    It’s a BBC article posted about Australia posted in worldnews, you don’t need to bring America up. Bring on the downvotes, losers.

      There’s some context here you might be missing.

      The hero points the shotgun at the murderer but it appears he either didn’t know how to use it or wasn’t prepared to shoot someone.

      There’s a third option that would be lost on Americans but obvious to everyone else: seeing that the attacker was no longer an imminent threat, the guy chose not to execute him.

      The comment I replied to has a very American perspective, and its obvious to everyone who is not American.

        Wow what a uniquely American idea, only Americans believe in capital punishment and execution.

        You are truly a critical thinker, and your biases against a non-monolithic grouping are not delusional at all.
