Replace Thompson with Anwar and Abdulrahman al-Awlaki.
Our celebratory reaction to Thompson being brought to justice isn’t going to lead to bad things. No, it’s the result of being on the losing end of the world we already inhabit.

There’s the newspaper columnist with the world’s record highest IQ, Marilyn vos Savant. In French, you can read her name as “your (plural) scholar/scientist.” When I was a kid, I was sure that it was a pen name, but it turns out it’s actually her mother’s maiden name.

Goddamn, the United States really is a shithole country, isn’t it? It’s obvious that shooting was the homeowner’s first resort, because this was a drunk guy who thought that it was his own house. Any sign that it was not, like lights going on, or yelling, would have at least made him pause in confusion.
But yeah, Americans be like killing somebody before even issuing a threat is totally justified.
Thanks for the explanation, even if it’s verified as half lies.
