Poor Luigi can access legal aid if he and his wealthy family are unable or unwilling to pay for his defense. All of that money being donated could feed thousands of people in real need. The sad fact is that if every homeless or hungry person looked like Luigi, there would no longer be an issue with homelessness and hunger.

+ DrownedBoy Posted February 25 Posted February 25 Without being explicitly political, I do wonder if New Yorkers are feeling like their legal system is being manipulated by the current administration. I can see that becoming a factor at the trial when the federal charges come through.

I saw a show the other night about Mangione, and I wouldn't be surprised if there are some serious mental health issues at play. Killing the CEO has done nothing to help those who continue to be harmed by the insurance industry. Even in the short term, it won't improve anything for anyone. It's really too bad that Mangioni was not able to focus his efforts on effecting systemic change. With his intellect and his experiences with the health care system, I think he could have done a lot of good for a lot of people by fighting the system through non-violent means. But he chose a course of action that will not profit anyone except the lawyers who defend him. It's such a sad, sad, waste. pubic_assistance and Peter Eater 1 1

I think there are mental health issues at play, but I don't think they could excuse his behaviour or render him not criminally responsible for his actions.

From the link: "But despite the lack of evidence, the mere thought that the sex tapes might exist has sent some people online into a frenzy about them." Just another non-story to keep it alive and people expecting something relevant to happen. BTW, shouldn't we call it something other than sex tapes? Tapes are a little, like, obsolete. Just sayin'.

I believe this is where many people are coming from who fetishize Mangione. He's handsome for sure...but his vigilantism additionally turns him into a sort of night-in-shining armor to the middle class. Personally, I think he's hot as hell...and we all know that hot people get a pass in many things in life. soloyo215 and + DrownedBoy 1 1

I trust Karen Friedman Agnifilo, her comments. The sex tape reporting is sketchy. When I think about the Las Vegas shooter, an old guy, and how many died, that someone like Mangione gets so much attention compared to the Las Vegas shooter, maybe we all need to think twice about the Internet environment we spend time, and whether we are clicking through to the slimy content. + azdr0710 1

Most of the major news outlets have taken to printing rumors over the last ten years. The entire media industry has shifted from print to online which has changed traditional business models. The answer has been to rely mostly on advertising income and "click-bait" is utilized to draw viewers. Sensationalism is the tool that gets everyone to "click". + azdr0710, + José Soplanucas, thomas and 1 other 3 1
