The legal defense fund for the young man accused of fatally stabbing an aggressive, ex-con straphanger who punched him and his girlfriend has topped $95,000. Jordan Williams, 20, is facing manslaughter and criminal possession of a weapon charge in the death of Devictor Ouedraogo, 36, who was being obnoxious to passengers and started arguing with Williams as they rode a northbound J train Tuesday evening, a witness said. Ouedraogo, who served time in 2009 for attempted robbery, then slugged Williams and his girlfriend in the face before Williams allegedly stabbed him, a witness said. The fundraiser launched on Christian donation site GiveSendGo had collected $95,920 as of Saturday evening, with donors praising Williams, who has been compared to former Marine Daniel Penny who was indicted for killing mentally ill homeless man Jordan Neely after Neely allegedly threatened passengers on the F train last month.

Jordan is the victim of an unjust and corrupt legal system. Leftists view the criminal to be a sacred cow and the lives of innocent people are considered worthless, one anonymous donor wrote on the site. We need to support those who stand against violent chaos. Thank you, Jordan, wrote another. A Brooklyn grand jury has already begun to hear evidence in the case, The Post has learned. The day after his arraignment, Williams was fired from his job as a part-time package handler for FedEx, according to his mother, April Williams, who had started the online fundraiser Thursday, shortly after Brooklyn Judge Sherveal Mimes balked at prosecutors request that her son be held on $100,000 bail and instead released him.

Dont be surprised when people react after being FED UP with this kind of behavior on public transit. Innocent people arent putting up with it anymore. Its tragic were at a point where its coming to that :/

...or can we not say that since this isnt one of those moron pitbull threads?

I feel uncomfortable around crazy homeless, but thats no where close to justification to killing them without somebody's life being in danger. And sad seeing Christian sites behind the backing, though not surprising.

This is fucking sad.

Dude was attacked. He had the right to defend himself.

Not remotely comparable. What kind of person is trying to compare them?

I don't know that it has the right to lay claim to the title Christian anymore.

I don't know about this particular incident but self defense rights are non-negotiable for me.

It's not defending yourself if you are escalating the violence. If someone punches you, you pull a knife and stab them, that's manslaughter. Someone punches you, you pull knife and tell them to back off, they lunge at you at you and you stab them, not manslaughter.

He had the right to defend himself and girlfriend, but it wasnt equal amounts of force, so it could be considered excessive

Projection from the crowd that supports every act of treason and other crime committed by republicans, (especially Trump) and that adores, supports, and enables mass shooters and other violent psychopaths.

Hopefully he still gets convicted

I think he's guilty. I don't think he should have handled the situation the way he did

You have a right to defend yourself, but if you use a weapon you aren't legally supposed to have in order to do so then you should expect to be charged
