Bro literally read my comment. I said I do not condone “the extrajudicial murder of almost anyone”. Also have you ever watched the news ever in your life? Or known someone who has been sexually assaulted? Give me a fucking break. Do a simple Google search if you can actually read.

Do you have any stats to back up what you are saying, because “grossly under sentenced” is a pretty vague statement.

Regardless though, your alternative is, rather than change the laws to create stricter sentencing for sexual assault, is to empower random people to murder people in the streets, without a trial by jury?

Don’t forget that the train ride is much easier than a drive and doesn’t feel the same. Yes, it’s a longer round trip but the trip is being expensed. If they move farther south, the additional car expenses (gas/maintenance/mileage) will be significantly higher and out of their own pocket.

>But my registration for the two years will be fine though? Like my plates wouldn’t show up as failing emissions and I would get pulled over for not passing?

Yeah, reg. will be fine. I also posted a link you can read. I forget how much it was, but there used to be a maximum amount you could spend on repair, and they'd give you a waiver if you still failed..

Doing quite well, thanks for caring. Government buildings and non-profits are exempt from property taxes. About 59% of Hartford's property isn't taxed due to this, including the hospitals. In theory, PILOT would compensate for this, but in addition to undervaluing property it has never been fully funded.

I understand this sentiment but whatever side of the political spectrum you are on sexual predators of every kind are grossly under-sentenced even in very public cases. I don’t support the extrajudicial murder of almost anyone - but that opinion has nothing to do with believing that our legal system will deliver them to justice and I would never encourage someone else to believe that either.
