This is an interesting piece. A lot of pro-police people are trying to justify the murder of Stephon Clark by pointing out that he was an asshole on Twitter and claiming that people, specifically black women, shouldn’t be commenting on this case because of the victim’s personal history. I find it despicable the lengths to which people go to justify police murder. If I went out and shot someone eight times, do you think people would be defending me by pointing out that the victim posted stupid shit on Twitter? Of course not, so why do police get a pass?
