    Why is that great?

    That’s two lives lost. That’s horrible. And for what? Some stupid ideology? What a waste.

      Unfortunately the options aren’t 2 or zero, they are 2 or 1.

      If the killer lived they would have used their trial and incarceration as a platform to spew further hate.

      I assume since that won’t be happening now, that’s what op is celebrating

        All very true but should we really celebrate death by cop without a trial? I’m as disgusted as anyone by this crime but I also really fucking hate and distrust cops. Did they for sure get the right guy?

      Well, of course he didn’t mean it’s great that the lady got shot. Folks in this thread seem to like the instant karma aspect of him getting gunned down by the cops. I can understand the visceral appeal of that - I mean fuck that guy - but my head knows that death by cop, on the scene of the crime, is not the justice system we want.
