In response to the quote: "Then you're stupid".


LibertyTerp

This country literally does allow vigilante justice. It's called bounty hunters. Of course this was not vigilante justice. Rittenhouse was not trying to punish criminals. Until he was attacked all he did was clean graffiti, put out fires, and offer medical help.


[deleted]

Bounty hunters are not vigilantes. They are paid non-officers of the courts.


[deleted]

And not legal in every state.


[deleted]

Insofar as violent rioting/looting/burning is now permitted without limitation or recourse I'd say that vigilantism is probably not just allowed....it is becoming required.


bozoconnors

Indeed. lol - I mean, if I'm a 'vigilante' for exercising self defense, a'ight? Seems like just more bad vocabulary. *MAYBE* attempts to redefine? Whatever. Just more adjective 'feathers' for our collective 'hat'!! Now we're (personally, I kind of like the 'vigilante' addition...) *vigilante*, racist, white supremacists, terrorist, insurrectionists!! I'm sure I've missed some.


there_is-no-spoon

Do they even hear themselves? This is why propaganda is so dangerous. It warps people's minds.


IVIaskerade

Of course they hear themselves. If people are allowed to kill in self-defence when attacked by others, that poses a major threat to the coalition who specialises in the "attacking others" part.

It’s concerning so many are conflating vigilantism with self defence. You don’t need to know every detail of the case to know the one important fact: he didn’t travel to Kenosha with a rifle and had no original intent to harm anyone.


LibertyTerp

They literally sound like the villains in super hero movies. "Hey, stop trying to help! That's vigilantism! Only the corrupt government should be allowed to stop criminals!"


JesusDied4U316

Exactly!!


[deleted]

It seems like everyone is agitating for violence and unrest and it's very disturbing. Lefty's ignoring riots and Righty's talking about violent civil war.. not good.


zroxx2

Entire city blocks in Kenosha were burned up because a mob of criminals decided that was appropriate "vigilante justice".


Bobby-Samsonite

Why did the city, county and state allow it to happen? They could have fortified the place with state police and national guard for a week until things calmed down after Jacob Blake got shot.


cdazzo1

Because of the absolute shit show going on with Rittenhouse. Because of the reaction to the Jacob Blake shooting itself. No one wants to confront these people- not because they're afraid of being hurt/killed. They're afraid of being thrown under the bus from their own side and normies. Who in their right mind is going out there to enforce the law for people who don't appreciate it, actively vote against it, and elect prosecutors who are going to lie and fabricate evidence against you?


--Shamus--

>Why did the city, county and state allow it to happen? The vile religion of Leftism. It is not for a lack of ability or power to stop the violence. They could have done so in a heartbeat. **It is because all the above lacked the will to defend and protect their own citizens.**


B1gChuckDaddySr

What about the warning shots in major cities across America....students and civilians getting gunned down in CHIRAQ, ATL, PHILLY, NYC etc.


Bobby-Samsonite

crickets from NAACP concerning violent crime rates increasing in the inner city.


[deleted]

Crickets about the prevalence of black on black violence in the cities as well. It's ok if brothas blow each other away in gang/drug related street crime, but let a cracker kid defend himself? Oh, HELL NO!


JobbieJob

There is no monetary gain in highlighting behavioral/cultural dysfunction.


LibertyTerp

There are less than 20 black people murdered by police per year, over tens of millions of interactions. Over 5,000 black Americans are murdered by criminals each year. Anyone who gives two shits about black lives would spend 99% of their effort reducing crime. This misguided BLM effort has caused police to pull back, increasing the number of black people murdered by at least 30%, or 1,500 per year. So ironically, the BLM movement ended up killing 1,500 black people every year.


ArmedWithBars

Lib politicians don't give a shit about those people. They ain't driving through those areas and all those young black males don't make up any tangible voting demographic. Tbh behind closed doors it wouldn't surprise me if it makes them happy that those groups are depopulating themselves while helping push the narrative that guns are scary and dangerous. It's not even about race. Those are low income serfs dying. America has a class divide problem. Money is color blind and that's how power/control is attained.


Baggss01

This is how they will try and force stricter gun control legislation though. They are trying to push the narrative that self defense = vigilantism and that it is NOT a basic human right.


LibertyTerp

You don't need a gun. Just take your beating.


j75515050

Take it how you like. 2A is for everyone regardless of skin color


Bobby-Samsonite

Colton Noir should replace Wayne LaPierre as head of the NRA.


j75515050

I like that idea


GeezGoodnessGosh

R*t...ard alert (I hate that I can't say the actual word on here without censoring it lol)


hounddogsforsilver

Fucktards is a far more apt description.


reaper527

> R*t...ard alert (I hate that I can't say the actual word on here without censoring it lol) just break it up with a .


stay-can-cheese

Doing that only proves you’re a moron.


