I also find it deeply hypocritical that the same justice system that sentences people to
years in jail for killing an intruder in their own home, justifies people who hold a stranger down and turn his face into a bloody pulp.
I read the linked material.
So a man deliberately shoots to kill a 16-year-old would-be burglar and ends up serving three years. He was convicted of murder by a jury that rejected the lesser verdict of manslaughter.
That he only served three years seems perfectly consonant with the police shooting an innocent man 7 times in the face.
I don't see any hypocrisy there. Wrongness, yes; hypocrisy, no.
