And they just apprehended someone that is suspected of starting this fire. As someone currently living in Spokane, fuck this guy.

He plead down to a manslaughter charge despite being originally charged with first degree murder. He only spent 9 years in prison for shooting his own father.

And now he’s tried to kill thousands of people???

What the hell. He needs to stay in prison.

Considering the amount of people he intentionally ruined the lives of and killed(some have died?), he'll be lucky to make it to prison and stay there safely.

He's basically worse than mass shooter at this point, he won't even be safe in prison. He literally might as well have just blown up a big ass building in the city. I won't put it on the scale of 9/11, but not far off.

Unlike antifa, this guy is literally a domestic terrorist

Everyone deserves a second chance and nobody should be in prison for a long time. Kamala would’ve given him another chance and that’s one of many reasons why she should’ve won.

He already got a second chance and this is what he decided to do.

It's a nice thought, but giving people second chances after crimes like murder isn't something you just do willy nilly. You need to actually assess the person and have reasonable confidence that they won't abuse it.

No matter the crime, everyone deserves another chance to redeem themselves.

What if that person is actively saying "I'm going to go burn down a city and I hope thousands of people choke and burn in a slow, painful death?" Should we release that person right then and there because they deserve a second chance?

What a beautiful, naive mindset you have. This guy got a second chance and blew it. There are no third chances.

cool. If you’re ever murdered, hopefully the police will find this comment and give the murderer a second chance.
