So we're OK with vigilante murders now?
Yeah, kinda. Rich (and cops) aren't going to police themselves
Edit: case and point-this article
Why can't we play by the same rules? The thing that blows my mind is, vigilante justice is the only outcome when turning the other cheek is the only option for the oppressed.
When the justice system refuses to function, other methods of maintaining order inevitability fill its gap.
Yes I do, when their no justice then we should make our own.
When the soap, ballot, and jury boxes repeatedly fail to protect the populace, the 4th box becomes inevitable. I'm not saying it's right, but this is the general arc of these things.
The meme lied, the "murder" was minutes after the rape, during an active fight where the man said he would kill the woman. In an area of Mexico that had seen a rash of women being raped and murdered.
And Mexico still sent her to prison for murder.
Corrupt justice systems require alternative methods. Don't want vigilante justice? Then ensure actual justice exists. Cops and politicians and rich ppl and connected ppl all corrupt justice by avoiding accountability. Trump being the POTUS twice over is all I need to know about whether the Justice system is about justice or something else, like oppression, coercion, intimidation and control.

Took me a second to get this. I was concentrating too hard on the thumbs up part.
Ahhh you’ve made me so happy. That’s exactly what I was going for when I was typing that out hahahaha
It seems the only justice still being served
If the justice refuses to judge what would you do? Just let it happen to your kids and apologize for being in the way?
You gotta get justice, one way or the other.
Yes.
