Luigi's response to a letter he received from a woman whose daughter had been screwed around by UHC.

12/29/24

Dear Karen,

Your letter is the first to make me tear up. I am so, so sorry for what you and your daughter so senselessly had to endure.

Pictures sent via mail are photocopied in a blurry black and white, but if you use ("Free Prints" app) you are able to send one in color. It requires my address and registration # (52503-511). If you are able to send a photo of you/your daughter or the mosaic it would mean a great deal to me. I will put it up on my prison cell wall next to your letter.

Your daughter is blessed to have a mother who loves her so much and fights for her so relentlessly.

Best, Luigi Mangione

Pretty incredible how this guy shows a million times more humanity than the US president.

[–] coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 43 points 9 months ago

Not that incredible, even a chair has more empathy than Trump.

[–] Theonetheycall1845@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Trump would rape her daughter and then make them the enemy

[–] gamer@lemm.ee 6 points 9 months ago

"They just let you do that when you're the president!"

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 4 points 9 months ago

"You should not have voted democrat, biggest mistake ever!"

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

I'm pretty sure Luigi shows a bit more than zero humanity...

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 56 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Make this guy pope or something.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 13 points 9 months ago

On it.

St. Luigi of Baltimore.

[–] Devanismyname@lemmy.ca 35 points 9 months ago

Dudes a better person than 99% of government and business leaders.

[–] Muaddib@sopuli.xyz 30 points 9 months ago

He's a hero

[–] Meowie_Gamer@lemmy.world 22 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Luigi's Mansion 4

also what a chill guy. I don't condone murder, but to be fair, the guy he did kill killed many more people indirectly.

The CEO got what was coming to him.

[–] bane_killgrind@slrpnk.net 15 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Allegedly killed.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 13 points 9 months ago

I know Luigi is innocent, we were having a board game night that whole week.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 13 points 9 months ago

And we're locking this guy up!?

[–] activ8r@sh.itjust.works 13 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Anyone else thinking there is a none zero chance this is a government sting to get a photo of people who may be future assassins?

[–] satans_methpipe@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Are we all fedposting right now? I bet getting a top secret civilian clearance will be difficult if you write to Luigi.

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 16 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (4 children)

I believe as Luigi has been charged with terrorism charges you would in fact have to inform that you’ve had communications with a “known terrorist” however the DCSA is primarily concerned with known groups and your allegiance to them.

Writing Luigi wouldn’t be a blocker, I assure you. Lying about it, that would be.

At my most recent DCSA meeting the guy chuckled at my mug.

[–] tocopherol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I think since he still has the presumption of innocence before he is convicted they can't say you communicated with a 'known' terrorist, legally it isn't yet known.

This dude DESERVES to Die after this! TRUE Christian Americans would Want the Child to DIE NEEDLESSLY like our All Power CEOS allow!

[–] A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago (9 children)

Is that signature weird or is it my lack of ability to read cursive

[–] BluJay320@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Your signature is actually legible?

[–] Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Mine looks like the product of an epileptic rat with a pen up its arse.

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

oh heavens no child. my signature looks like a crackhead was practicing klingon with a cold.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 2 points 9 months ago

Mine is, but I spell my name incorrectly. It wasn't intentional I just picked up the habit when I was really young and my handwriting was practiced a bit more

[–] Cenzorrll@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It's the signature of a male American that learned cursive in 4th grade before their body was ready for this sort fine muscle control and was never practiced again after learning to sign their name.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

i heard people dont even teach it anymore.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 10 points 9 months ago (9 children)

Mine is

obvious first letter of my first name
everything else is basically a scribble

[–] grysbok@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 9 months ago

That's why I always used my dad's signature instead of my mom's (with his permission--so many silly things need signatures)

This seems a bit sus for pitching a specific app.

[–] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 19 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Welcome to American prisons, where they have contracts with specific companies to provide (usually abusive) services to inmates with no other choices.

If there's an opportunity for a US prison to exploit capitalism to generate revenue, you'd better damned believe they're already doing it.

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 19 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It's probably a prison thing. Like they need to use a specific app to get photos.

[–] Jtotheb@lemmy.world 14 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

You are correct. I may or may not know a guy who processes return-to-sender mail and sees prisons rejecting photos and other communications that are not sent via their approved companies. This is the US. Don’t forget that prisons are for kickbacks, nothing more.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

That's not true, they're also bastions of slave labor and class oppression.

[–] OlderCode@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

He writes with his left hand.

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

Totally sinister
