MODERATORS
There are articles about this incident as the person posting was a public figure.
I also think he died later that year of "natural causes" at home, and that he was actually known for being quite a humanitarian. I remember speculation that he had suffered serious health and especially neurological damage from covid -- and no, I don't believe he was any kind of antimasker or the like. Hopefully I am not mixing up separate events.
If all that’s true, there’s a failure of someone to intervene. We have an altered mental state and threatening someone’s life for a minor nuisance. Someone really needed to see if he was serious and if he was still in a sound enough state to do things like drive or posses deadly weapons.
How would people feel if he really shot a kid for ringing his doorbell? When he warned people ahead of time? Especially if he was later found to have an altered mental state ifrom health issues?
Explanations of bad behavior should not be automatically interpreted as excuses for bad behavior.
This really should be permanently on the "make a comment" page on apps and sites like Lemmy
