NAAAAAHHHHHHH...

Here's some clarity for anyone who needs it: try to imagine that your own child (or your dog, if that's more your speed) was run down by some out of control criminal. Now imagine someone comes along and tries to run interference for said criminal because they somehow identify more with the criminal than they do with the deceased.

Do you want to be that person?
I’ve already addressed that. We all know people who have lost loved ones from a variety of ways. Accidental death rests a little easier on the soul than purposeful murder.

I believe I’d be more at peace with an awful accident than if my child were run over on purpose.

Good bless the injured and families of the deceased.

One does not have to tune into CNN (or whomever) every night. It's more a gestalt thing, it's the general atmosphere created by MSM and politicians that allows for a certain amount of justification for these types of acts (e.g. the handling of ANTIFA/BLM "mostly peaceful" "mass emotional support sessions" by the MSM and "hands off" local politicians).

The irony of course is that this is the exact same soft pandering that is actually the greatest impediment to any type of improvement in the lives of a large number of folks in the black community. The MSM isn't there to "inform", politicians aren't there to "serve the people", rather they both pander, give lip service and subjectively manipulate to further their own causes. IMHO of course.

Thanks for that. I'm not being snarky, I'm being serious. I think just about any American with a moral compass is grieving right now and the more people who can be on the same page about how we feel about it, the better.

In contrast, there are some very sick, mentally ill people who seem to be very pleased with the outcome of this: https://nypost.com/2021/11/22/illino...rampage-karma/

Funny how people don't want to discuss this incident but went on and on about Rittenhouse.

Remember this moment. The trouble with many is now selective memory is.

We should all have learned by now.

If we're still searching for sickest person in the universe, we've just found another top candidate.

And yet another grand apology/excuse for the killer.

If the police had been chasing him this would have been reported from the get-go. "Suspect fleeing police plows into crowd."

The problem for the MSM is... Brooks isn't dead.

And I suspect he might be eager to talk about why he did what he did.

the scumbag who senselessly murdered people and wounded dozens with his car in a Christmas Parade was out on $1,000 bond but people are still rotting in solitary confinement over trespassing in the Capitol 10 months ago.

and now zhoe wants to eliminate even that paltry $1K bail?
