How is what they said a strawman? You said laws should be updated to allow retribution.
You are not in danger from the community at large because one person committed a crime. That’s asinine logic. You’re speaking from intense paranoia to justify hunting down someone that wronged you. Like the cop pigs that idolize the Punisher, you don’t care about justice, just assuaging your own violent tendencies with a more socially acceptable target.
You realize I explicitly said that in the moment to stop the act was justifiable as self defense right? My entire point was that outside of direct self defense, you should not track down people that wronged you to murder them.
Every scenario you’ve thrown out in this rant would not lead to a better outcome if they started gunning people down. It would just multiply the trauma.
And what projection? I’m not trying to justify violence against anyone. You’re so upset you don’t even know what you’re saying. You advocate not for fixing the problems that exist but creating new ones.
Btw you ever read the parts of the punisher where he says that his existence is not something to want or desire and that he only exists when justice is broken.
You know all these bits from the comics yet the overarching theme of them seems to zoom straight past you.
Maybe Count of Monte Christo or The Last of Us 2 are not too subtle to get past your close minded rage. That girl in Steubenville would likely face similar if not worse mob action had she murdered the person that was being protected based on how backwater the justice system sounds there.
You’re so caught up in justifying your bloodlust that you lose sight of actually dealing with the issues you want to solve.
Bottom line, you want to kill criminals, don’t be surprised when they take measures to kill you first. Or don’t be surprised when their clique tracks you down for a little bit of their own vengeance.
Focus your energy on something productive and therapeutic before you get yourself thrown in prison.
Protecting victims from rape involves dealing with the things that incentivize it before it happens. Killing people after a crime has been tried since Hammurabi. It doesn’t deter crime and we’ve had this data and analysis for quite some time now.
You’re a violent, arrogant, and fallacious person that’s wrapped their ego around this issue so tightly that you can’t even read simple statements for what’s written, constantly sliding malicious assumptions and lobbing insults. Then when faced with any pushback you accuse me of maligning you as if you have no concept of hypocrisy.
Good bye. Keep focusing on the set dressing of things like the punisher and not the actual message being conveyed. It really betrays how hollow and empty the toxic bile you’re lobbing is. If you’ve been this up your own ass for forty years then that’s a good enough sign that no one should bother interacting with you lest you snap at them.
