According to here, the spill has stopped because it was caused by a rockslide hitting the pipe (that spewed a shitload of oil) and the company shut it off. The company is "claiming" it's fully contained in a retention area before going into a river. But that aside, if they're completely lying, this isn't a Gulf of Mexico case where it's a never-ending gusher.

well.... allowing people to plea deal hate crimes and racism seems problematic given our country's tainted history with hate crimes and racism. this may not be what the issue is, but this is my own personal issue with it. e: I am also ignorant on how this poo poo works but my impression of plea agreements is that they are designed to save time and money, not for any type of justice. boop the snoot fucked around with this message at 15:09 on Jan 31, 2022 |

If I remember correctly, they're full-blown state-convicted already, so pleading to the federal charges gives everyone a win. The murderers get to serve their sentences in the federal prison versus a state prison. The federal government locks in a conviction that makes sure the murderers serve time even if anything fucks up with the state case - and it basically locks in that the murderers won't appeal said state case. No clue why people are mad.

Send them to Marion. It's not quite ADX Florence and has a nasty reputation. A cousin of mine spent a few years in Marion. He did not have good things to say about it. They really need to be sent to a labor camp like that one in Louisiana with the annual rodeo.

Only thing I had seen so far is that the victims family was unhappy about it. One of the two that reached a deal is already in prison for the rest of his life and the other likely will be as he's not eligible for parole for 30 years. There's not much point in wasting resources to continue to prosecute them. I'm certain their deal has some guaranteed sentence if their state charges were somehow over turned. The last probably didn't accept the deal because it required an admission of guilt or something similar.

This is why Prosectutors dont work for the victim, they work for the state and the people generally There is no actual upside to another expensive trial here - the state trial already gave these men their due process and they probably realize its in their best interest to plea. Our prison system is not supposed to be hell on earth - wanting these men subjected to the worst abuses our system of justice can muster is inhumane and beneath what we should ascribe to as a society. Victims and their families are often upset about plea agreements, thats just the nature of our totally hosed up system. CRUSTY MINGE posted:Send them to Marion.

I agree. Angola is just an extension of slavery and in a just world, wouldn't exist. I'm also of the mind that realistically, that won't happen. Their crimes were so malicious, though, that if anyone deserves to break boulders down to aquarium pebbles for the rest of their lives, it's those 3.

The marines currently exist for the grandchildren of WW2 and Korean war marine veterans can follow in grandpappy's footsteps and be a marine. In some families, it is tradition to sacrifice youth to call yourself a marine. Usually it's the kid that hangs a marine corp flag on their bedroom wall. Everyone else is just smart enough to join another branch. If my grandfather had been a marine (he wasn't in any service, smart guy), I'd have been eating crayons as a teenager.

My dad it was the total opposite, he did everything in his power (especially after 9/11 when I was still freshman in college) to ensure I stayed out of the military. It’s not like he was embarrassed about his own time in the service, he just knew there a lot a better paths available now (well for treating ADHD, such as knowing what it is, and goddamn I’d be a bad culture fit. The only thing he could kind of accept would’ve been the Air Force and that’s mostly just so I wouldn’t get shot. But we’ll ADHD is as much a bar as if I had murdered someone and ate their corpse. For further irony points, the Marines are the hardest to get a waiver for, and the Air Force is apparently the easiest, in regards to ADHD. I think he might be the one of the few guys who occasionally puts out a Marine flag who is not insufferable or a CHUD.
