[@bjw7383]

despite his blatant racism, i think he was just in his actions, he was mugged many times before and did not want it to happen again, they argue about if the race of the boys shot were reversed but since they were black it seemed the media sympathized with them to the point where they discarded their crimes, i myself am a black man and it pains me to see the media almost treat us like kids that didn’t know any better.

He clearly wasn’t mentally stable enough for it. If someone is willing to get a gun illegally then they don’t need to have one.

[@atlasferrara7418]

@Trashley Only situation I could imagine someone justifiably getting a gun when they’re denied a permit is when they have a stalker or an active threat to themselves or their family. It all depends on why they were denied. If they’re denied because they have a violent past, they shouldn’t have a gun. There’s other means of defence that don’t require a gun. Knives, machetes, bows, tasers

[@atlasferrara7418]

@thcirblueerf It’s quite possible he was being paranoid, considering he had a traumatic experience beforehand. He needed therapy and self defence lessons, not a gun. Also I’d imagine that with training and a letter from said mental health professional would help him arm himself. Edit: Responding much later I mistakenly equated the subway shooter with my own example. One can be understandably concerned and still not require a gun for safety, especially if he was traumatised. Possibly having PTSD can cause him to react improperly to a non-threatening situation. I’m not saying he didn’t need to be concerned, I’m saying that he wasn’t mentally safe to keep the innocent around him safe from himself.

It seems the media treated these four like they just left Sunday school and were on their way to do volunteer work rather than just roaming around looking for someone to rob 😂

Except it made headlines worldwide. People all over the world had opinions about the subway vigilante/shooter.

Fantasy: Not a single person in the United States knows anything about the outside world. Reality: Plenty of US Americans have travelled to other countries and actually know something about other countries.

[@RobertSmith-bs4hl]

I'm literally only 2 minutes into this video but what I will say is that it is okay to take a human life if it means protecting your own or if you even think that somebody if you really believe somebody's going to take your life and you take theirs and defense it is okay it's not okay to harm an innocent person

[@arrow1414]

Whether Goetz was right or not to shoot them, at the ages of 18 and 19 years old they were adult men, not boys. Yes, very young men but men nonetheless.

If you get bullied and keep getting blind. This is the outcome. And people wonder why this stuff happens. I believe the ADULTS deserved it (When you turn 18, you are a adult).

if every person that got bullied ended up killing nobody would be left

How are they "kids" or "youths" when they were all legal adults?

[@SuchDoge4242]

This dude may be a racist, but he was for sure justified in his defense of his life in a threatening 4 v 1 situation, and you missed the part where they blocked his exit, so he only could reasonably fight.

[@3Xmedic]

The man is a hero. And the whole "if the races were swapped" is not a good position to argue from. Regardless of whatever he thought or felt about other ethnic backgrounds doesnt change the fact that he was mugged 3 times prior. His wealth and income is irrelevant as well. Rich or poor, a mugging is still a mugging. In my oppinion he is a hero, and showed other would-be crims what can happen when society is pushed to the breaking point.
