Mine was George Floyd. When I saw so many people stand up and say that man deserved death over a bounced check I knew they lost their damn mind.
The idea that death is an acceptable outcome from being suspected of any minor infraction underpins the conversation around basically every police killing, with every single person on the side justifying it being tacitly accepting of that premise.
It's lunacy.
A few years after 9-11 for me. I grew up watching my classmates sing songs about indiscriminately bombing people in Afghanistan, and news reports of people being beaten or killed in the US for wearing any clothing that appeared Middle-Eastern. It made me sick to my stomach.
Nobody deserves to die... Even if they're.. uh... charlie kirk... No I think that one's ok.
My take on Charlie is that I'm not surprised.
My take on Charlie and similar killings is that we're in a war, and war is never nice. I don't believe anyone should be assassinated, but I also don't believe we're playing by the rules of civility when we have hundreds of people being disappeared every day by masked agents on our street; and the government is tweeting out Nazi propaganda.
I heard his neck just did that
