      Um… lets not target someone who is potentially just unwittingly being a useful idiot.

      Not everyone understands the entire situation, given how much propaganda the media has to make people sympathize with this mass murderer CEO. Whoever gave the tip is an idiot, and should be ashamed of themselves, but lets not incite violence against them, they are just a victim of propaganda.

        Nah man, zero tolerance for snitching. Period.

        To elaborate:

        1. cops are allowed to lie to you if they think it’ll help their investigation. You can’t trust a word they say.

        2. You have no idea how information you give will be used or who it will be used against.

        3. mind your own fucking business

          -1) think you’ll get a nice $50k reward for selling out a guy, then find out you didn’t do enough to actually qualify for it.

            Some policeman’s brother happened to call in the tip an hour before conveniently along the same roadway and gets it instead.

        No, Lemmy will crucify that person even if they had no clue about the situation at all.

        Lemmy is all in on inciting violence

        Edit clarification, I agree with you.

            Of course, but we are here on Lemmy. When you say “let’s not…” On Lemmy, you’re addressing Lemmy

          If you want to participate in threads where half the comments are deleted, go back to reddit.

          We aren’t inciting violence, the fat cats and their bottomless greed are.

            Huh? A random person, who may not have known the news or reasoning, may be the target of the Internet’s ire. That hypothetical sucks, and is all I’m discussing. Sure, they possibly did know the story, but remember millions of people are far less online/news attached than most here.

            Edit be mad at ceos all you want, I’m not discussing that here. I’m discussing the potential person who spotted the person of interest
