    If things are okay just because we like them and not okay just because we don’t

    That’s not the situation, nor what anyone is asserting. Who are you talking to?

          No because it was warranted and deserved. Take a look around, this is not an edgy opinion. The majority of Americans feel the way I do, why is that?

          I am one of the most non-violent people. I’ve never struck a person in 35 years of life. The only time violence is warranted is when it is a response to violence. Social murder warrants actual murder. Tens of thousands dead vs one CEO dead. You are crying about the wrong death

          From just above. Literally the person who made me ask that question. And sure enough it’s a call to mob violence while maintaining they are non violent. This is how this shit gets out of hand.

            None of that amounts to this:

            If things are okay just because we like them and not okay just because we don’t then what kind of morals are acting on?

            The reasons this was justifiable have been explained to you ad nauseum. You insist on pretending like its an arbitrary whim despite that. Do you cry every time a drug cartel kingpin gets shot?

                  That’s a great point but if you look at some of my other comments here, it’s not the one I’m making. I am against mob violence. But by articulating our limits we can also limit the possibility that this spills over into higher level mob violence that targets the hated person of the day.
