What's this?

I hear the false comparison of "____ was arrested right away


While those shot by police have to fight for justice.
If the cop randomly walked up to this guy and shot him in the head, then you have a valid comparison.
There's a LOT more going on than the cop shot him for no reason. And THAT is why it's a little more difficult than simply arresting the cop for "obvious" murder.
Just like many other cases, there are a lot of facts to be considered. The case of Breonna Taylor is a perfect example. The cops were given wrong info and belived they were going into a dangerous home... When they entered, they were shot at.... They returned fire. A horrible and sad situation.... But, even though many want the cops arrested immediately, there's a lot more going on that we don't talk about.
Or the guy that jumped in the driver side of a cop car and tried to attack him.... He was "unarmed" and shot.
There's more of a reason they haven't been charged besides "systemic racism".
Again, if a cop walks up to someone and shots them, then we have a comparison.
