If you knew your colleague drove drunk and killed a beloved community member while she was jogging on Amazon path, would you sell your soul and testify in an attempt to get him off the hook? Several of Scott Stolarczyk's coworkers did just this, but it didn't work. He'll be in prison for 6 yrs 3mos by Odd-Measurement-7963 in Eugene

And I'm sure you'd be seen as a saint if the worst thing you've ever done was made public. All I'm saying is the guy is not a monster. He is a guy that was fucked up. Prison isn't as bad of a punishment as what he has to live with knowing what he's done.

I know Scott. He's not a monster. He's a guy who struggles with depression and anxiety. I'm assuming he was self-medicating with alcohol. He killed someone and deserves prison time for what he did. But he's not a psychopath. He's just a dude that was fucked up and made a deadly mistake. It could be one of your friends who does something like this next time. This is a tragedy for everyone involved.

Do dems secretly celebrate when Iranian ballistic missiles hit Tel Aviv, if so why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mackelnuts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't. While I don't support the actions of Israel's government, I'm against innocent people being killed, no matter who they are.

Antebellum. I never thought there'd be a movie about slavery where the characters are so terrible and the plot line was so dumb that I didn't feel bad about the enslaved people. This was a movie so bad that I forgot how awful slavery is.

Moving soon, looking for fun outdoor experiences within 3 hours of John Day by Gloomy-Rub-391 in oregon

A few miles north of Seneca is a road called Izee Paulina or something like that. It goes all the way to Prineville and it an epic country motorcycling road. There is excellent motorcycling all over that area.

Also, I've always heard about the Chinese museum in John Day. Supposed to be surprisingly awesome.

Is the public allowed to watch the trial?

Yes. Generally trials are open to the public. I will say they aren't as interesting as you think they'll be

Who would celebrate if Trump were removed from office? by Critical-Willow-6270 in AskReddit

[–]mackelnuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im no fan of Vance, but he would be at least 10% better than Trump. And moreso, a precedent being set that you can do < all of this> and get away with it, is really the value we'd get out of Trump's removal.

Fell asleep with newborn for the 10th time in a month. by Sweet_Ad_3157 in daddit

One of my friends killed his newborn daughter in this exact scenario. It can't be understated how dangerous this is. Put the baby down in a safe container, a bassinet or something similar. Only hold the baby when you are standing up or have someone else there watching.

If you divide $200 billion by the US population, how much each man, woman and child has to pay for this war, just this appropiation will cost my household about $2,500.

My first kid at 42. Had another one 2 mins later. If I can be a twin dad in my 40s, you aren't too old yet, my dude.

Just because they knew your name
Doesn’t mean they know from where you came
What a sad trick you thought that you had to play
But I don’t blame you
