Defending one's house is not justice?

"Please vibrant Black scholars, take our Lexus - but leave granny's picture alone!" Ahhh, sweet justice - reasoning with thugs.

"Well, we're dead now, but fortunately those Black gentlemen will have their due process. If they ever get apprehended..."

Gunned down in the prime of life like Saint Ahmaud Arbery. Who can blame him for taking the bus 30 miles so he can run on the fine streets built by noble slaves for the enjoyment of ignernt rayciss white people? I bet he was even wearing the tuxedo that all the photos show him in.

Is Trump going to pardon those guys and Chauvin?

Of course not. What political leverage would it give him? White people are not enraged about the railroading of other white people. It could be used by the usual race-hustlers rile up the "black community", but racial conflict does not appear to be on the agenda for Trump 2.0 as it was the first time around.

I was responding to your comment to rd3. rd3 discussed one specific case of serial offenders finally being caught breaking into someone's house and being shot by the homeowner. rd3 called defending one's home - in the context of this one specific incident - "sweet justice". You called it vigilantism. I disagreed with you, and imagined how a better person - someone with an unimpeachable sense of justice - might deal with the same situation.

The original post was not about homeowners defending their property. Like I said even a jalape├▒o knows it can defend itself. The original comment was about vigilantism.

"...even a jalape├▒o knows..."

that, even when confronted with facts and logic, a narcissist is NEVER wrong
