threatening does not mean an attack or battery on a person. threatening with words does not warrant death. IF so, 3/4 of Twitter should be executed for threats. This means every heated argument with a threat can result in murder.
“A forensic pathologist hired by the defense testified that Neely died from a combination of his schizophrenia, synthetic marijuana, sickle cell trait and the struggle from being in Penny’s restraint.”
I have not seen threats by anyone here other than the maga that visit for arguments. Please point out those making threats who aren't part of the cult. Thank you.
I think the verdict was appropriate. I don’t believe Mr Penny intentionally took Mr Neelys life.
I understand what it’s like to be in a train when someone is acting aggressive and threatening. New York should do better to take people who need mental health services off the streets.
Good. These charges should have never been brought in the first place. In a serious country, Daniel Penny would be honored for protecting his fellow Americans.
The part where the jury thinks that homicide is justifiable for homeless people who make a verbal stink on subways. I don't have a problem with restraint when its needed, but murder was not necessary in order to restrain.
I don't think it's fair to compare him to Rittenhouse. Rittenhouse traveled somewhere to kill. Penny was just riding the subway. They're not the same. Comparing them diminishes Rittenhouse's guilt.
Past behavior predicts future outcomes, Jordan Neely had 42 arrests under his belt including assault, and kidnapping a 7 year old girl. Penny, on the other hand had no intention of actually killing Neely, just protecting the other passengers from a violent criminal openly threatening harm.
Neely was asked multiple times to stop his selfish and irrational behavior before Penny choked him to death.
Not at all unlike how Brian Thompson was asked by courts and consumers to stop his selfish and irrational behavior before Luigi put him out of his misery.

Also not surprised by the jury given how MAGA NYC is.

He'll need one.
I hope Penny is hounded for the rest of his days on par with Rittenhouse.

Fox, Kirk, Rogan, OAN and Jones are already reaching out, supposedly.
