I live in Oakland. Crazy people are constantly yelling threats at nobody. I guess we can just kill them now. Also, given that the event could start a race war, maybe Penny should have taken extra care not to kill the guy. Homicidal maniacs now can satiate their bloodlust with the homeless and mentally ill. It's a fact now, as far as I can tell.
US Marine Danny Penny (with no criminal record) simply leapt up from his seat and thought, just for fun, he'd strangle him an unarmed black man who was innocently behaving himself—right in front of a dozen witnesses.
The Penny case means it is now open season on the mentally ill. Black or white.
When you threatened others, anyway could potentially take you down. Other train riders were so grateful to Penny because of what he did.
I have seen in Portland downtown crazies. No one wants to be around them but at least they did not threatened others in confined space.

The guy died in hospital not under the chokehold of Penny.
Open season?
Intending to make the guy who was threatening to kill people the victim?
If he wasn't armed and wasn't assaulting anyone, he was the victim.

Is that how you want to leave it?
I'd take out the words "innocently behaving himself" and replace them with "disturbing the peace and menacing other passengers." ...Golden!
