No.. cops getting away with murdering unarmed innocent people. like sleeping 6 year old kids, or 12 year olds with toy guns is what set the tenor for these kind of incidents.
The shooter of the 12 year old has not gotten away with it, he was indicted. Please reference your shooting of sleeping 6 year olds by by cops, (I could not find them) I would appreciate an update.
Steve Fishman, Weekley’s attorney, claimed that even though he did not dispute that his client pulled the trigger and killed the girl, “there is absolutely no evidence, none, that’s in the least bit credible, that Officer Weekley knowingly created a danger or, more importantly, intended to cause injury.”
Thanks for the link /u/nickcobb. I remember the mistrial (2013) and subsequent retrial (2014) for murdered sleeping 7-year-old Aiyana Stanley-Jones during a botched police raid.
Agreed most unfortunate. But to say "leaders" and "celebrities" set the tenor for violence and retaliation is akin to blaming video games or that hip hop music the whippersnappers get jiggy with.
Most unfortunate, many influential leaders and celebrities, with their recent comments and displays have set the tenor for just such incidents.
