Eh, you still labeled the dude as an asshole for something he did 25 years ago.

I did some asshole'ish things in highschool (granted I never assaulted anyone) but I'd like to think I'm not an asshole to this day.

I still think he's an asshole for being able to do those things at all but I'm going to claim he isn't capable of change or is the EXACT same person he was because one: that's silly and two: I don't know him.

Ah, this is why he is able to play Don Drapor so well.

"He never paid for it"

Wow, so rehabilitation doesn't matter for some, it really is all about the punishment.

How do you consider Malcom X one of America's greatest citizens? Seriously

He spoke truth to power and challenged the status quo- despite surveillance, harassment, and death threats. Was a freedom fighter and Pan-Africanist who gave his people a sense of pride and advocated self-defense. How is he not one of the greatest Americans?

The world isn't fair. Those who live on the right path are foolish to be envious of those who succeeded at escaping punishment, though. Living right is its own reward.

It's really about being punished forever for poor choices for some, whereas others believe in forgiveness.

Look at the criminal justice system in the us.

Despite all evidence to the to contrary, yes, people still believe that locking someone up and throwing away the key is the awnser to everything. Then when they get out they can't even become a janitor once someone pings their background.

But hey, "they're paying for what they did" and all, I guess...

IIT: People that "were" horrible in their youth vs people that are smart enough to know not to do disgusting things at any age in life.

But hey, EVERY1 LIT PPL ON FIRE AND BEAT OTHERS SEVERLEY AS A 'KID' GET OVER IT! Hurr hurr durr

Yes, people change into upstanding citizens when they age (sometimes) but I dont see how any of you are able to say "no ones making excuses for what he did ....but (insert idiotic kids will b kids excuse here)

Lol and what do you people want!!! He got a slap on the wrist jeez!

This mind set is all akin to the extremely toxic "boys will be boys" mentality.
