    Sure, and the irony in the original post is as obvious as it is in scubus’ comment. They seem to present this - an extrajudicial killing by the police, the enforcement arm of the judicial system - as an example of the extrajudicial justice we must rely on since the judicial system has categorically failed us. It just doesn’t make sense (and it has nothing to do with my initial comment)

      What should we rely on instead to stop these extremely violent people who got a full pardon? Because as far as I can tell, the only way they will be stopped is if they go up against the fascist cops.

      That’s not praising the cops, that’s saying there’s no one else. Because there is no one else.

        Squiddy, are you seriously saying our only hope is the cops? I know you love arguing against things but if that’s what you sincerely believe you have lost your damn mind.

          It’s called fighting fire with fire.

          Again, what should we rely on instead? You didn’t answer.
