The family of a 21-year-old shot and killed by police Thursday search for answers, saying her death was senseless.

    So she deserves a death sentence? Is this medieval?

      To be fair, he never said that. He just was complaining that she wasn’t being a responsible mother, and that it wouldn’t have happened if she hadn’t done that. I would say she’s being very irresponsible, but wouldn’t say that she needed to be killed.

        Would this have happened if she did what she did in a less trigger happy country? If the answer is no then I don’t think she’s the root cause of the incident

        “It wouldn’t have happened if…” is saying that her actions caused her death. It is absolutely saying that.

      She chose to drive her car directly at a police officer, and so the officer predictably shot her. If she had went followed the commands of the police she’d still be alive and wouldn’t be in very much trouble for quite a minor crime. She chose to escalate, and here we are.

        We have no idea if that’s actually what happened. That’s what the police said happen, and they lie.

        They also said nothing about her driving at them at first - first they said she was resisting arrest. They’ve already changed their story once.

          This is why my typical line of thought with these sorts of things is to assume everything the police say is a lie until there’s dashcam or bodycam video proving otherwise.

        Is there a video or are you just fully trusting the word of a pig? I wish there was a better word for them because I like actual pigs.

          Why would he not treat the word of any pig as gospel? Cops murder unarmed black people for him.
