We are to look upon it as more beneficial, that many guilty persons should escape unpunished, than one innocent person should suffer. The reason is, because it’s of more importance to community, that innocence should be protected, than it is, that guilt should be punished; for guilt and crimes are so frequent in the world, that all of them cannot be punished; and many times they happen in such a manner, that it is not of much consequence to the public, whether they are punished or not.
But when innocence itself, is brought to the bar and condemned, especially to die, the subject will exclaim, it is immaterial to me, whether I behave well or ill; for virtue itself, is no security. And if such a sentiment as this, should take place in the mind of the subject, there would be an end to all security what so ever.John Adams (1735–1826) American lawyer, Founding Father, statesman, US President (1797–1801)

Of course, no #apocalypse is complete without the #Oligarchs. But this one is just unforgivable! They want to #plunder in #peace, while people die! And they walk so nonchalantly in our sights.
Do you realize that their #crime is worse than any #war_crime or any #crime_against_humanity? What punishments befit #murders, #massacres and #genocides? This is much worse than all of them. It's a #mass_extinction event! Where do we draw the line? What #punishment do they deserve?

A quotation from La Rochefoucauld
Our repentance is not so much regret for the evil we have done, as fear of its consequences to us.
[Notre repentir n’est pas tant un regret du mal que nous avons fait, qu’une crainte de celui qui nous en peut arriver.]François VI, duc de La Rochefoucauld (1613-1680) French epigrammatist, memoirist, noble
Réflexions ou sentences et maximes morales [Reflections; or Sentences and Moral Maxims], ¶180 (1665-1678) [ed. Gowens (1851), ¶187]Sourcing, notes, other translations: wist.info/la-rochefoucauld-fra…
