They dropped two 1.5 pound bombs, which did not hurt anyone directly. The plan was to set the building on fire and flush people out, which was a bad idea, but they didn't just level the building with explosives or something.

And if your apartment building was 5 buildings away, burned down and your children died due to their wreckless behavior, predictable outcome, wanton disregard for the lives of the innocent people all around and prevention of firefighters from responding to the scene, what would you call it? It was just an oopsie?

INAL but it actually meets the definition of 3rd degree murder is Pennsylvania I believe.

"In Pennsylvania, third-degree murder is a homicide committed with malice but without the specific intent to kill (first-degree murder) or during the commission of a felony (second-degree murder)."

When you're in just as much or more danger from the "good guys" as you are the "bad guys", and they have an equal disregard for the law, they're no longer the good guys.

Things I never said:

-The Philly PD are the good guys. -Burning the apartment blocks was just an oopsie.

The buildings that burned down were already evacuated. Nobody not in the MOVE compound died. I am not a lawyer either but I do not think attempting to forcibly evict someone would be considered malice. It is generally a legal thing for police to do if they have a warrant.

As usual I am frustrated by the lack of nuance on Lemmy. If you are not calling for the deaths of police officers you are a bootlicking fascist.
