While being escorted into the courthouse for an extradition hearing, Mangione broke into an outburst at the assembled journalists.

Luigi Mangione shouts a message to the American people on his way to court:

“This is completely unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people and their lived experience.”

    Maybe the (mostly) professionalism from other countries has poisoned my mind and the police should indeed treat everyone as vermin.

      Whether they treat you professionally or not is irrelevant to the fact that their primary mission is upholding the state.

        They are there to enforce the law and serve citizens. They are public servants. But in the US they are mostly there to protect the state and uphold their own ideals, yes.

        However I was pointing out the lack of proper training, they immediately rush to get physical and grab the suspect by the neck as soon as they get a chance.
