I didn't change anything. You just did it again. What a person has done


in his past doesn't make it ok for police to kill him in the present. I'm not even specifically talking about the most recent incident (since the details are still coming out). I'm talking about every time something like this happens. Immediately it turns into how the victim wasn't a good person or had a criminal history and all that stuff is irrelevant to whether he deserved to live or die. George Floyd might have been a bad guy... he didn't deserve to be killed by the police. That's what I mean about justifying homicide. And yes it is still homicide. Feel free to look up the definition. And you're still the only person trying to defend it.

" a career criminal walking up to a kid playing in front of his house and putting a bullet in his head"

You mean the instance where the killer was arrested and charged almost immediately and will die in jail most likely? What exactly do you want someone to say about that? It's tragic and it's senseless and nothing will bring that little boy back but justice will be served and his family and loved ones won't have to protest and fight and struggle in order to get it.


And I'll say it again since it seems to have not sunk in "Being outraged by one injustice does not equate to supporting or ignoring another". Do you come on here every day and post about how horrible rapists are? Does not doing that mean you support rape or don't think it's a problem?
