Hmm, I think your position is well-founded. I agree - shooting people usually created division and doesn't solve the underlying problem. However, that doesn't mean that it has to be like that in every case.
I personally propose to wait a few years before judging. It is very against the spirit of the Internet, but you raise a valid point - there is very good ground to suspect it will have negative consequences.

You know how a trial works, right?
He still has to stand trial and be convicted by a trial of his peers.
Even if the evidence is overwhelming, the jury still has to issue a verdict.
It would hardly be the first time there’s a hung jury or even a nullified jury.
You need to learn how the justice system actually works, instead of watching law and order.

Whether you think the person he killed deserved it or not is irrelevant, giving a free pass because of that sets an extremely dangerous precedent
It's just patently absurd. It's an angry mob. They probably didn't even know the victim. They could turn on you, me, or each other.

I get the sentiment, and yes rule of law is what we should strive for.
But if somebody murders an active serial killer, my internal desire for practical improvements to human well being keeps me from getting too upset about it.
And yes it’s illegal, and if the system is working as intended, the assassin will go to prison. Maybe the people intervene via jury nullification, maybe not. But if conditions are bad enough, individuals can choose to live as a hero in prison rather than as a desperate anonymous poor person.
I don’t want to see children lose their parents even if their parent is a scumbag CEO, but I want human civilization to heal and flourish even more.

Health insurance companies are already judge, jury, and executioner. Thousands of people die every year because they can't afford health insurance and I guarantee I'm not the only one in here who's had family die that way.

People can have whatever opinion on whether the shooter was right or not. But the person who modified a gun, shot his target thrice in the middle of a city, left a James Bond style message on the bullets, and rode off into the sunset without leaving a single clear photo on any nearby camera is obviously not the man who got arrested eating a meal in broad daylight with a gun and a written confession conveniently packed in his bag.

Correct, no one would support Luigi for murdering a homeless person. Support for Luigi is a social proxy. People don't feel like they can change the system peacefully anymore. When that happens, you're right, an angry mob can become judge jury and executioner. It is up to the system to reform itself or fail, not the masses to calm down.

Ah yes, check my comment history so you can find out that I checks notes... care about the environment that we live in? Biggest gotcha ever.
I am implying that this is not a black and white issue no matter how much you want it to be, you can't remove an essential part of the equation and state that it's different that way. That's the same fallacy as people who say shit like "Gay rights or good economy?" as if they're mutually exclusive.
-
You can care about the environment at the same time as not supporting a rabid cult hellbent on ruining daily people's lives for attention. Just Stop Oil are a cancer that ruin the credibility of all environmental movements.

In the grand scheme of things he's going to jail
Jury nullification will not work and if you think it does you are delusional
In the real world people don't excuse murder because it was a CEO that died

The bombed town is the amount of people shamelessly promoting senseless violence

We're getting to conspiracy theory levels of fear here, I'm pretty sure you have less information than the FBI. Just say that you like rich people dying and stop making excuses
-
So you have family die from health insurance and your best response is to murder people. I dunno that just seems a little backward
