Radical but not logical. Make a post about a violent criminal who murders someone. And then poll the community if that criminal should get the death penalty. And I'll bet the majority would say no and be against the death penalty for all convicted criminals. But those same people have no problem cheering on the murder of someone that they don't like. If a person can live with this contradiction I'd guess that they just aren't thinking for themselves but following a crowd.
It's not execution, it's class war.
It was clearly an execution of an innocent man.
The guy was shot with his own words. Nothing innocent about it.
He was shot with bullets by a murderer.
everyone who isn't sad he died, really, is honouring his legacy. if you were sad he died, you might as well be pissing in his casket and shitting on his tombstone.
