    Funny how the powerful have nothing against violence when it’s the military industrial complex (including the Israel extension) killing poor and defenseless civilians in the tens or even hundreds of thousands, but the moment someone tries to assassinate a tyrant, violence is abhorrent.

    I would argue that it’s the other way around: the only murder that’s ever acceptable, even beneficial to the common good, is the assassination of a tyrant whom the people cannot get rid of in any other way.

    A tyrant such as the Mango Mussolini, future fascist dictator of the United States.