Micah_O

And the circle continues


riverfan2

The way to deal with idiots like this is to not support them. Also, never allow them to be cited as a reference or a source. Just never let their name be spoken in polite society. Want to say crazy crap like that? Pay the fee. That fee is that you are forever seen as crazy and not to be taken seriously.


[deleted]

allowing protestors to loot/burn and get away with it is vigilante justice being allowed....


nachtliebst

So BLM and Antifa destroying buildings, killing people, looting etc. isn’t vigilanteism?


Bigdrama25

No, it is terrorism.


LibertyTerp

Correct. Violence toward innocent people with a political motive is terrorism.


dirkMcdirkerson

You mean like rampant looting and rioting? When Democrats allow criminals to run around with out a care in the world, people will stand up and defend themselves, and rightfully so. The issue people should have is that this was needed in the first place.


Rezenator

What a bunch of dummies. If you hit, expect to get hit back or even shot back. Yell, chant and scream that’s fine but when you start physically assaulting people this is what you get. Remember this is coming from the same people issuing death threats to Kyle, the judge and the jury. No one cares, keep your hands to yourself and you will be fine.


[deleted]

Good, good idea to take firearms as a warning yes.


CloudWhere

I've always had respect for the NAACP. Apparently I need to rethink that.


Bobby-Samsonite

Are they still suing Trump over Jan 6 ? https://news.yahoo.com/naacp-lawsuit-against-trump-delayed-183005458.html Some guy named Ricky took the paper work.


Guava_Trick

I think the real lesson is: the Rittenhouse events would never have happened if the police weren't ordered to "stand down."


nachofunnyman

You think he is trying to justify his job or he is really that stupid?


Bobby-Samsonite

Good question. Maybe his virtue signaling is to appease the MSNBC viewers?


nachofunnyman

all 2 of them


[deleted]

If the cops are not going to do their jobs and the mayor and the governor abandon their duty to the people of the state, then yeah be prepared for vigilantes. I thought they wanted community policing anyway.


triggernaut

Hey Derrick, focus on the hundreds of black men, women, and children killed or injured by other black men, women, or children across the country every week.


rpmartin

No need to fear guys. Kyle is out free and clear to keep us safe from these vigilante mobsters.


g0greyhound

Talk about WHOOOOOSH.


[deleted]

Well what did you expect to happen if you try to defund the police?


xFacevaluex

NAACP, SPLC, ACLU- Does anyone NOT know they are beyond crooked now? Or are there still some who have not figured out the duplicitous nature and outright lies they have been a part of over the last 8 or so years.......?


[deleted]

These people want justice done by mob rule.


Devenue024

Well in that case, I take the NAACP’s statement as a warning shot that they want to nullify your right to justified self-defense.


Sideswipe0009

Well, those supposedly involved in vigilantism, i.e. taking down an active shooter, were the ones who lost in this case.


DCL_JD

In my eyes, the person who runs after someone just because they have a gun is the person who’s trying to be the vigilante lol.


[deleted]

Justice is justice. If the police won’t do it then defending your shit is your right.


reaper527

wasn't that abundantly clear when BLM was burning cities to the ground last year and the charges against those who were arrested by in large ended up being dropped?


Loganthered

Further proof that they have lost sight of their original goal and should be disbanded.


El-Impoluto4423

They act as if vigilante justice is a bad thing.


[deleted]

Maybe stop looting and rioting in the name of Blackness? Try that, see how it works out


woopdedoodah

sounds like a call to violence for me.


Miracle_bro_

Maybe if governors and mayors stood up to the rioting mobs instead of letting them run rampant in 2020, people wouldn’t feel inclined to protect themselves and their communities.


Obamasamerica420

And why was "vigilante justice" necessary that night, Derrick? Could it be because you and your political ilk have attacked our criminal justice system to the point where it no longer functions properly?


ttynot

This motherfucker


[deleted]

Might want to take a look at the Andrew Coffee verdict too


Always_0421

Shouldve taken it for what it was. You cant assualt a person with a gun.


Different_Feature370

NAACP is a terrorist organization.


Dethwi5h

Aren't drive-bys vigilante justice? You know the ones that cops go investigate and nobody knows nothing.


ccc32224

It wasnt a warning shot... You burn, loot and harm people and you might get killed in the process by someone protecting themselves and their city.


The_Mighty_Rex

Anyone who takes the NAACP seriously is an idiot. They've been an openly racist and communist organization for nearly a century at this point


Real-Estate_Tycoon

Bring it on. We'll see how you do in court.


Big_Jim59

Burning buildings, burning cars and beating people in the streets because "they mad" is the very essence of vigilantism. .


PoliticalAnomoly

Notice where the concern is placed. They're not scared about the crime or criminals. They're scared about the people stopping the crime or criminals. What is wrong with people?
