    Brian Thompson killed a whole bunch of people. That’s, to me, the more salient comparison to make.

      I agree, it’s jumping to conclusions. One case has just been adjudicated, the other has barely even begun. That’s like comparing someone’s brownies from before they went in the oven to someone else’s from after they came out.

      “Nah bro, this sh*t’s gooey AF. Doesn’t even seem edible. 0/10”
