man I have said that for yeeeeeeears...gangs are no different than terrorists or insurgents by every definition of those terms. i’d be ok with shooting them on site
They can be protection rackets — are you going to massacre everyone who got coerced into their clutches, especially when the fear was of a rival racket?
although i’m not sure they have the necessary evidence to prove this guy’s was actively involved in the gang so I think this case is really a stretch
