Osama, easy. He's a family man and would show absolute respect and kindness towards the child as is the custom of his religion and his culture.

He has nothing against children and has a big household with other kids mine can play with.

My child will also be damn safe there and get great food.

Such an easy contest.

I mean they were for like 40 years and in the end they got snitched out and took out by a seal team so, probably.

Bin Laden loved his kids. Part of the reason he moved to that compound in Pakistan was because he wanted his kids to have a semblance of a normal life. He's discuss politics with is Eldest daughters. When he was captured he was found asleep with his youngest son.

Western educated man who is pissed off at the US for abandoning his political ascension? Slightly better than a meth addicted turboracist, a crazy murderer, and a child molester. I doubt bin Laden is going to be able to do much opinion changing in a single evening and I doubt that he'd outright kill or molest them.

Bin Laden fathered 24 children, the first of which was with his first cousin when she was 16 and he was 17. They went on to have ten more children. The other 13 were spread amongst five other wives. They also found several beheading videos on his computer. He also believed muslims should kill any US civilians they find until the US withdraws support for Israel.

I think definitely killing and maybe molestation would be on the table.

He was a wealthy politician first, revolutionary like fifth. Shit, you're right, molestation is on the table.

Thankfully I'm not an American, so think my theoretical family would be more likely okay with him than the others.

Not even remotely close. I saw him first and before seeing the rest of the faces I already knew that this was an usian thing so he was going to be "a major evil".

Fact is, aside religion, we'd have a lot in common, including hating the US so, if any, it would give for an interesting evening for my kids and a more interesting post-evening chat with him.

The other 3, in my eyes, are way, waaaaaaaaaaaaaay worse.

21

The man had multiple wives and multiple kids. All of which where taken care of financially- so ya seconded

14

Bin Laden could be trusted because from what I know he never purposely wanted kids targeted. One murdered several children, one murdered too many to count in concentration camps as well as ordering soldiers to do it because he didn't see them as human. The last one was a sex pest and I wouldn't trust kids with.

Bin Laden would fuck then but at least he’d marry them first.

You must not know very much about Bin Laden. Give his Wikipedia articles a quick skim. Your kids wouldn't survive the night. If they survive an hour, it's because they decided to kill them slowly.

There is no question that she strangled them. The court is trying to determine whether she was sufficiently sane at the time to be held culpable.

Not according to one of the jurors:

"At the end of the day, there was so much doubt," the woman said. "The prosecution didn't have a figurative smoking gun. There was not a single moment throughout the presentation of that case where you could say 'Yup, 100% I'm certain she did it' or that she didn't do it. There was too much gray area."

https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/lindsay-clancy-juror-interview/

Couple that with the the sketchy findings about the husband's actions and whereabouts, there is indeed question and reasonable doubt.

2

This is a pretty bold take from you. I don't need GenAI to know who Hitler and Bin Laden are, but I googled the woman and P. Diddy as I am not from the US. I cannot tell if the news sites I googled are LLM generated though. I don't want to be mean but maybe you should work on your trust issues.

My three kids are in their 20's. Assuming there are no weapons involved, I'd say they're safe with any of them.

Bin Laden, Hitler, and Combs would each have a rough night. Lindsay would probably be ok. If necessary, they could restrain her without injuring her.

Osama bin Laden loved his kids. He was hard on them, for sure, he was basically what you imagine when you think of a deep south US prepper survivalist - a bit eccentric and paranoid, but intelligent - he would be taking his kids on long hikes, teaching them how to sleep in the desert with only sand as a blanket, but he did it out of a deep desire to protect them and give them skills to survive.

22

I'd pass the Nurnberg check, so Hitler would a solid first-round pick. It's a toss about who would gendercode my kids more between him and Bin Laden. Lindsay What's-Her-Name and P. Diddy are automatic no's.

Just leave them home alone.

Alternatively, you reckon Osama could teach them basic engineering skills? If they are making phone-activated landmines surely they can put up some fun RF experiments.

Woman who recently had a mistrial go viral for being the latest influencer courtroom case. Similar to Depp v Heard. The woman’s name is Lindsay Clancy, I believe.

