So much nicer than a prison sentence!
So you commit four murders–that’s right: four murders–you confess to them, you took four lives… and what does the government do?
Oh, well, it’s obvious! They set you up in a nice little business at the public’s expense!
They don’t expect you to spoil everything by pistol-whipping your customers; but old habit die hard, don’t they?
I dunno, I’m not an expert. It just seems unjust, somehow, to make the taxpayers pay to have a multiple murderer set up in his own nice restaurant. If he’d killed more people, would the feds have bought him an apartment building?
This is one of those rare occasions where I am at a loss for words. Sometimes there are situations which are hard to deal with, such as trading immunity from prosecution in exchange for testimony that will bring down the masterminds behind greater crime, but excusing murder?
“isn’t it one of the first things they teach you in business school–not to pistol-whip your customers?”
Just another practical tip that I’ve added to my fund of knowledge. Now I know why my dog-walking business never took off. 🙂
I hesitate to ask whether it was the dogs or their owners who fell afoul of the pistol-whipping.
(“Fell afoul”??? I think I’ve been reading too much Violet Crepuscular.)
Both, sort of. 🙂
Do you mean “falafel”?
Or maybe “farfel.”
