The same people that will justify the murdering of a CEO are the same people that will lose their minds at the first sign of any justification of capital punishment. Apparently a prison can’t put a man to death for committing crimes, but a kid on the street with a gun can. Essentially: A murderer is only a criminal if their victim is someone they don’t like
There was someone in a comment I read yesterday that was talking about their unwritten instance rules stating that calling for the death of people they don’t like is okay, it calling for the death of leftists is against the rules.
This is how it is around here.
Even the concept of nuance is tempered with bias.
How is that hypocritical? I'm sure most people would want to see the CEO serving life instead, but his ilk are not who the prisons are made for. Slavery and murder can be legal when done with policy, and rather than the state going after these villains it defends them with force.
