Murder at City Hall: The killing of Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk 

Curious how people reject mental health issues when its convenient. People in NYC are sent to mental hospitals ALL THE TIME after murder charges. Why is this case different? White got 8 years in prison. 8 years more than lots of others.

Best Comment Award! We would have all killed our parents because of what we ate after-school Mondays through Fridays

That is just a good illustration of what white male entitlement was capable of pulling out of the woodwork when pressed in the late 70's. u could murder a mayor and a supervisor and walk in a few years. just wow.

😂​@@kidmack3556

Maybe it was the same people from that OJ jury.

Especially in America. Twinkies and Big Macs are the preferred diet over there for 86% of the population.

Yup.

Especially a certain orange tinted character.

lol

mas ele mesmo se impôs a pena que merecia..se matou..que esteja no inferno..o povo fez justiça..pois foi a atitude de não aceitar essa sentença e não deixar que ele voltasse que fez com ele não visse mais sentido da porcaria de vida que teria dali pra frente..sempre seria o assassino do prefeito..justiça foi feita..quem tira a vida dos outros não merece viver.

Diane Fierstein called to him when he passed her door and he said, I have to do something, first as he was headed to Milk's office to murder him. He had just murdered Moscone. He was planned premeditated murder and he planned on killing two more people. He killed himself. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. 🤬

Not to mention, that after they each went down, he bent down, put his gun to their heads and made sure to finish them off. He took his gun, he loaded it with hollowpoints for maximum damage, he went to City Hall and get a maintenance worker to let him in through a basement window, so he could avoid the metal detectors. He then went to the mayors office, got him alone, shot him, then finished him off execution style. Then went past several other offices to get to Milk and repeated it. This was a premeditated, as Ive ever heard of. I have no idea, how any1 could comtemplate for even a second, that this was anything other than a pre-planned, premiditated assassination. And ofc, after he was let out in '84, he talked to his own colleague, who he also had surrendered to and confessed to after the murders, and knowing he could not be tried again, he admitted, that it was premeditated, and that he wanted them both dead and 2 more, he named, who he didnt get the chance for shooting. It is the most outrageous verdict imaginable.

Now do all the Soros prosecutors that Moscone and Milk would have supported

What can you do about it? Stop whining small deranged alphabet being filled with hate

I love how people pretend that there can be two sides when it comes to equality. One side just wants to exist and the other side is literally committed to erasing the other and Dan White was a member of the latter. The fact that cops openly sided with him like they did is more proof that this was significantly more than a case of a guy "snapping" because he was repeatedly emasculated by an "aggressive" gay "agitator" or a snap decision made under duress by a stressed out working man; this was straight up a political assassination like MLK, Malcolm X, Fred Hampton etc etc.

Let’s not forget Milk was a pedophile.

Agreed. This is as premeditated first degree murder as it gets. What a joke.

Right! The judges should’ve stated that he took out Milk & took justice from the San Francisco people that would’ve impeached & indicted Milk & his group for embezzlement, fraud, bribery & corruption

VICIOUS, VIRULENT HOMOPHOBIA, STEEPS JUST BELOW THE SURFACE IN TODAY'S POLITE SOCIETY UNTIL SOMEONE LIKE TRUMP BRINGS IT OUT IN FULL KILL FORCE WITH HIS RACIST SEXIST WHITE POWER TROOPERS

Did you attend the trial? Or are you basing your statements upon watching a feel good story?

Stop typing.

@@skyjuiceification" stop rereading " because it don't help you at all .

This would of never flew in NYC; you kill a mayor you’re out forever. He was so progressive he obviously had people against the change they were making.

As Coach Walsh called it "Camelot"

He had a knack for the quick rebuttal. Somebody suggested he get a less showy automobile…his reply…MY BODY WOULD R EJ E C T …whatever the suggested economy vehicle was. Even when you wanted to smack him you’d remember his punchline.

Moscone, Milk, Brown and their ilk destroyed that city, it is now a shithole.

Sounds very progressive, doesn't it?

7 but he only served 5!!!

Terrible verdict. I dont think that would ever happen today. For some reason, back in those days and previous, your average person couldnt believe that a seemingly normal and good person, could possibly commit haneous crimes. I studied the Jeffrey MacDonald case a lot, and most of his supporters and defense, was that a man who was a doctor, and All American boy, just couldnt do the evil things he was charged with. I think sadly, society has become numb to violence these days. We have seen outwardly nice and good people commit acts of evil over and over again, to the point that ANY person, from any side of the train tracks, are capable of doing them.

