Lol, it's the Schrödinger's guilt. The news is supposed to be uplifting both because the guy is praised as a hero for killing someone and because he is presumed not guilty.
Personally, i don't have any sympathy for him, regardless he's guilty or not, some things he said are really disgusting.
Nobody deserves to be put in prison for allegedly killing CEOs, whether they did it or not.
"You stand accused of saving the lives of sick puppies with cancer. The penalty is death. How do you plead?"
I don't know anything about what he said, but I can't condone murder - especially if it was for nothing.
It's Schrödinger's vigilantism.
Part of me wants there to be a vigilante hunting down those who prey on the weak by breaking the social contract.
But another part of me doesn't think the people who would be willing to do said hunting should even be free in society to begin with.
Clearly something(s) has to change, but what?
