ok can i address that in all of these hate crimes “not complying” isn't an excuse for murdering someone. you always see all of these videos of middle-aged white women having meltdowns in stores and screaming and threatening violence at employees with virtually no repercussions but just imagine if the white woman was replaced with a teenage black guy. the situation would be seen in a whole different light by the media and the police would surely be there in an instant. what it boils down to is that there isn't any excuse for killing innocent minorities. “they looked threatening” is straight up racist. “they weren't complying” is bullshit too.
