It saddens me it took this long, but Leonard Peltier is finally free!

It’s a damn crime that this doesn’t have 200 upvotes by now.
Fuckin’ sing, man. It’s a good thing.
I genuinely think most people are unfamiliar with AIM and the absolutely disastrous raid. But I’m right with you in celebrating his freedom.
Yeah. I’m not even joking, seeing this was the happiest I’ve been all day.
The guys who made MODOK? They deserve to rot in SHIELD jail
Who? What is he being granted clemency for? The article doesn’t give any background.
He’s one of the longest held political prisoners in the US, arrested officially for killing 2 feds that shot at a truck he was in. There’s a good chance he wasn’t even there based on alibis, and evidence since his trial have been recanted and invalidated but the sentencing was never overturned. His real crime was being a leader of AIM
I missed this among the others and it’s extremely overdo but I’m glad he’s finally getting some relief.
