Regrets. We all have them. Well, maybe not Rhamell Burke, who showed no remorse in court on Saturday after being charged with second-degree murder after pushing a 76-year-old retired teacher down a set of New York City subway stairs and killing him. Burke, who's been arrested four times since February, was all smiles, according to The New York Post:

What's really infuriating, though, is that a liberal woman who refused to cooperate with prosecutors after Burke had attacked her now has regrets, knowing that he went on to kill a man. Something in her just didn't want to see another black man go to jail, she told The Post:
Liberal woman who refused to cooperate with prosecutors after maniac attacked her on subway weeks before he pushed retired NYC teacher to death has regrets: "Maybe a part of me was just like, I don’t want to put another black man in jail." https://t.co/QihuYD552f

Joe Marino and Anna Young report:
“I regret it 100% and I actually feel really bad that a man lost his life,” the woman said.
“Maybe a part of me was just like, I don’t want to put another black man in jail, but, you know, at some point, if you are a criminal, you’re a criminal, and he was scary, he was a scary guy.”
Definitely a clinical case of what @GadSaad calls “suicidal empathy.” 😬

Maybe liberal women have the worst possible judgment on the planet.
This woke woman is just as dangerous to the society as the man.

Skin color does not matter.
Basically her suicidal empathy got another man killed. She should feel responsible for that and it should weigh on her heavily. She should understand an innocent man would be alive today if she told the truth and was a decent person.

Maybe not, though. They probably would have let him go.
I think that is what Gad Saad would call "suicidal empathy." Perfectly happy to have that man commit future crimes against innocent people as long as she can feel virtuous. It is difficult to understand how this woman can be deprogrammed - society has never faced this insanity.

Why is it putting a black man in jail? It’s putting a dangerous guy in jail.

Liberal women will be the downfall of our culture.

Yes, much better an innocent person, maybe even a child, dies.

The ultimate in suicidal female empathy.
— Marc Emery (@MarcScottEmery) May 9, 2026
Actually it’s more like homicidal female empathy.
The crime is what should put him in jail, not you repeating it back to law enforcement. What an idiot.

Someone is dead because she's got a savior complex

But will she draw a valuable lesson from this that will change her actions in the future? I doubt it.

Liberal women and weak men who enabled them destroyed our country.

Liberal white women will destroy Western civilization if we allow them to continue in this fashion.

That's hard to argue. Suicidal empathy crossed with the revolving-door "justice" system will get us all killed.
