Any action can be justified in a certain light. The universe demands balance. Get too totalitarian and the propensity for violence against the government grows. I don't know what this dude's specific beef was with the Tippecanoe courthouse/judge and the cops, but the more steps this country takes towards a police state that go unanswered, the greater the backlash will be.
Estimates say we've killed over a million Iraqi civilians. Common sense dictates that if any of the survivors didn't hate us before, they certainly do now.
If you were an innocent Iraqi minding your own business and this super power suddenly blows up your family in a drone strike, who here wouldn't gladly strap a bomb to their chest to get revenge in any way they could?
Statism is a monopoly on the use of force. The more power they get/give themselves, the more power they use.
For example, this woman who had her son flashbanged in the middle of the night would be well justified in hunting down every member of that SWAT team.
In a land of laws and justice, the SWAT team would be punished, but we don't live in that world... Every branch of our government and media, all of our supposed safeguards, have been bought and paid for.
If our government behaved themselves and took the Constitution seriously, our society as a whole would be much more peaceful and content and not need to turn to anarchy and dark thoughts of violence against the unanswered injustices.
