>>So where was the trial, judge and jury?<<
Because the governor and state AG ignored the law there were no charges, no trial, no judge, no jury. You propose that when the law is ignored by those charged with upholding it... the law ceases to matter? The officials ignoring the law are vigilantes too, which makes the vigilante status of the offender in this case questionable, because he is in fact punishing an infraction of the law which authorities were failing to punish--only the gravity of the punishment he gave is in question. But in this case with the lack of a functioning law enforcement or judicial system, how are we qualified to judge his vigilantism? The AG, prosecutor, judge, and jury who would normally be charged with this determination are absent as a result of corruption, so how can we compare what this vigilante did to what they should have done? Perhaps he was too lenient? How are we to know? How can you accuse him of acting lawlessly in response to another acting lawlessly? When you ignore the law for one everything breaks down. You're a hypocrite if you find fault in one who ignores the law in response to another ignoring the law who you found no fault with.
I doubt many of the idiots who post here all full of themselves did so much as read the news to know that he's been charged for his illegal political contributions in the past, Chris_Balsz. But they'll post about justice in the face of this fatass, corrupt, child-killing pig's murder.
That one believes a certain act horrendous and prevention of said act justified does not make one as guilty as he who commits said act. You cannot accuse Chris of a parallel wrong without the ability to evaluate the morality of the act he has evaluated as evil and requiring prevention for the sake of justice. That you disagree with whether or not Tiller's act had the horrendous attribute does not necessarily make Chris's desire to prevent said possibly horrendous act "as horrendous."
