  • if some ass pulls a piece on you and you take it from them and plug them, that seems like some kind of self-defense or other mitigation to me.

    they should charge the guy who pulled the gun with brandishing, assault by pointing, reckless endangerment, and illegal distribution of a firearm to a felon. unless he’s dead, then in which case: rip bozo.

        Maybe don’t pull a gun on a person when you’re in a crowded bus and then get shot to death by your own gun? Seems like a skill issue.

            Ah yes, when everybody is amped up and somebody wants to play “hero”, everybody is thinking completely clearly.

            Dude would still have been alive and the bus wouldn’t have been hijacked if he just kept his firearm in his pants and sat the fuck down.

                If I punch you in the face and you kick my ass to the point that I die, I get some responsibility in the outcome no?

                  If you threaten someone and then they punch you, and then you murder them, and then you involve dozens of unrelated people in your chase across town, it seems like the equation would change quite a bit.

                  Nevertheless, it’s hilarious to see Hexbearites’ tune pull a complete 180 on punitive measures and American self-defense laws when their guy does it. This site throws a hissy fit every time some generic robber gets shot, malds about excessive force, and then immediately turns around and justifies the same thing x100 when it’s convenient for them.

                  When a shoplifter is killed, it’s the unnecessary death of an impoverished person caused by excessive force, but when an entire bus gets hijacked because some psycho didn’t like being confronted about his behavior, jeopardizing the lives of dozens of people, many of them minorities that you pretend to care about, suddenly going in guns blazing and emptying lead into your enemies is good, actually.

                  Going from condemning the police for killing violent criminals because they didn’t actually pose a threat to their safety, praising Chinese cops for disarming and apprehending them instead of killing them, to justifying a violent and psychotic rampage over having a gun pulled on you after threatening people across the scene from a mass shooting is quite the leap.

      • maybe the hijacked bus was full of people like you heading to a bozo convention, and he was trying to do us all a huge favor. maybe we should wait until all the relevant facts are revealed before we crucify a man who could literally be the reincarnation of jesus christ.
