In reply to the discussion: Ohio State attacker said he was 'scared' to pray in public [View all]heaven05
(18,124 posts)41. no excuse for
the murderous action, I do understand how fear probably made his mind snap. The issues were already there, just needed a real or imagined incident to cause reaction. I will never excuse murder as I have seen people here excuse in the case of unarmed PoC being murdered by authorities of the state all over this country AND private wanna be "neighborhood watch' citizens. And they usually started their rationalization with the words "thug", "criminal past" ect. No I am not one of those types that I have seen speak out, in favor of murder of unarmed citizens and in this case student citizens, here. He is dead. He is no more problem. The people he hurt and killed they have my hopes they can heal and more importantly, move on with their lives.
