They earnestly wanted to livestream shooting a defenseless man in a wheelchair for entertainment. They still want to shoot him btw, just without a camera rolling.

This shit's nothing in comparison.

    hey he (supposedly) didn't know the guy was in a wheelchair and only stopped with the livestream because it would ruin the spectacle. i don't see a firing squad as any worse than other methods of execution (and it's preferable to some for the recipient) the problem is that it's the united states doing it.

    That's what I mean, if this was a case of Joe Shmo Civilian dying during the opening ceremonies of a random football game (even though the average football game is already a militarized propaganda event but ignore that for now) it would be horrifying to hear the game went ahead with barely a delay, but it was a member of the military eating shit and dying before the Most Military Football Game they hold so it just ends up being yet another perfect encapsulation of america
