The state trial against Mangione will come before his federal trial, prosecutors said.
WTF? I never heard about federal charges-- isn't that double jeopardy?
Like the reporter said, they might be trying to make it so there are no copycats, but they clearly don't understand the number of people that wouldn't want to be making it out alive. Their trumped up charges aren't a deterrent.
If I were USian, I'd be mega-pissed that they are making the CEO's death out like Luigi killed the king.
More. Rips bleed, slams bruise.
I disliked the effects of weed back when it was illegal (Canada); just made me paranoid. Our legalization of recreational marijuana helped me understand that weed is more than THC. (Anything I'd have smoked back in the 90s was probably crazy amounts of sole THC.)
Legalization has allowed me to experiment with CBD levels. Now I get a 1:2 ratio of THC:CBD and it's a completely different thing. I'm relaxed, smiley, glued to the couch and off of Benzos. (I like Mango Haze.)
I know it's not for everyone, and I'm not a pusher, but I thought I'd mention that CBD is a game changer. (There is CBG now too.)
Keep choosing life, we need you in it <3
Thanks! @candybrie@lemmyworld
Are you okay, friend?
I think for those of us who have universal healthcare, it still has the David vs Goliath appeal.
Referring to the Thompson killing, Frankel added, "You can be up in arms about the healthcare industry, but you can't threaten or actually hurt members of the healthcare industry.
Ironic to use that phrase 🤔
The original usage of ‘up in arms’ was entirely literal. To be ‘in arms’ or ‘at arms’ was to be equipped with weapons and armour.
Modern usage still defines it as preparing for a fight, Frankel.
Ahh ok, clearly I need more weed!
I usually try to slip around geese, and if that fails I book it.
Thanks. Hopefully at some point that can be a thing :)
Lol, I am a woman.. so I'm pretty sure I care about Woman's Issues.
To people who don't know the story (ie potential jurors) it could be detrimental, but I'm sure his lawyer will address that.
