When someone comes on a train and starts screaming, 'Someone is going to die today,' what goes through your mind? These were the words Jordan Neely reportedly screamed.
There's a part of me that is glad this went to trial because it demonstrated that Penny's actions were reasonable in the face of what happened on a subway full of defenseless passengers.
Daniel Penny didn't set out to kill anyone. He didn't beat the man, stab him, or shoot him - he restrained him out of a civic-minded concern for those around him.
The pendulum is finally swinging back toward the common man's point of view. There is no shame in this verdict.
