The most hilarious and saddest part of this kind of thing is that they always deny their racism while altering facts with racial bias in mind at the same time (edited to better reflect point) Take these two “headlines”.
Three men gang up on another man who was jogging and shot him twice with a shotgun, murdering him in the street of their neighborhood.
“Oh my god those men are savages, how could they do such a thing?”
Former Cop, Son and a potential third man shoot and kill black man who they thought robbed others in the neighborhood.
“Oh wow, that must’ve been scary to have to defend yourself like that.”
^ the above it meant to represent the way people react differently when arbitrary specifics are mentioned when compared to ambiguity.
The way the media handles it is just as bad as how the already racially prejudice audience is. It’s disgusting that simply the color of someone’s skin is enough to completely change the story.
^ this is meant to show that the action of diverting a narrative to fit someone’s prejudice is disgusting and the fact that these narratives are almost always driven by race is even more so.
Edit: (edited to better fit my point) if you’re going to make an argument about this case, it’s always good to have sources so you don’t look like a fool trying to defend what the police themselves have called a murder.
Edit 2: since apparently my point is unclear, read this:
“The way media and individual people spin their stories to fit their own narrative, which is widely done by those who have racial prejudice, is disgusting. Stick to facts and report the story in its entirety”. Better?
Final edit: it amazes me how little people actually read. I’m not accusing anyone of being racist, racially motivated or whatever. I’m not even giving an opinion on the case itself. I’m saying that the way media and individual people handle this shit to fit a racially biased narrative is stupid and pathetic. Stick to facts and learn to fucking read.

It's disgusting how many people defend the killers.

I have a mixture of emotions. I want to laugh but at the same time, it's not funny.
