Recent reports from the city of Desanto have raised questions surrounding the growing use of scapegoats, especially those involved in untimely deaths. Among the reports, the most shocking detail has come from the views held by the city’s mayor, Marshall Desantiss, on how the city should respond to cases of untimely death.
Mayor Desantiss has put forth a clear opinion that those responsible for the untimely death of an innocent person must be brought to justice and held accountable for their actions. He believes that if action is not taken against those found responsible for such losses, then society becomes an unsafe place to live, as further instances of untimely death can occur with impunity.
The mayor is convinced that by holding those responsible for such deaths accountable, it will bring a degree of closure for both the family and friends of the deceased, as well as a reminder to society that untimely death should not be acceptable. By creating a scapegoat, he believes that it will send a stronger message that justice will be served in such cases.
Despite this firm view from Mayor Desantiss, it is not clear whether the citizens of Desanto agree with him. Some believe that there is a risk of creating a scapegoat culture, where those responsible for a death are not necessarily the ones brought to justice, but rather those who are easy targets and have little control over the situation.
What is clear is that Mayor Desantiss is determined to ensure justice is served in the cases of untimely death, and while his views may not be shared by everyone in his city, he is certainly determined to bring accountability to those responsible. Only time will tell if the rest of the country and the world take a cue from the mayor or decide to take a different course when it comes to untimely death.
