I'm becoming a firm believer the wild west had it right.

We did this just a small bit in a couple states when America was on fire from the peaceful protests dead criminal woman abuser riots. We passed legislation that would not bring charges should you plow over a rioter that was intimidating you or putting you in danger.

Fact remains, I'll bet you any amount of money this particular crime stat goes way down. Like it or not.

permitted the killing of motor cycle riders who rob & kill citizens

Can't find any news article or really any context that actually says this is true. Brazil does have self-defense exemptions for homicide, just like anywhere else, but, to my knowledge, the legal system here doesn't allow people to just outright kill thieves willy-nilly. Seems like bullshit to me.

I’d drive around with a sawed off shotgun in my lap. Be great if they’d get shot in the balls.

Only one problem, mentally ill and criminals will kill for sport not for justice. And did you forget the BLM.
