The man who firebombed the official residence of Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro pleaded guilty on Tuesday and was sentenced to 25 to 50 years, prosecutors said.
It’s weird to give politicians multi-million dollar mansions for free. It’s weirder to renovate the mansion for $1,900,000 from tax payer money while only increasing taxes on the lower and middle class. It’s weirder still that there is another $6,000,000 being stolen from tax funds again to fix his burnt down mansion now, while intentionally hiding where all of that renovation money went.
Are these state charges, or is trump gonna pardon him?
After the attack, Balmer called 911, identified himself and confessed, allegedly telling the dispatcher that Shapiro “needs to know that he ‘will not take part in his plans for what he wants to do to the Palestinian people.’”
Doubtful that he would be sympathetic to this type of domestic terrorism. Also not sure what the Governor of Pennsylvania has to do with Palestine.
He reportedly had mental health issues and had stopped taking his medication.
I think Shapiro is a shitty liberal Zionist, but there were politicians who actually had a role in the genocide if this was a sober minded political attack.
25-50 is a wide span, maybe they are hoping we get our prison system better and focus on rehabilitation in the next 15-20 years