​@@ronfroehlich4697Progressives don't want harsh sentences for light crimes like smoking marijuana, but somehow that got morphed by the right into them wanting murderers and rpists to give light sentences. If you look at most instances where some guy got a slap on the wrist for a murder or sex crime, it's usually a conservative judge doing handing it out. One recently just got fired for relitigating his own judgement to allow a man who rped a 16 year old girl to go free.

The story was this with Dan White: he was married to a former Catholic nun and had an extremely small child or two. I know he went on to have more children with his wife while incarcerated but not sure how many then. He had also just opened a baked potato place called One Potato Two at Pier 39 in San Francisco. Pier 39 was being developed then and the site was new and shiny as a tourist extension of Fisherman’s Wharf and a move away from working piers. One Potato Two served loaded baked potatoes that could be customized with a variety of toppings- that was a trend of the time and pretty novel. Not a full blown restaurant. Not sure if they offered inside seating as I never went and not sure if they offered fries along with fountain drinks. It was mainly a to go place and people walked around the Pier munching on hot potatoes . The pressures of the business and growing family weighed heavily upon him. He had only just been elected to the Board of Supervisors and was a political novice having never been an elected official before. Dan Whites’s candidacy came about because of a change in how supervisors were elected. Previously to his run, supervisors were elected by a citywide vote. The top so many vote getters represented everyone citywide. There was election reform that provided that each neighborhood was represented by someone who lived there as opposed to the elites who ruled the hood. The district that White represented was working class Italian Catholics, poor blacks who lived in public housing and a smattering of hispanic and Pacific Islanders. He had no political finese and he was unprepared to deal with the backstabbing front stabbing that he felt he was subjected to. He would never have been elected had he been made to run citywide. He was the biggest fish in his tiny piece of pond that but for the change of election tules, he would not have had. He invited Moscone and Milk to the baptism of his baby and they came. He felt a kinship and they put in an appearance. He eventually resigned from the board and regretted that decision. He appealed to Moscone and Milk and they refused to give him back his seat. The rest is history. He was unhinged. He felt betrayed. He was under stress because his family thought he was the man and failure was fatal. Unbelievable times Sorry for the novel- just that I was there at the time and he was my supervisor.

@@MaurytheHedgehogDogW white L moscone and milk

​@MaurytheHedgehogDog Your'e right about the "backstabbing and frontstabbing" in our city politics... and groin kicking! I been subject to it recently. What people won't do for money and power here. My good friend and native San Franciscan said that she read somewhere that the trend in favoritism for young wealthy Asians and Caucasians is "normal" and that we shouldn't be upset about the change, because San Francisco is always changing and now it's our turn to on the outs. If I could afford to leave I would. Twenty five years seems to me is what you get here as a young person. After you better get ready for another change, or the city will drive you crazy.

This one guy said it all and its true to this day, its always the GOOD guys that face the wrath of hatred in this country. Those dedicated to making things better......Pelosi's husband, Gabby G, Kennedy, etc, while the true haters roam the planet scott free and I won't mention any names....but we all know who I'm talking about!!

yup cause ca is doing so well after turning blue.

@@ChickenPermissionOG All republicans are terrorists

​@@ChickenPermissionOGHow's Alabama doing?

What a wingnut. Liberalism is EXclusive, INtolerant, totalitarian, and violent

That just shows you don't even know who Milk was. Look up the horror stories about him and children.

​@@ragnarlothbrok4281Why horror stories?

🤡🤡🤡🤡 They were essential stepping stones to the current squalor in San Francisco

@@sirushay4398 he had one underage lover for sure. It was consensual in the way that statutory offenses can be consensual and still illegal. Not sure if the sodomy laws were in full force then but Gov Jerry Brown, a former Jesuit, did repeal the law sometime around then.

@@MaurytheHedgehogDog Jesuits love boys

Both men to this day, should still be in prison, never to get out. But we live by the jury system and a lot of ppl get off when you have juries that don't take thier jobs seriously, but allowing emotions, not the facts to get the way of justice. Dan killed himself and OJ is still walking around thinking he's innocent....but the wrath of God's justice, still awaits him. I'm surprised neither of his kids have come out with a book???

What does OJ have to do with this?!!

Wrong. O.J. "never" admitted to murder.

