I have said previously i don’t know if he did it or not. I’m still waiting for the evidence to be presented in court. The media and by extension much of the public have already decided he’s guilty which limits his ability to have a fair trial which only complicates things further.
Now do i think people should go around killing people they don’t like or don’t agree with? No.
But what is equally troubling to me are your words that you want to see him convicted and sentenced to life. Do you want that even if his constitutional rights have been violated? Is it OK to ignore some constitutional rights under certain circumstances?
The thing about constitutional rights is that we shouldn’t choose when they are upheld and when it’s ok to ignore them. This is a large issue in the US right now in more than just the right to a fair trial, and even extends to human rights violations.
