Its fascinating the amount of attention this subreddit gives to things like Eversource, traffic on the Merrit, pizza, and other unimportant cultural touchstones, but a lunatic murders a 1 yr old child and its pretty much silence.

Cop does something bad...the ACAB crowd is out in force.

But a criminal, with multiple priors does something absolutely heinous and the progressive crowd has nothing to say. In any other thread, a discussion about our soft-on-crime policies or trend towards light sentencing gets shouted down as being too punitive and harmful to the offenders, who are of course victims of the "system."

So given this context, I'd love to hear from some of the romantic progressives about how this guy doesnt deserve to be locked away for life (or worse), or about how this is the fault of the police, or capitalism, or...whatever flavor-of-the-day structural issue of your choosing.

It’s crazy too, this guy has a lengthy arrest record and is clearly not fit for society. It’s the same old story lately for all these murders and people arrested after having committed a violent crime lately to show that they have been arrested multiple times before. They should have never have been on the streets and an innocent person suffers.

I would wonder what you think they should say. A lot of the other things you referenced - even Eversource or pizza - is reliable as the weather. You can complain about it, it’s a universal experience, and things could be done about it if we could all work together and agree about it.

This doesn’t seem like a systemic problem, it seems like a one off. If you wanted to avert it the only things I could think about would be faster arraignments and mental health resources because presumably this guy has anger issues at a minimum. It’s just a tragedy and I don’t see a way to politicize it. I’m sure if someone finds an angle it will be politicized - but I’m glad for the family it happened after the election so it won’t be so much.
