Daniel penny murdered a poor, black person. Luigi mangione killed a rich, white one. Maybe my perception of America is wrong, but I bet it's not.

- OutOfHere 2y agoHere's the truth about the person you refer to (Jordan Neely), straight from his Wikipedia article: > Neely had an extensive criminal record, including 42 arrests on charges including petty larceny, jumping subway turnstiles, theft, and three unprovoked assaults on women in the subway between 2019 and 2021 > Another witness heard Neely say, "Someone is going to die today."[3] Penny said that Neely repeatedly threatened to kill other passengers.[10] Vázquez said that Neely was frightening but had not assaulted anyone.[6] Other witnesses said that Neely made "half-lunge movements" at other passengers and was within "half a foot of people", and recalled fearing for their lives.[3][11] A mother with a child testified that Neely charged at passengers, and she shielded herself and her child behind a stroller, believing she might die.[12] He most definitely was a threat to the entire Subway car. The system failed him by not putting him in a mental asylum a long time ago. The Subway system is now this de facto mental asylum, but violent threats are not tolerable.
