    How else can one react to a person defending a violent criminal? Maybe you should remove such comments instead.

      First, a guy carrying a toy sword is not “a violent criminal”.

      Second, even if they were, defending them doesn’t break any of the community rules.

        First of all, it’s not a toy sword according to the law. Second, that guy was carrying it unsheathed. Third, he didn’t have a good reason to carry. But fourth, the most important thing, that guy is a known criminal who already served four years for burglary. He broke not a “community rule”, he broke multiple laws and is a known offender.
