They were sexually abused by their parents. This situation is a lot more nuanced than "violence is never the answer," in my opinion.

Infinitely. And what kind of black and white thinking is “violence is never the answer”…..this isn’t kindergarten

I remember having this discussion on that video of the Black man whacking the white kid in the face with the Twisted Tea for constantly saying the N Word. Some dude on a live stream chat (he was hispanic) kept telling me (a Black man) and the White streamer that he was wrong for turning to violence. And we were like "Are you FOUR!?"

And the dad was going to fucking kill them they had no way out truly

[automaticpeople]

Look into their dad. I’m not going to say they did the right thing, but if it’s all true, I can’t say I blame them either.

The mom was sexually abusive too

[mjgchick]

The mom was molesting them as well. Taking her clothes off in front of them and asking Erik if she can check his penis for AIDS as a minor.

this is news to me....

I didn’t know about this. I actually watched a documentary on them recently and it didn’t even mention it.

[evilpinkmonkey]

every post on here about a rapist is people having violent fantasies about them getting death penalty but these people actually murdered their abusers and people get self righteous about it?

[harrypotentilla]

totally ffs we need to emphasise court actions so fucking much in the west (but esp USA). anything but murder.

[michaelscott]

yea idgi like we want all these people dead supposedly but we’re supposed to wait for victims to be killed at the hands of their abusers in order for them to see any justice? make it make sense

[ahkna]

I think they did the right thing.

[pyro_semi]

They were abused by their dad so the situation is a lot more nuanced than that.

Murder is not the answer but their whole case is sad.

Oh!! I literally was asking because I tried to google and all that came up were the basics of the case and conspiracies. Thank you for explaining.
