The hero we deserve is pretty popular. Who woulda thought. I do not advocate his method. I simply like that people feel represented.

Stop saying you don’t advocate it. There is seriously nothing wrong with killing people who hurt other people, especially for profit. There is nothing wrong with advocating for their death, after literally everything else has failed.

I really hope this becomes as frequent as school shootings. Maybe those school shooters will find a more appropriate way to vent whatever that crap is.

I disagree. I think it's perfectly fine to be against the death penalty, which is basically what this was, minus the judicial process.

[–] ramsorge@discuss.online 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So what do you think should happen to people who kill people through policy and are not ever going to be prosecuted? Those people will never get justice, but you seem to be fine with that?

[–] scutiger@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'm not fine with it personally. I think bad people at the very least need to be kept in check.

I do think that being against the death penalty is a valid opinion. "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind" and such.

[–] ramsorge@discuss.online 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So let people indirectly kill people for profit while doing nothing because you’re too moral to poke their eye out?

Well, when no justice is occurring in the justice system, this is the logical next step.
