So killing is not okay except when its internet-approved vigilantism?

Example: “Polititian commutes death sentences” Lemmy be like “good”, but then when “Politician condemns assassination” Lemmy have a problem with condeming political violence?

(Like Gavin Newsom commutes all death row immates in California vs when Democratic polititians condemned Luigi Mangione)

Or are these different groups of Lemmings?

    So it’s wrong to defend yourself or others with lethal force, and you should instead allow yourself and others to be killed unlawfully?

    The courts are captured, they won’t do it. Your take is way off base here. I oppose the death penalty as operated by the state too, but to argue there is never any reason for those without the protection of the state to kill someone, shows you have lived a very sheltered and privileged life, and frankly shows naivety.
