I’m not surprised that there are protests. The actual moment of death is online for all to see. Yes, it was satisfying, watching some big mouth thug get his comeupance, but when it comes to his group; thugs, felons, convicts, random destroyers; they seem to be a protected species by several highly paid Attorney Generals, from coast to coast.
This is how things are, now in year 2023. Ask any Alvin Bragg. That anarchist/ progressive impulse won’t be going away any time soon.
The Marine’s trainning kicked in, and then he acted.
Maybe too much so.
In some ways analogous to the Boston Massacre.
The British soldiers were surrounded by a mob of people acting as this homeless man was, being goaded with yelling and insults (Fire! Fire!) hit by chunks of ice, guns drawn and demanding order but getting no cooperation or respect. One of their weapons discharged, not pursuant to an officer’s order but instead apparently out of fear.
In this case obviously the mob of Boston was condensed down to one disorderly man.
