Pedophile Hunter Shot and Killed During Confrontation
Story by Bryan Chai •

Vigilantism is a tricky topic.

On the one hand, the very concept of an everyman rising up against tyranny and evil is deeply woven into the fabric and history of this country.

On the other hand, most (all?) Americans are not Batman \-- there is no plot armor protecting you while you go about being a vigilante.
 
And that can lead to tragic stories like this one about "Boopac Shakur" (no familial relation to the deceased rapper of similar name.)

According to the Detroit Free Press, Robert Wayne Lee, who operated a popular Facebook page under the "Boopac Shakur" moniker, was shot and killed after a confrontation with a 17-year-old and an 18-year-old on Friday.

The suspected shooter is the 17-year-old.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

If you're gonna do this stuff you have to get it right. Come up on me with false accusations like that and my tolerance of your antics will get real short, real quick.

Don't know if he forced a stand your ground situation or not, but with no law enforcement status the shooter had no way of knowing what the guy was up to.

Isn't this why we have the police? Don't play cops, maybe this sort of thing won't happen?
