So if one criminal gets released without a punishment, we should release a bunch of other criminals without a punishment? I think this makes about as much sense as saying that if an innocent person gets unfairly executed, we should execute all innocent people to make it fair.
The precedent would be established by Lindsay Clancy that, "mental illness" lets you get away with murder.
It's not the precedent that I want to set. But if women want to keep rape illegal, then just kill Lindsay Clancy for murder. I don't like setting bad precedents, but if a bad precedent is set, then I will want that precedent to be carried out to a very powerful extent and if the precedent sucks, then repeal it. It's similar with gerrymandering; the dems were against it, the GOP endorsed it, Abby from Virginia is like, "I'm anti gerrymandering, but if yall insist that gerrymandering is fine, then I'll gerrymander 10x harder". I'm fine with Abigail doing that because I'm indifferent about gerrymandering; but the OP was basicly saying, "Femenists; be careful of the precedent you set."
