The simple philosophical answer for me is: if you murder someone because of a past deed, or threats of a future deed, you're denying human capacity to change. I personally feel, given the right circumstances, everyone has capacity to change, learn, grow, evolve. Pretty much every bad deed can be put down to humans being opportunistic, selfish, manipulative or backed into a corner. I imagine things would be very different if their needs were met and they were well educated. Most countries (at least in Europe) at least attempt to use the prison system for rehabilitation rather than expensive punitive measures and/or slavery.

Political answer: Trump should be in jail for many, many crimes, not dead.

Pretty good chippy combo. Ask the Canadians about it.

I've read this whole article and I still don't understand why the ammo is important?

Yeah, it is bad that the prosecution did not disclose it, but it was a manilla envelope of loose rounds handed over by a friend of the father of the armourer, who has already been convicted of manslaughter. I can see why they would deem it not to be relevant evidence.

How could it possibly help the defence (other than this exact situation where it got the case thrown out)?

Also why would it not just be a mistrial, rather than the case being thrown out to never be tried again?

This is the only one I saw on my all feed, clicked the community because I've not really paid attention to it and thought it was a funny pairing of pinned posts. If you don't see the irony, what are you even doing in a meme community.

Initially I thought it was just a normal cop and the joke works just as well.

Why would you convert the perfectly sensical units?

Addicted to reading drivel.

I wouldn't mind if my kids were glued to books all day, but newspaper opinion pieces should only be used as toilet paper.
