gcj post making fun of this man
Americans have a deep-seated deranged longing to be in a situation where absolute brutality can be hypothetically justified. Self-defense violence fantasies continue to be unhinged. There’s a shitload of supportive comments in the AMA too.
The idiot is asking to get sued. There's a reason why cops don't talk after an incident where someone gets hurt until it's been handled by a lawyer. I haven't heard the audio but this video did pop up in my feed. And if that robber said "stop:" or cried to "let him go" then he's pretty liable for assault. I only know this because I knew a store owner who fired back at robbers and struck one of the robbers. The idiot store owner decides to shoot the "bad guy"* again and is doing time for murder. There is another reason why most stores have a "don't chase" policy. Yet idiot people like this keep doing it to protect bourgeois property.
*Edit - I'm only quoting local news comments.
I hope this kid gets absolutely fucked over by the legal system and loses everything. I fucking hate the internet, I'm going out side holy shit
Whether he wins or not is still financially draining. A lawyer alone is going to be $15k minimum where I'm from. The thing is that I know :so-true: idiots are going to be throwing money at this guy. This story has petite bourgeoise affectations that would so make this a national story for weeks to come. Can't wait for Brandon to give this guy a shout out in one of his speeches as he dumps another $12 billion for police budgets on his way out.
