This is a genuine question.

I have a hard time with this. My righteous side wants him to face an appropriate sentence, but my pessimistic side thinks this might have set a great example for CEOs to always maintain a level of humanity or face unforseen consequences.

P.S. this topic is highly controversial and I want actual opinions so let’s be civil.

And if you’re a mod, delete this if the post is inappropriate or if it gets too heated.

    Do the smart thing, instead of arguing with people who think premeditated homicide can be justified just take advantage of these posts to block those people. Lemmy doesn’t have that big of a community so if you actually take the time to block them you’ll see a lot less of extremist brainwashed people in your feed

      people who think premeditated homicide can be justified

      This is, evidently, a common mainstream view. If we lived in a world where the legal system actually worked and was a viable option for dealing with them non-violently, perhaps this view wouldn’t be popular, but the working class can’t afford to pretend the system is fair. Just like citizens defending against a military invasion, sometimes homicide is the only effective action left to try.
