The point in question here is how public the event would be, not how effective. So in that regard, yes, Trump’s and even Epstien’s trials were quite public, regardless of how effective they were at rendering justice.
You’re attacking a straw man, which is how effective the judicial system was. As for that attack, you’re absolutely right. Those three instances had laughable results and dumbfounding failures of justice.
Remember these are not pirates they are crew being told what to do with families back in Mother Russia and a great many pressures on them. Better a trial with all the details spewing forth and Russia blaming birdstrike and threatening armageddon over a cable.
I can’t have sympathy for someone who’s committed war crimes.
I agree that having a platform to expose Russian interference is helpful, I also think setting an example to those who are helping Russia (coerced or not) is far more helpful than exposing Russia.
can’t get more public than a hanging on the docks that’s live streamed.
You definitely could. A hanging lasts less than a day. A trial could stay in the Overton window for much longer.
Sink the boat so it interrupts shipping into one of their waterways. Do it with every sabotage boat from now on.
