I wish I would've met you
Now it's a little late
What you could've taught me
I could've saved some face
They think that your early ending
Was all wrong
For the most part, they're right
But look how they all got strong

That's why I say, "Hey, man, nice shot
Good shot, man"
That's why I say, "Hey, man, nice shot

No personally I don't think his crime was horrendous, and I certainly wouldn't end my life over the repercussions he faced. Point is he did a political corruption and paid the ultimate price, and I think that is good. The consequences of betraying the public trust should be life changing. Most of these cowards would rather die then have to live by the laws they create. I think that's wonderful for all of us.

Corruption is bad, but I'd prefer nobody died over it. I understand what you mean though.

Yea I don't think that they should die or kill themselves. I just deeply appreciate the fact that they'd rather die than spend time in a prison system they created. Or maybe that had a strong enough sense of shame to off themselves, like a samurai. I find that respectable too. I just appreciate them being held accountable. Side effects may vary.
