No. The unhinged guy took his chances by threatening everyone. It’s called *consequences*. HE could have been then one to kill others.
It just happened to be his turn this time. Don’t do stupid things like threaten others if you don’t want payback.
This is not correct. The statements printed in this article were not threats. Unless you know of other statements made by this person during his tirade, yelling that you have no food and don't want to go back to jail are not statements that would put someone in reasonable fear for their safety.
Look, I'm NOT sorry this guy is dead. If he displayed a weapon or began to physically assault someone on the train then I would agree with the steps taken by the Marine. But the way this article is written, the vagrant did nothing that deserved a rear naked chokehold, which is a move taught in the military to incapacitate someone who is trying to kill you.
seems obvious enough.
