    Why is this law not being applied to the Jan 6 treasonists. People were killed they should all be tried for it.

      the system isn’t broken, it works exactly as intended. the system doesn’t need to be fixed, it needs to be replaced.

    Without reading the article, the felony murder rule is just. You commit a crime and it escalates and someone dies, that’s on you.

      And because you didn’t read the article you miss context and derail the conversation with a strawman argument.

      Its incredibly easy to peer pressure teenagers into doing stupid stuff without having them consider the consequences.

      Especially if they are part of a marginalized community and they observe crimes on a daily basis.

        Which is why trying minors as adults is unjust.

        Felony murder rule is just because instead of judgement based on intent alone, it also bases the punishment on the unintended consequences of the criminal act.
