Mushroom kingdom banks are a bit slow.
- I mean nobody can carry 100 coins at the same time there because they turn into an extra life, so large transactions are labor intensive.

Is it possible to make a tax deductable donation to hit Trump or Musk?
- No, but you might be able to set up a betting pool. If you just happen to win, make sure you have an alibi.
  But seriously, don't do that. The person who originally thought up that, who I wont name because his name and the name for this thing are probably weighted heavy in the spider bots, was a student who landed in jail twice for tax evasion. Like, the second time happened immediately after the first.
  
  I hear Luigi is starting Luigi coin, where 80% of the coin is held at first by himself and the other 20% available. Slowly he will introduce more into the market

Wanna help get those numbers up?
- Best donation I've ever made.
- Donated, thanks
- How does it benefit anyone?
  
  Scenario where legal team is able to pull something off:
  Brave man gets best legal defense imaginable because of donations
  Gets off or small sentence
  Shows crazy people and billionaires this could happen again and people will help the suspect out
  ????????
  More progress is made.
  
  Benefits a hero

How is he going to defend against suicide with a bullet to the back of his head?
- By who? Didn't Trumpelon piss off federal agents of all kinds?

I know it’s exited the news cycle, but I still remember this was a big thing for the left and right to both agree on supporting. I’d very much like to prompt Trump for his opinion on the man to force him to take a side.
- Best to not remind Trump that Luigi exsist. Don't need him falling out a window with the cameras off and the guards napping.
- prompt Trump for his opinion on ~~the man~~ anything to force him to take a side.
  That's how you get banned from the press pool.
- Actually, a pretty substantial minority of people think what Luigi did was right.
  
  That was not the sentiment I saw when it happened.
  I saw incredibly low turnout for people against the action taken but I saw people on the left and right agreeing and with glee. Like everywhere.
  
  Are you a cop or just a bootlicker?

Pray for Saint Luigi
- And thus the lord said: "Get really pissed off reading books and news, then kill people you've never met before instead of doing literally anything else to actually change the system that causes the problems you were angry about in the first place" Amen.
  EDIT: /s is mandatory

Sanders was the compromise choice

  Wait ... how is that link working?? kbin.social has been offline for months.
  Edit: Ohhhh ... the name of the community at LW is "eattherich@kbin.social" - now I see.
- But I am full!

Anyone smarter than me in law know if there is even a remote chance he walks?
- There is absolutely no way. That jury is going to be tampered with more than any you've ever seen in history.
- Aside from the nullification and hung jurys, there's a good chance for a mistrial from them parading him around and letting everyone in the US know he fought for them.
  
  How did he fight for anybody? Just seems like a run of the mill emotional murder.
- I'm not good at law but I have heard from people smarter than me that there are chances for at least a hung jury (I think could be retried) and there's also another option called jury nullification, where the jury essentially says, "yeah we know he is guilty but we don't agree with the law in this case" and acquits.
  
  Every jury I've ever been on has been hung, just by averaging alone
  
  The jury nullification thing pisses me off.
  I get that people don't want Luigi to go to jail but wishing for juries to just make up the law based on the vibe of the case is just bonkers.
  The court system is a joke already.
- No. He's going to die in prison. I'm not happy about that fact. I'm just telling the truth. Just like there's zero chance Charles Manson ever gets out. There's zero chance Luigi gets out.
  
  Might happen. Then when a sensible government gets in, somewhere down the line, we pardon him and make him secretary of HHS

Then slowed... then surged... then slowed... then surged... then slowed... then they had some orange juice and a muffin... and now they're surging again.
- Then it fell into the swamp

I think by now we can all verify there were no positive impacts from what Luigi did, so there is absolutely no benefit to funding his legal defence: it's just throwing money away to scammers and lawyers that his rich family could already afford anyways.
- There might be more Luigi, if people know they will have their lawyers funded. Then things can change.
  
  I mean if a drone can take out a firefighting plane, why not a corporate jet? You don't need 1000 Luigis. You just need need 1000 people who can follow through on a plan that will make the wealthy afraid.
  
  Things didn't change with 1 Luigi, won't change with 10, would hardly change with 100, and you'll never get 1000.
  1 Luigi could have made real change by participating in politics, instead he threw away his life and his rich boy education. The money in his backpack when he was caught alone could have completely changed people's lives instead of buying a margarita machine for the precinct.
- A ratfucking healthcare CEO whose killed far more people with his greed and indifference to human suffering was erased from this planet.
  I see that as a net postive.
  
  A ratfucking healthcare CEO that pushed a few people into debt while redistributing wealth for covering the healthcare costs of a very large majority of planholders.
  Who was immediately replaced by another healthcare CEO doing the exact same thing.
  I see that as nothing but 1 more corpse on the pile.
- i'll bet if you knew that making these posts put your life in imminent danger, you'd stop making them.
  see how that works?
  
  Didn't work for UHC why would it work for me?
- Are you blind?
  
  My gods! This was the one! The comment that made me change my mind. What a thorough and well thought out argument citing all of those sources.
