would consider your point if the fucking mayor weren't there.
It is just more evidence for the pile to show that police do not exist to protect people, but rather to protect capital.
It's not nonsense.
Nonsense eh?
Dude caused a dip in US GDP, stop acting shocked authorities are making a show of it.
The second CEOs start considering moving to Canada or UK over the US, the economy is done. It's already a serious risk due to way more poor people with guns than most other countries.
The second CEOs start considering moving to Canada or UK over the US, the economy is done.
Ronald Reagan really did a number on the American brain.
Those leeches need us far more than we need them.
God save the economy!
If CEOs leave then a new CEO will take their place in the company. CEOs are not special.
Dude caused a dip in US GDP
That seems implausible. Do you have a source for that? or is that just exaggeration?
I don't see many people here that are shocked.
I apologize in advance to Canada and the UK, but let them. Don’t let the door hit them on the way out.
Then STFU and move to fuckin Canada then all you CEOs, I dare ya.
If every single CEO up and left, that would be, on the whole, the single greatest thing to happen for this country. I'd feel sorry for the rest of the world that would have to deal with them, but it would be a giant step foreword for us.
