That case is way too political. Common sense has gone out of the window there.

Every time they ever move him around every cop in the area always seems to need to be involved. It's not like he's accused of slaughtering an entire precinct with nothing but his bare hands or anything, supposedly he shot one person with a gun that he obviously no longer has. I'm really not sure why they treat him as Hannibal lecter.

To convince the public he's guilty. It's one of the ways they skew the narrative.

Remember in the movie "SWAT" where that monster guy who entered the country illegal to kill the one guy and then offered money to get him out? That's Hollywood doing their part to put the idea in our minds that this kind of thing is warranted.

People do want to help Luigi and that scares the shit out of them too. They expected people's moral compass to make them side with the CEO he shot. But that's not what happened. The general public is very much pro Luigi.

The comic of all the insurance claims denied and labeling it “legal murder” does a good job explaining why the moral compass is with Luigi. Everyone knows a friend or friend of a friend who has been denied a claim that could help.

Because he has the audacity to kill a capitalist, instead of a fellow poor

This, they don't see you and me as people. We're lucky to be considered cattle in their views.

The farther you move up the ladder, the less they see us as human. "Human resources" says it all. We're just another resource to them, like coal, or water, or electricity. An input in their factory to achieve a product output. They don't care what happens to us while there, as long as we keep producing. They don't care what happens to us when we leave, as long as we don't sue them, or smear their name.

Zero fucking empathy for anyone but themselves, not even their own kids. They know what they're doing is terrible, that's why they're building bunkers. They fully expect us to turn on them at some point in the near future. That's why they surround themselves with boot-licking bodyguards.
