The videos of the incident drew comparisons to the George Floyd killing. Dvontaye Mitchell’s mother said she believed her son was suffering from poor mental health.
I’m not trolling, I read the article and a few things stood out.
This guy has two kids, I have 3 at similar ages, he has a family that loved him. The article states he had some mental health issues, but doesn’t go into how severe (I assume low level, otherwise it would have stated it). It says that he was unarmed, you know what American gun culture fucks up to many things for you, this shouldn’t even be a point of note.
The least interesting thing about a murder victim should be their race. Would it make any difference if he was Chinese, Indian or Samoan? A man was killed, his kids will miss him, is family will morn him.
As for
You know exactly why it matters.
I have an idea why you think it matters, I know why I think it doesn’t. If this was a race based killing, that can be taken into account at sentencing.

There’s a pattern of disproportionate use of force against black folks by police in the US. I’m not going to argue with you about that fact. You either know it’s true, or will not be swayed by any evidence I present anyhow. And when police kill someone who may be yet another example of this, it matters and is worth including.

Oh so you think that racism should be an aggravating factor in sentencing? That sounds like it would be inconsistent with your other statements here. I would expect something like “why is there a lesser punishment for killing a white person you hate than killing a black person you hate?”

Quit making shit up man, it doesn’t help
I know I shouldn’t engage.
But how exactly is it racist, to be concerned with the fact that a murder occurred. I don’t find murder a political issue.
Why do you think murder is political?

You’re so bad at this. Just say it with your full chest, my dude. We all know it already, and I’m sure the people in your real life know it.
Racists are always the biggest fucking pussies about honestly expressing their own world view and ideology.
Why do you think racial injustice is about politics not basic human rights and decency?
