I’m only surprised the cops aren’t pushing their usual line:
Police Spokesman: The suspect in this police involved shooting was no angel. Confidential informants have talked about how often her mother was up at night, imagining what trouble her little baby might be in this time. How many times she cleaned up her messes, only to find her in the same trouble all over again. The absolute filth the suspect covered herself with under that diaper day after day …
Reporter: But didn’t an officer shoot and kill the mother also?
Police Spokesman: I can’t comment on an ongoing investigation
/s
In all seriousness, this isn’t a tragedy, it’s a travesty. It’s a predictable and recurring outcome our society has been engineered to accept because it’s easier and cheaper than changing a system that benefits those already wealthy and in power. I use this gallows humor to cope with it, with the casual brutality and racism that caused it. To live with what none of us should be able to live with. Fuck this shit.