Notable things (viewing this through the lens of my wife who told me about this case):

  • flimsy hard evidence against the mother
  • mother allegedly tried to kill herself 3 different ways after snapping and allegedly killing her children while the husband was out of the house
  • a lot of the evidence seemed to be hearsay from the husband
  • children’s bodies were cremated by the father
  • father is suspected of having a mistress because he moved on after this relatively quickly.
  • jury trial ended in a hung jury, because 1 juror tried to reverse “12 Angry Men” it to get all other jurors to switch to a Guilty verdict.
  • Clancy admitted to the murders initially

My unsolicited opinion is that she very likely did commit the crimes, but the State has insufficient evidence to convict due to the police’s negligence during their investigation.

Lindsay Clancy

She admitted to the murders, but is pleading insanity.

29
lemmy.world

also this guy is spreading lies. the evidence is clear she did it, and she confessed. there was no despute as to her guilt in murdering her children.

the issue is whether she can be held criminally liable for first degree murder. if the charges had been manslaughter or something else, it would have been a slam dunk conviction. but due to her mental state at the time, it's questionable if she was capable/committed first degree, or premeditated, murder.

but people don't want to talk about the legal issues in the case... they just want to push the emotional bullshit that she was absolutely innocent, or absolutely guilty, and there can't be anything in-between. and lots and lots of people like the db0 user commenting here are spreading lies about the case to push their political agenda.

to the point that many of the TikTok moms who support her innocence are working entirely outside of the factual evidence of the case. which is also more evidence of how social media itself is causing psychosis in many folks, as it's well-documented already how social media amplifies delusional and paranoid thinking.

TheMinionsreply
lemmy.dbzer0.com

I was pretty explicit, I think she did it and the state lacks evidence to convict beyond the shadow of doubt.

Sorry if the db0 in my username added some political leaning to my above post. I was trying to be pretty by the numbers as best as I knew.

I didn’t even mention the fact that there’s been a giant push for people to claim that the father committed the murders. It’s pretty far out there for claims.

I know another comment some issues with the way her specific state handles insanity pleas. Of that, I am not too in the know about. So I didn’t mention it.

4

What the state lacks evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt is that she was sufficiently sane to be held criminally liable at the time of the murders in the state of Massachusetts. That last bit is important because it's the only state where the prosecution has to prove sanity rather than the defense having to prove insanity.

Personally I suspect she's not guilty by reason of insanity, but I'm not certain I'd feel that way beyond a reasonable doubt were I on the trial. And it seems a large portion of people are of the opinion neither side managed to clear the bar of reasonable doubt

How is the husband gtfoing indicative of a mistress or relevant to the question of whether the wife was sane at the time of the murders?

Having people close enough to take you in when your nutso spouse commits triple homicide is not a red flag or a cause to cast doubt on where the guilt lies

I don't have a mistress but if my wife killed 3 family members, I'm sure I could find someone to give me a place to crash to get away

  • Flimsy hard evidence against the mother

(your first bullet)

Is absolutely untrue and makes it sound like you are trying to cast doubt on the case in weird ways based on all your subsequent points.

This isn’t “Making of a Murder” , no matter how many podcasts you heard. Extremely clear cut case from an evidentiary perspective, so much so neither side argued the evidence AT ALL

Honestly, as much as this surprises me, but from those 4 options, my kids would probably be safest with hitler. I assume the first woman is the one that just killed her 3 kids, so that's a fundamental NOPE, diddy, yeah nah, that guy is just weird. So it boils down to the islamic terrorist and the cocaine-addicted, so I'd just give it hitler and hope he has a good day without thaaaaat much cocaine.

Bottom right is P Diddy aka Puff Daddy aka Sean Combs. Known for, among other things: helping more talented musicians than himself make good music, dating J-Lo, playing in a Muppets movie, rape parties, domestic violence, guest appearance on Notorious B.I.G's track Mo Money Mo Problems, potentially ordering the hit on 2pac's life, being a general piece of shit with tons of connections and money. He was like the Hip-Hop world's Epstein, though I don't remember if the "performers" at the Diddy Parties were children or adult women, they were definitely getting raped though.

Like those two Americans are so bad that between these 4 people... I'd be most likely to trust bin Laden. In this very hypothetical scenario, because this is a shitpost and in reality if I can't find a sitter and I get to choose between these 4, well guess what, I'm just cancelling my plans and staying home. Might be a tie between bin Laden and Hitler actually, we're not Jewish, Roma or any other minority he tried exterminating.

