  1. Yeah, I haven’t been as negative on Agyemang as this thread has been.

    He was fucking terrible last night.
     

    Also Luna running down that dogshit pass and making something out of nothing is exactly the hustle/heart the team desperately needs.

    The victims’ families will suffer everyday for the rest of their lives

    Agreed 

    I don’t think the death penalty is a mental health curative.  I have some big issues with the state taking someones life.  At the end of the day I think it should apply to cases like this.  I watched about 3 min of the hearing the other day and had to turn it off because it was literally making me nauseous.  BK is the definition of evil.

    Agreed with this. Lock him up forever and throw away the key. Be done with it. Don't have to deal with 20 years of appeals, etc.

    Counterpoint:  Now the families have to deal with 30-40 years of expose/interview/tell-all media endeavors that rub salt in their wounds till they die.

     

    If they could stick him in a deep dark hole and court order gag the media then you'd be spot-on.  That can't happen.

    Luna has the makings a guy who is an ace for a national team, but pro career ceiling might be the eredivisie.   But that hamster is fun as hell to watch for the Nats.  

    Agreed.  Thats really why club pedigree shouldn’t be the end all, be all criteria for a short schedule tournament national team.

    We'll see. Depth isn't bad. I just worry about Luna against more physical D and as a defender himself. Guatemala is a favorable matchup for him b/c of their lack of size. 

    McKennie has a fuckton more experience against elite players. 

    I’ll take Luna’s energy and passion over McKennie’s apathy and blubber

     

    Best of both worlds is the competition puts a fire under McKennies ass, I’m pessimistic and guess he turtles

    I agree with both of these statements, so I'm simply adding to this with no intention of being contrary. 

    Setting aside the ethics of the death penalty in general, the notion that it is what's best for the survivors/families has been largely debunked. 

    There's plenty of data out there that victims' loved ones, even those who support the death penalty and want it for the perpetrator, find no solace in it once it's done.   Most of the time, it merely drags the case out for years, or even decades, delaying any closure and extending the grieving process for an insanely long time.   I know I would likely want the death penalty were I ever in those shoes, and I completely understand the impulse. Still, I hope that I would be able to find a sliver of rationality about it in the moment and recognize that the death penalty is ultimately just further punishment for the surviving victims than it is anything else.  The main reason we have the death penalty at all is to satisfy the vengeance lust of the community at large.  We know it doesn't deter crime, it doesn't bring peace to the victims' families, and it doesn't serve the state's needs from a financial perspective or any other perspective.  Setting aside any moral/ethical discussion, there aren't any rational arguments for the death penalty that hold water. 

    The nations in red on this map are the ones with an active death penalty.  We can draw some pretty obvious conclusions from it in terms of what factors drive the desire for the death penalty, both from the perspective of the state and its citizens.

    My hang-up is that he's going to grant a sit down to every single network, streaming platform and true crime podcaster that reaches out to him. You can tell from this guy's detached demeanor that he's going to speak at length about the minutiae with whomever wants to listen. 1 to 2 more generations of these four families are going to have to listen to this dipshit. His Dateline/48 Hours/2020 episodes will run in perpetuity on the MRDR!!! network. Books, podcasts out the ass...
