    George Takei Retweeted Aaron Rupar

    One of the worst lynching incidents in our history was perpetrated against the Chinese community of Los Angeles when some 20 people were killed and hanged by an angry white mob. This language is unacceptable, and Chip Roy is an ignorant inciter.https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1372557069312753676 …

        From the sound of things, he is talking about punishing criminals. Death results from lynching and a common punishment for murder is death. Therefore I strongly believe he was making a reference, not glorifying lynching. A reference to the death penalty. https://twitter.com/GeorgeTakei/status/1372570060754157571 …

        Cowboy "justice" sounds good until it's directed at you.

        I think it demonstrates pretty clearly what he thinks justice means.
