CORUSCANT — Acknowledging past decisions that, while well intended, were destructive, and learning a ragtag team of rebels might win again, the Galactic Empire has proposed amnesty for anyone who may have gotten a little carried away and blown up several planets.
"This is supposed to be a happy galaxy. Let's not bicker and argue about who annihilated whose planet," wrote Grand Moff Ardus Kaine in a guest opinion piece published by The Atlantic after polls showed destroying Alderaan just to get a politician to squeal did not sit well with the galaxy's citizens. "Oopsies happen. Forgive and forget, I always say."
Kaine expounded on the need to forgive those who were forced to decide to erase entire systems from the galactic map while not having all of the information available at the time. He went on to advocate celebrating the moments in which only single reactors were used by Death Stars to vaporize millions of lives in mere seconds when multiple reactors could have easily been used.
"We have to put these fights aside and declare a planetary destruction amnesty. We can forgive the hard calls that people had no choice but to make with imperfect knowledge. Moving on is crucial now, because blowing up planets created many problems that we still need to solve. Together."
When asked to comment about Grand Moff Kaine's amnesty proposal, the residents of Horuz, Kessel's moon, and Alderaan gave no reply.
LET’S DECLARE A PANDEMIC AMNESTY
We need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID.

I know it’s the Bee ... but Emily’s piece was not a joke, nor was it funny. I posted this on another thread .... worth repeating:

Qiviut: This article suggesting/calling for ‘pandemic amnesty’ REALLY pi$$ed me off. Evidently, it had the same effect on some other folks as well. The answer about amnesty Emily is NO ... H.E.Double Hockey Sticks NO. Here are links to pieces I’ve seen on Emily’s ‘amnesty’ piece. Randy Weingarten, head of the teacher’s union thinks amnesty is a good idea, too - the criminals are starting to ‘run scared’ all of a sudden.

Beautiful piece of writing by Nomi Wolf ....
Come on, Jack, no one blanks with a Biden! I did the Kessell Run with Darth Barrack’s Wookie, Mike-El. Yeah. My son died in the Clone Wars. Darth Pop was a bad dude. Can I sniff you, Princess Leia?
“We didn’t know.” —Emily Oyster
Well, Emily, all you had to do was watch Fauci and the rest during that time to see that they never followed the rules they laid down for everyone elee. They went to restaurants; hair-stylists; traveled where they liked when they liked; let cities burn through “mostly peaceful protests” while arresting business owners; forced people out of jobs for not being “vaccinated” while exempting themselves from taking it... Proof enough that it was all a colossal, global lie.
Hahahahahahaha! Reminds me of this scene from "Monty Python and The Holy Grail" when Lancelot (John Cleese) slashes and kills a bunch of guests trying to save a maiden from a forced marriage, only to find out is a homosexual man. When the father finds out he is the famous and influential Lancelot, when the other guests want to kill him, he says:
"...This is supposed to be a happy occasion! Let's not bicker and argue about who killed who. We are here today to witness the union of two young people in the joyful bond of the holy wedlock. Unfortunately, one of them, my son Herbert, has just fallen to his death..."
NO SINGING!
Hahahaha...I just love that. They were so fart ahead of their time!
“YOU’RE NOT GOING INTO A SONG WHILE I’M HERE!”

Chewchilla was hilarious.
