Warren’s police commissioner defended his department’s decision to pursue a fleeing vehicle for nearly three minutes the day after Christmas, ending in the 24-year-old suspect’s death.
I know you need for me to hold the position that he deserved to die but I just don’t. You’re welcome to continue trying to put words in my mouth though.
I’m not particularly broken up about a gun thief dying, no. But I think we can all stop pretending like the guy didn’t have agency and drove himself into a truck all by himself.
I kind of stopped giving a fuck about stupid people dying around the time a bunch of dipshits refused a life saving vaccine during a pandemic.
That guy chose to gamble - running and maybe escaping (but also maybe getting seriously injured/die) instead of doing 5-10 for possession of a stolen firearm.
Attempting to evade the police can’t be allowed to be a blank cheque to get away with crime.
Oh, in that case he definitely deserved to die. Carry on, then.

This is just a different flavor of that.
If you’re being chased, then no, you didn’t drive yourself into something all by yourself. There was an extremely significant external factor.
