The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:David Gilbert/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.
This article is more a fawning paean from a radical-left admirer than an objective biography. It would be more accurate to call Gilbert a "convicted felon" than a "prisoner," and the author seems to be downplaying and/or misunderstanding the significance of the felony murder rule. In the eyes of the law, Gilbert is no less a murderer of those three guards than the gang members who pulled the triggers. The impression is created that the murder of those guards was simply the result of overeager but nonetheless dedicated revolutionaries, and was simply part of the broader context of Gilbert's righteous battle against the forces of evil capitalism. Tell their families that. And comparisons to another's sentence for supposedly similar crimes is of no significance.
