    Legally, the murder was wrong. Full stop.

    True but this was self defense. I don’t see murder. Murder is the terminology of the regime who is trying to pin some crime on him that I don’t see.

      It doesn’t sound like it was self defence, even if you stretch the meaning away from the legal. His life wasn’t directly threatened by this organization.

      He did it on behalf of others, which eliminates the self in self defence.

        Yeah and cops are always in fear when they murder a civilian…

      Is this a misuse of legal terms, or is there some sort of evidence behind this?

        I was being cheeky mostly but i do think if we as society re asses what self defense means, whoever killed the parasite was defending america from social murder.

        The ruling class would never accept such narrative but every American can decide for himself.

        When cop murders a civilian for no reason, aint it always also defense? So clearly they misuse the term here. I think newer argument has more legs to stand on.

          The term is “justifiable homicide”.

          If the Joker is about to blow up a bus of 30 people and Batman shoots him dead with a gun then the jury acquits because it was justifiable homicide

          I think the difference with cops is that they don’t need the self-defense argument, because the “oopsie” argument gets them out of jail too

            well they always say “feared for their life” so i think you have a point but that argument is root in idea that they always have a right to defend themselves and be given deference on their decision making, ie they only need to feel that way subjectively.
