- gowld 6y agoThat was a horrific crime committed by a psychopath. That's nothing compared to the systemic comprehensive demonization of black men and boys by police, prosecutors, judges, and civilians.
- lifeformed 6y agoNo one is claiming otherwise. It's disingenuous to take a real-life issue ("cops kill black people disproportionately") and strawman it by applying a cutoff filter to it ("cops only kill black people"). It's like responding to "smoking kills" with "but my grandma smokes and is still alive".
