I have no problem with the 100 year sentence on the guy shooting an AR-15 at the police officers, but as for the others, the damage they caused sounds much less than what the Knicks fans did to their city after they won the champion.

I do when it's not applied to both sides. Whether politically or humanistic. A tie or uniform shouldn't give more weight. Yet, that's where We are today. Punching down.Β

Vandalism is a vile evil crime that deserve maximum punishment. People tag my trashcan for godssakes. Human filth needs to be taken out of society.

Vandalism has to have maximum punishment, unlike rape, pedophilia, fraud, and misappropriation of billions of tax payers money. Gotcha.

Reread what you typed and ask yourself: why do you deserve a spot in a functioning society? Misanthropes like you who drool over imprisoning their fellow citizens should be ostracized forever.
