Today's big question: Is it ever ok to do the wrong thing, for the right reason? We're talking about vigilantes on the show today.
My guest, Sam Walker, is a multi-award winning journalist, broadcaster and podcaster. Her show, American Vigilante, is about a man named KC. KC is the American Vigilante. A hugely complex, intelligent, contradictory man who could save your life but end it too. He leads a group of violent men standing on the blurred line between right and wrong, between revenge and redemption. A man you want on your side when it all falls apart. American Vigilante is true crime, but so much more. It’s saving abducted children, it’s stepping beyond the law. It’s rescue missions, assassination attempts and last-gasp protection. It’s all the stuff you hope never comes to you, until it does.
We delve into the ethics around vigilantism, the American spirit that seems to support this rogue work, and we find ourselves going around and around the question landing somewhere in that murky gray area, which should really be familiar by now.
