Jeremy Christian was found guilty of fatally stabbing two people who prosecutors say tried to stop his racist tirade against two young black women.

PORTLAND, Ore. – A man accused of fatally stabbing two people who prosecutors say tried to stop his racist tirade against two young black women on a commuter train was convicted of murder Friday after an emotional trial that featured testimony from both women and the sole survivor of the attack nearly three years ago.

A judge last year dismissed charges of aggravated murder – which carries a potential death sentence – because of a new Oregon law that narrows the definition of aggravated murder. On Facebook, his prolific posts slammed Portland as a place so politically correct that his right to free speech was constantly under assault. Those beliefs were front and center in the courtroom, too, when Christian told the judge on the first day of trial that he would wear his jail-issued blue uniform instead of a suit because to do otherwise would be like lying.

Wait a minute I thought all evil as*holes used assault rifles

And fortunately he was convicted on state charges, so Trump can't pardon him and give him a cabinet post or make him a judge.

It would be nice to Execute him but I think that would be the easy way out for him. Instead, let him rot in prison and hopefully somebody finishes the job in there. This individual is nothing but garbage.

So disturbing

Nice

That's four people in all versus one guy and he killed two of them. Did the two women just sit there and watch the Slaughter? Professional victims🙄

good, lock him up & lose the key

Electric Chair.

This people they are literacy ❌❌

EnkiWriter THROW THE BOOK AT THAT RACIST MURDERER, HE RADIATES EVIL! PORTLAND, OR WILL BE SAFER WITH JEREMY LOCKED AWAY IN PRISON. 3 HEROS, TWO LOST THEIR LIVES PROTECTING THE TWO WOMEN HE HAD INTIMIDATED AND THREATENED.

Will Trump pardon him?

These people literally think they can overthrow the government. Won’t be shocked when they try.

That’s rare good news. My only regret is Oregon didn’t give it the death penalty.
