Q: Comment: That the victim 'deserved' killing is not a viable argument in Oregon.   

H. L Mencken's position regarding government officials does have some followers, though.

"I propose that it shall be no longer malum in se for a citizen to pummel, cowhide, kick, gouge, cut, wound, bruise, maim, burn, club, bastinado, flay, or even lynch a [government] jobholder, and that it shall be malum prohibitum only to the extent that the punishment exceeds the jobholder’s deserts. The amount of this excess, if any, may be determined very conveniently by a petit jury, as other questions of guilt are now determined."

"If it decides that the jobholder deserves the punishment inflicted upon him, the citizen who inflicted it is acquitted with honor."
