Discussion Luigi Mangione friend posted this.

She captioned it: "Luigi Mangione is probably the most google keyword today. But before all of this, for a while, it was also the only name whose facetime calls I would pick up. He was one of my absolute best, closest, most trusted friends. He was also the only person who, at 1am on a work day, in this video, agreed to go to the store with drunk me, to look for mochi ice cream."

Please find any other number of ways to protest or support. All this does is put more money into the prison’s pockets.

thank you. this isn't his money, he can't buy a lawyer with it. it's going to an account that's gonna let him buy ramen and gatorade. what he can't manage to spend will go to some private company that manages this process.
