Would that be justice?

[liberty]

This man, when he was 19, pushed an Asian grandfather face‑first onto the sidewalk and caused his death. He was originally charged with murder but was convicted of manslaughter. The judge sentenced him to probation.

However, the family can still sue for wrongful death. That would mean, among other things, that his wages could be garnished to a certain extent, making him a slave to that debt for years to come, maybe for life.

So do you think the family should sue, and would that be justice? Has justice been done, and how much money is an 84‑year‑old Asian man's life worth?

If it was my grandfather, I would sue. I would consider the award to be social justice because I am a communist.

I vote sue. And I would place the grandfather's "value" as about equal to mine or yours or anyone else - i.e. immeasurable

Well, if you’re actually a communist, I can’t have much sympathy for you. If you really believe in that ideology, then you’ve supported doing the same things, or worse, to other people a hundred million times over

If it had been YOUR 84-year-old grandfather, would you be asking these same silly questions?   Hell, you'd have probably been holding out for "Murder-1" and the death penalty from the get-go, and demanded to be the one to flip the switch or push the button on the chair or the chamber or the injection machine when the time came.
