There's a new month, and there's a fire sale on crimes at Fredo's White House of Deals. Discuss.

speaking of Italy I saw they're trying to incentivize people to move to their more remote villages and stuff

WHERE MY HOSE DRINKERS AT

quote:


Irish Deputy Prime Minister Simon Coveney said Boris Johnson’s reported plan to construct customs checkpoints a few kilometers either side of the Irish border was a "non-starter" and not a serious proposal.

Irish broadcaster RTE reported late Monday that the British PM’s new plan for the Irish border involved an "all-Ireland" trade zone limited largely to food and agriculture, with other imports and exports required to pass through newly constructed customs clearing centers between five and 10 miles back from the Irish border on either side. According to RTE, the information came from technical papers, officially called “non-papers,” sent by London to Brussels.

Hong Kong riot police are starting to use live ammo:

quote:

HONG KONG (Reuters) - Hong Kong police fired tear gas and water cannon at petrol-bomb throwing protesters and shot a teenage demonstrator, as pro-democracy activists defied the city’s Chinese rulers on the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic.

Cat-and-mouse clashes spread from the upmarket district of Causeway Bay to the Admiralty area that is home to government offices on Hong Kong island, with police vans chasing down pro-democracy protesters in the key drag of Hennessy Road.

Thousands of black-clad protesters, some wearing Guy Fawkes masks, marched on Admiralty, ignoring a police ban. Violence escalated across the harbor to Kowloon and beyond to the New Territories in the most widespread unrest in nearly four months.

“There are rioting acts across Kowloon, Hong Kong island and the New Territories,” police said in a statement.

Police said they shot an 18-year-old man in the shoulder in the Tsuen Wan area of the New Territories.

“A large group of rioters was attacking police officers in Tsuen Wan,” police said in a statement. “Police officers warned them, but they were still attacking police. A police officer’s life was seriously endangered. In order to save his and other officers’ lives, they fired at the attacker.”

And this is showing a poo poo-ton more restraint than American police, so saying it's "getting there" in regards to Tiananmen is pretty laughable

I think it's just first degree murder so her sentence range is 5-99 years.

I'll be convinced when she doesn't get the minimum sentence, isn't put in the best possible prison conditions, and isn't released the moment parole becomes available.

And what in the world makes you think she feels guilty for a moment? That she cried when she found out she would be punished?
