In case you are all hung up on argot, I use "da thug" so there will be no confusion that I include all violent criminals, okay? (BTW, the term "thug" comes from India.)

"My guess is, also, that this shooter will consider this his moment of greatest glory, and spend his life trying to find other 'street thugs' to shoot."

From time to time, people write in about these incidents, and try to find reasons why self-defense should not be employed, even when the attacker is shooting at a would-be victim. Usually, there is an undertone of "poor sick puppy" provided to da thug who commits attempted murder. However, your's is an outright PRO-THUG viewpoint and ANTI-VICTIM outlook, slathered over by some hot-wired race-card crap. At least you are honest about your rather stinky human outlook.