You’ll never learn

Feinstein

Here

May Feinstein burn in hell, as I’m sure Milk and Marcone will as well.

Need many more worhwhile politicians!

"Documentary"??? seriously? Just the facts or a one-sided mind meld trying to promote one view at the exclusion of another? A documentary on HBO? That's funny.

..I wasn't even alive then, was born in 1986. ..and I'm not even American, I'm Canadian, live in Montreal. And yet even I know about this! LOL .. albeit thanks to Sean Penn and James Franco! hehe

​@@putnamcountycrimeanalysiswandrwhat are you talking about?..did I upset your sensibilities?..you'll be strong!

He would've still gotten off. Many of my high school contemporaries believed that it was a planned coup, and it included the verdict.

I was only 8 years old when Mayor Mascone and Supervisor Milk was assassinated.

As indelible as 9/11? LOL....wow.

Yup.

Heaven help us if there is a requirement for who may kneel to pray.

@@liannebedard5521 Kneeling is showing respect to God.

@@braylonmaverick2617That there!😂

Moscow/Milk liberals were big pieces in the 40-50 decline that led to 3 fatal overdoses per day in San Francisco 2023 Also ironic are the Moscone funeral scenes. The left, particularly in San Francisco, hates Catholicism with every fiber of their being

Jonestown

I don't think he would've beaten Moscone. Moscone for two or three terms, followed by Agnos.

I am 81,loving in Queretaro since 2021. and this was wrong

Kamala and Brown.

Actually, I believe Jonestown happened on the 18th of November, and the assassinations happened on the 27th.

That was a tumultuous era. I lived in S.F. in the late ‘60s-70’s. The V. war. Manson murders, this tragedy, Zodiac murders, Watergate, AIDS, Jonestown, militant groups, . . .

@@MB-vu3ow Yup.

Dawgy; she’s been a zombie for like at least 15 years. Check her trading portfolio. Granted, she handled this particular moment. I’ve lived here my whole life and I believe I have voted for this atrocity. But she sells areas like my part of CA out to rep SF, LA, SD, Sac. It forgets why it runs and her absenteeism is just as much of threat on democracy as _______ party is. If you were honest you’d be embarrassed to be “proud” of this lady. Like I really don’t understand how we worship politicians. They’re human. Many are very fallible. - Fallible person

Always found Feinstein to be self serving and wanting any publicity she could get. I may be wrong, but it seemed much the same back in 1978 when this tragic event happened. Shes reaffirming my opinion now, as well. Clearly she should do the unselfish thing, and step down from the Senate. She hasnt, and thats selfish to me.

@@chocolatetownforever7537 a lot of politicians are self serving. I think both sides are delusional thinking it’s a partisan issue. Diane is just one of many geriatrics running a show that impacts ALL of us; only ever self serving.

Two words - term limits. No one should be in politics that long. 90 years old? Come on, there’s something seriously wrong with that. Reminds me of another man who can’t stop soiling his pants, constantly takes vacations while his country suffers, is VERY self serving and corrupt, never tells the truth…anyways, “no comment” (followed by shiteating grin)

@@ajhproductions2347 Mitch McConnell and Feinstein one and the same. Just different sides of coin. Still sharing their barebacks aren’t they?

I always wondered how Diane Feinsteinbergrosenstein and Nancy, who didn’t make a lot of money, lived the lives of Apple and Intel CEO’s. Didn’t add up. They both made government salaries. I did research. Both those broads husbands greatly, greatly benefited from their connections to get extremely wealthy. It’s of course illegal but good luck prosecuting people like that. Grossly corrupt politicians. Sickening. That drunk loser husband of Nancy damn near killed a person walking on the sidewalk when he was drunk driving his Porsche. Diane and Nancy are both corrupt pigs. I wish Nancy would hurry up and join Diane in Hell. Peace. ✌️

She helped ruin California and prospered personally. That's not serving anyone but yourself. California would be better if she and slick Willie Brown had never come to power. Look at San Francisco now 😳

They sent us home from school that day...

Yup.

In what way. Diane Feinstein was a strong law and order mayor

W assassin

I'm not sure if your comment is suggesting that it was sugar (which is just ignorant) or if you think it was partly because he was white (which is racist) and lost his job? Either way your judgement is really strange to me.

@@Goofyguy4ever The irony of all this, is that Diane F. made her mark with this event that led her to DC.
