Prof: 'Nothing wrong with' murder of Trump supporter from a 'moral perspective'

Every day, more and more, they reveal themselves.
quote:
University of Rhode Island Professor Erik Loomis appeared to defend the murder of Aaron "Jay" Danielson, the member of the right-wing group Patriot Prayer, during recent social unrest in Portland, Oregon.
In 2012, Loomis came under scrutiny after he called for NRA executive Wayne LaPierre's "head on a stick" following the shooting massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut.
Now, Loomis is once again under fire after publishing a blog post titled "Why was Michael Reinoehl killed?" Reinoehl is the man suspected of fatally shooting Danielson. Reinoehl was killed as federal authorities tried to arrest him.
quote:LINK
In the comment section of the blog post, one reader challenged Loomis by writing, "Erik, he shot and killed a guy," referring to Reinoehl.
Loomis responded by saying, “He killed a fascist. I see nothing wrong with it, at least from a moral perspective.” He further added that “tactically, that’s a different story. But you could say the same thing about John Brown.”

I'm curious where they have obtained their moral standard and why theirs is superior to one that says murder is immoral.

This is what happens when man's arrogance becomes the foundation of their own code of ethics. Cold-blooded murder becomes defensible based purely on their opinions. This is why nearly every leftist government in history commits mass murder to take power and then spends the waning years of their failed form of government terrorizing, imprisoning and murdering their critics. The very foundation of their ideals is rotten to the core.

Re: Kyle Rittenhouse:
Difference is KR was self defense, not cold blooded murder.

I can't hate on him too much. I feel the same about communists.

Nothing wrong with rounding up Jews and undesirables and putting them in camps.

It's long past time for a purge of Communists.

Even if we were to say that killing fascists is OK, where is the proof the victim was a fascist?
It appears that he killed a random person.

If you think your fellow lefty posters here think any different, you are kidding yourselves.
I've been telling you all for years: As a former Proggy that hung out with the worst of the worst....THEY WANT YOU DEAD. Period.
This is why they have worked so hard to dehumanize you.

He's an idiot.
That said, there were many on this board who saw nothing wrong from a moral perspective with driving over protesters, even if it resulted in their death. Many here have called for a "purge," and it is not uncommon for there to be expressions of violence toward political opponents.
Ain't neither side got the higher ground on this point. Each side has its violent idiots.

Moral perspective? That's an interesting take from someone I can almost guarantee is agnostic or an outright atheist.

There are several posts a day at least on these forums advocating for the eradication of more than half of the people in the United States....it is reprehensible on both sides. Never see anyone take anyone here to task for it though...kind of like no good Muslims ever take suicide bombers to task....

For all this talk of Trump being a fascist, I must say, he's easily the worst fascist ever. Everywhere you look he's being lampooned or slammed in the media, in entertainment, and by rioters in the street. A true fascist, like, say, Hitler, would never allow such criticism. Dude's would get bumped-off by the SS in the middle of the night if they so much whispered a bad word about Hitler in a bar. Trump's fascist game is piss poor.

Idiot. Too blinded to realize he's digging his own grave. Trump Nation views HIM as a Fascist; and can't wait for open season on those who burn, loot, extort and threaten Racial genocide. Dude will rue the day he wrote this stuff.

So, in this guys mind, murder is ok from a moral perspective?
Well, we devalued human life to the point that it really does not matter, so it doesn't surprise me but still...
