    Everything you just said after “who watches the watchers” is purely conjecture. You have no fucking idea what happened.

    Did I ever say I didn’t want fucking news about cops shooting victims? If you could read, you would see I would like to wait until there is actual information about the shooting, so stupid mother fuckers like you don’t simply make up their own “facts”.

      They never release information.
      They keep shooting people.
      You keep calling everyone else a ‘stupid mother fucker’ while their family cries.
      Your life adds up to being someone who defended systems of human authorities over human lives. This is not something anyone misses.

      So many of these stories are months or even years after the fact because unless the media gets on it, the incident gets buried immediately, and by the time the media gets ahold of it any investigation is challenging because it’s either so long after the fact or police “lost” evidence.

      It being reported immediately starts the accountability and makes it much more likely that there will be an investigation in the first place. Either you are too young to remember or just weren’t noticing, but reports of police killing unarmed minorities was exceptionally rare a few decades ago. Cops got away with anything and everything. That’s where Black Lives Matter came from, getting the mainstream media (and the justice department) to care when a black person gets killed.

        As I’ve said already, I’m not opposed in the least to the immediate reporting. I’m opposed to the assumptions made based on that limited reporting.
