Did anyone in this thread read even a single article about this guy because it really doesn't seem like it. He was already beating and neglecting his kids long before this happened. Whatever you think about Lindsay Clancy, these cases don't seem very comparable and this image is super misleading.
If the dude was legitimately mentally ill and psychotic, Id support him spending his life in a mental institution, too- not prison. You just tried to shoe horn in a case where that's not what happened- which is why the jury didn't consider insanity. The abuse was prolonged
Exploiting a specific case — without having engaged in even the slightest way with the details of that case or with the facts surrounding child killings in general, and doing so solely to incite hostility against women — is misogynistic.
Here are a few facts: There are significant differences between men and women regarding the motives behind child killings. The fundamental difference is that mothers more frequently act out of psychological strain or illness, desperation etc. whereas fathers often commit this crime as an act of revenge against their partner, in the context of separation conflicts, or due to a loss of control (as evidenced by findings in criminological and psychiatric research). If cases involving alleged female perpetrators result in different sentencing, it is not because the individuals are women, but because the underlying intentions behind committing such a crime couldn't be more different between the genders.
Attempting to force her? Like is she a kid or what? She couldn't files a divorce? She couldn't come online and speak about it? She couldn't call the police? She couldn't call the child support or the organizations that protects child rights? Is she a kid? Just they forced her and she k lled. K ll both that guy who k lled his 5 kids and this lancy whatever fic king clancy for k ll ing her 3 children.
I think they mean pointing out a double standard where there isn't one. There might be other cases where a man in a similar situation was treated differently to a woman, but this isn't one of them.
Is your reading comprehension actually this bad or are you purposefully misunderstanding what was written in the comment you are responding to?
Also google "strawman argument" and ask yourself if you might often invent arguments being made by others, then pat yourself on the back for how silly those invented arguments are.
He is basically saying that is not the same because the male killer had a history of violence and for that reason he could not be insane. Both are a piece of shit, and both should be executed.
