Reply #98: Sometimes it just doesn't seem worth the effort. [View All]

This is turning into one of those times. Trying to articulate meaningful comments that would add anything of value, that aren't obvious, that are fact-based, that don't get tedious real quick, etc. etc. is getting me nowhere.

Reading about people described in the OP on the web turns up a lot of opinions (one that was similar I don't think I could link to here), some speculation, some possibly valid notions, and a lot of valid complaints about vigilantism in situations that went past just stopping a crime (i.e. 'handing out justice').

I already commented on what I see the primary complaints here at DU seem to most often be about. The gun - it's use, and it's need - is the issue, and not the intervention of 'a decent person'.

Time to move on, I think.
