    A spokesperson for St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Melissa Price Smith said that her office offered to drop the charges so long as Stein completed 10 hours of community service. She would not be required to make an admission of guilt. Stein’s actions in court today, however, suggest she’s opted not to accept that deal.

    Okay. So she wants to be there. This is a political stunt. Thats fine. More power to her. Its a good stunt. I doubt it helps anything cause she is a poison pill but whatever.

    But the “US regime” isn’t targeting her. C’mon.

    Frankly the 10 hours of community service would do more good.

      What a crazy comment to state someone should work 10 hours for free because they got assaulted while protesting genocide. All because you want to promote your pro genocide party.

        I think we should all do community service. I love doing trash pickups and Beach cleanups and community events and I try to do them every single week. I think if you want to maintain a healthy Community it’s up to all of us to contribute communally.

        And I absolutely think Jill Stein of all people would be doing way better for everybody in the world by picking up some trash than anything she normally does, which is entirely to her own benefit. For someone who claims to care about gaza, she sure seems to be good friends with a lot of Benjamin netanyahu’s friends.

            She’s not getting 18 months come on. The post I made up here that was removed for trolling (lol) was linking to an article and quoting that they had offered her 10 hours of community service and no admission to guilt as a plea. That the prosecutor on the case had already tried to dismiss the case. Funny how facts and context was trolling hmmm.

            The only reason this is still even a story because she wants it to be a story. It’s a political stunt she’s using to stay relevant. Because remember what’s important is she stays relevant she didn’t give a shit about the cause.

              Yeah everyone is out to get you. You are very oppressed by the evil mods. 🙄

              Let’s assume she’s a psychopath political operator and Russian plant and this is all a calculated move to improve her brand.

              Why won’t any Democrats go out and get arrested like this? Are they stupid?
