    This is the problem with the whole “glorification of a murderer” thing. Nobody gets to dictate who gets killed except the murderer. If everyone decided to do the same, it’s not just the people you think “deserve it” who would be killed.

      The difference is the overwhelming support he’s getting as well. Jury of your peers and all that.

        And when the person getting support kills someone you care about? Still ok with that jury? Or even if they don’t have support after - wtf is that going to do for the dead person? By celebrating the act, you just encourage the same behavior, and you don’t get to deliberate over who the next target is - by the time you can voice an opinion, it’s long past mattering.

            Why are you misrepresenting what I said? I’m very clearly not talking about him doing it again, and neither were you.
