There isn’t much scrutiny into Penny though. “Former” Marine at only 24? Seems a little odd, no? Why no deep dives into that? Of course there’s probably a very good reason though, while everything the victim ever did will be reduced to “over 40 arrests, of course he was a menace!”.

I don't disagree that being homeless is going to attract a lot of minor arrests like public drunkenness and urination and tresspass. No issue there.
It was specifically the assault arrests that stuck out to me, and the reason I mentioned them.
And yeah, maybe Penny is a white supremisist. But then why were 2 other random people helping him hold the guy down?
All of that is to say - it sucks that instead of a clear statement on what happened the MAGA crowd is doing their "there is no more rule of law and vigilantes are heroes!" and the left is "a white man murdered a black man for asking for water!" when neither appears to be the case.