I believe you don’t understand how Hitler’s mind worked. He was clearly pro-life, just not pro-every-life. Similar to what happens on a daily basis in a lot of countries. Ethnic cleansing was done because of ethnicity, not because of age.

Also about the concentration camps, I don’t know enough about this part. Was it a clear order and idea of Hitler? Or was the idea to get rid of jews, but the infrastructure was not ready for this amount of people, and thus someone like Goebbels brought the idea of just getting rid of them locally? I remember reading somewhere that at the beginning, they tried to deport the people, but soon realized they were not able to do that in a timely manner.

PS: I had to puke a little describing Hitler as pro-life under the circumstances, unfortunately it is technocally right. He loved people, also children. Just hated jews.

Natanoxreply
discuss.tchncs.de

You took my reply way too seriously.

I'm not a historian so I can't really debate this. Of course Hitler was selectively pro-life, the whole nazi shit is exactly that (and why many back then didn't want to see what happened initially - after all the Nazis gave white people "Kraft durch Freude" and holidays for their first time). Same crap happens in the USA right now, and of course many other countries. Though fortunately for democratic US-citizens still fighting the Trump regime is far less competent than the OG Nazis.

"kid-friendly" is a term encompassing all kids though. If you're unfriendly to some kids you're not kid-friendly. This applies to nazis, racists, religious assholes, ableists etc. all alike.

The Wannsee Conference didn't contain Hitler, but did include many higher ups making the explicit plans for the Shoah. It wasn't Hitler's first plan, deportation was, but any reasonable understanding of his long term plans would require eventual extermination. He was invading places he had sent Jewish people to.

Also non-Jewish victims didn't get the attempted deportation. Disabled Germans, criminals, communists, queer people, etc faced brutal prison labor and eventually extermination.

Ultimately, Hitler didn't give orders in a way where you can say "he ordered this to happen". He made his desires clear, and let the party vie for his favor. Had they not orchestrated the Shoah, party members would have been replaced with those who would

Your “Yes” made me suspicious. As expected, it is not a clear yes. Historians are not sure what exactly happened. What they know is, that there were many people part of this whole genocide. Heinrich Himmler was responsible for building Dachau, the first concentration camp. Many others were involved afterwards.

Hitler most likely knew about all of this and let it happen. But it is not known if there was ever a clear order from Hitler, or if it was suggested by someone else.

People murder their children every 5 days in America. That means that 265 people have wiped out their families since Casey killed her kids. In almost all cases, the father is the perpetrator. Do you know the names, or faces of any of those hundreds of men?

Casey killed her kids because she was nuts. Not even the prosecution disputes this.

Not speaking for them, as I don't know exactly what they meant. But I suspect they meant misogyny in the sense that the ratio of female to male coverage of similar scenarios playing out would lead you to assume there would be an equal amount of male father killing his children coverage, but we don't see that reflected in reality.

I suspect that's the media's fault more than anything else.

The case is heavily publicized because 1) many woman relate to a lack of postpartum support in this country and 2) the not guilty by reason of insanity plea which hinges on a 18 minute psychotic break resulting in three murders and is inconsistent with current medical understanding of postpartum psychosis.

The question is whether they'll be able to offset the blame onto the medical establishment and answer seems to be yes, as it seems several of the medical professionals involved in her case may be successfully sued for malpractice.

Within the medical community the case has already changed the practice of many clinicians relating to post partum psychiatric care unfortunately being less likely to be accepted by a practice (and referred to often scarcely available specialized centers) or the threshold to institutionalize patients against their will is now lower given the concern that they may be a danger to their community and that any criminal act theyay engage in could be later framed on their treatment team.

it's a huge case because it's a proxy for the gender war and extremists on both sides have trumpted it as loud as they possibly can. like the bozos here pushing false claims about the evidence.

most normal folks think she's nuts and should be jailed like anyone else who kills her kids.

the insane people think she should be set free and isn't guilty, even though she confessed and all the evidence is clear she did the crime. and many of them claim it was the dad that did it because only men can be evil, and if she did do it, he forced her to do it with psychic powers.

the subtle of court case, whether she is criminally liable for her actions, is completely lost the vast majority of folks, especially the insane people.
