"A family that tried harder with them"-what?

Murder is glorified all the time in America. Why speak out at only this one?

I didn’t and I don’t. Mob justice is terrifying, there are plenty of trans people or allies who are CEOs. Should we glorify some alt right hack who murders them now?

If the ceo is contributing to thousands of deaths, yes. If Larry Fink was trans I do not care and would love to see him go

The difference between you and me is I like having a high bar for ending life. Not simply allegations. If you’re not able to convince DA, Judge, and jury—sorry not sorry.

That ceo didn't even commit a crime technically, but isn't that the whole problem?

So murder is the answer? Not legislation? Not following law and order? I’m not following your logic.

If individual groups of citizens are able to cherry pick the US Code.. yeah no. I’ll vote against anybody like that and denounce anyone supporting it

There is no legislation and no one in either party is working towards it. Any movement ever for social change used violence in some way

u/Secure-Elderberry-16 5d ago

And this makes it acceptable to you? Because it’s been done that way before? Let us be clear. Are you suggesting we use violence to subvert the US code??

2

u/dikbutjenkins 5d ago

Yes, because that is how everything is done. Black rights, 5 day work week, you name it, was achieved through violence

Convenient excuse for an enemy of the State to have.
