just because I want Stephen Miller hunted down & tried like a nazi after the fall of Berlin

[KG]

doesn't mean I'm bitter...

[Sherman A1]

1. I believe that you are being both restrained and practical

And it is something that needs to be done.

[vlyons]

2. Justice is a virtue!

Aristotle and Cicero both wrote about the virtue of justice. Even the Dalai Lama has written that righteous anger in response to injustice can be beneficial in correcting injustice for the benefit of others.

There's nothing to be bitter about. We can harness the energy of righteous anger in the pursuit of justice. And so we should.

Justice is a virtue!

[Bernardo de La Paz]

13. If nothing else justice has a deterrent effect. No trial for Nixon meant no deterrence. . . . nt

[dhol82]

14. And see what we got when we didn't go after Bush/Cheney for war crimes

[scuciti]

17. Pelosi

And to a large extent responsibility for that failure has to fall on Nancy Pelosi who adamantly refused to impeach Bush over the Iraq war.

[dhol82]

18. I think it was more Obama doing a kumbaya moment

He really tried to calm everybody down and have a bipartisan government.
We didn't get it.

[wnylib]

22. I think Pelosi and Obama were both

concerned about the nation as a whole and not making the polarization worse. Plus, whether they had the political backing in Congress and the public to succeed.

[PatrickforO]

3. I'm good with that!

Miller is just like Heydrich. A fanatical white supremacist. And he IS IN FACT guilty of crimes against humanity - at least 10,000 counts, and 545 counts of genocide.

[captain queeg]

4. I could very easily picture Miller in an SS uniform

I’d like to see him in a Nuremberg type trial. He’d go full Himler if he was allowed.

[wnylib]

23. Physically, he resembles Eichmann.

[Ziggysmom]

5. I wonder if his own child will sleep in a cage?

[agingdem]

6. I'm bitter as hell and I want revenge...

I want to physically hurt that vile piece of putrid flesh...I want death by a thousand cuts (literally)..one stab for every family ripped apart, every caged baby, every orphaned child, every muslim denied entry...I want agonizing pain but still breathing when I throw his reptilian carcass into an unmarked grave...and that still wouldn't be enough...

[nebby70]

10. ... feel better now?....

... I hear you; and there's a whole bunch of me that feels that way and can envision worse retribution ....
... Trump is vile; but his mental illness and constant circle of enablers is the cause ...
... Miller is - I have no word - a complete puzzle for me: his background is at odds of his violent/vicious/venom ...
... having said that - would you be able to look at yourself in the mirror if you went this route? ...
... we need to put our efforts into ways to squash his influence and zero-out his power ...
... perhaps, you will say that my approach is why we Dems always end up with the sticky end of the stick; but I believe vile people thrive in anger filled marketplaces - and we aren't (and should never be) vile. ...

... hang in there; work off some of this negative energy and get ready to work on... we can make it better only if our efforts are to make improvements not take revenge. If John Lewis could forgive those who beat and nearly killed him, we can try to do the same.

20. I'm ok with torturous death...

my parents were Holocaust survivors ..Auschwitz.. so I'm somewhat familiar with pure evil and Miller is pure evil..my parents were never big on forgiveness and neither am I...

7. Whoever made the policy decision on kids in cages

and had Trump sign off on it, deserves serious jail time. Just like waterboarding imho. Except this - think about this - targeted not our alleged enemies, but children and their poor families. Total moral failure. You'd call it war crimes if we were at war and any participant engaged in such behavior. It's systemic child abuse. To the poor children, it is torture, psychological as well as physical.

What I haven't heard in all the reporting on this is any indication that the children were well cared for, that social workers were looking after their mental health and development, that nannies were involved. All I saw on the news was cement floors, blankets, and chain link fence pens and cages.

Serious jail time. The Hague. Don't let them lie their way out of this one.

[wnylib]

24. War crimes charge doesn't fit, but

crimes against humanity are a perfect fit.

Needs to be a very public trial and conviction in the name of justice. The US does not recognize the validity of trials at The Hague. It's better maybe that we own this one ourselves and atone for it as a nation.

[Brainfodder]

8. Does the Ceaușescu treatment work for ya?

Not bitter, furious.

[KG]

12. up against the wall, motherfuckers.

[ProfessorGAC]

9. Justice Is A Bitter Pill

For the perpetrators.
It's not you that's bitter.

[griloco]

11. Nuremberged...?

[Bernardo de La Paz]

16. Nurumbergers are almost as tasty as hamberders! . . . . nt

[griloco]

26. 😆

[hatrack]

15. Just remember: you are a GOOD person!

[Lonestarblue]

19. His crimes may not be prosecutable because they were "advice."

But whoever hires him for his next job needs to be boycotted if possible. The Heritage Foundation will likely find a spot for him since they hate democracy.

[wnylib]

25. There were Nazi criminals who

gave advice. No excuses for being "only" the inventor of a policy and not the one to actually carry it out. What about conspiring, abetting, accomplice charges?

[FailureToCommunicate]

21. "Which would you care to shed first...?"

"Blood and Honor"

[JudyM]

27. I'm afraid he's still brewing evil in the wings, pulling trump's strings.

[moondust]

28. Paging Ben Ferencz.

[WyattKansas]

29. Wouldn't it be funny if the tRUMP Klan had to go hide out in a Central American country?

A poor one that doesn't have many conveniences and they are stuck out in the boonies in hiding, similar to what the Nazis did in South America.
