    Only an idiot can call the death of a 1 yr old justified, laws withstanding.

    We’re a deeply broken country.

      Objectively how can anyone say it’s justified to shoot a baby? What the fuck are we doing?

        They aimed for the mother and hit the baby by accident. The mother was accused of stealing diapers.

        Like, this whole thing is fucked up. Nonviolent offenses do not warrant the use of lethal force.

          It would have been justified to kill the mother for trying to take care of her baby, it would also have been justified to kill her if she had wanted to get it aborted.

          /s just in case

        Especially when his mother’s only crime was being poor and desperate? The real criminals here are wearing suits, not stealing diapers for their sons.

    Just imagine what we would be justified in doing if this is justified in the leadership class’s heads.

    The usa government determined that the murdered 1 year old was hitler reborn. His death was justified apparently to the judge.

      If it was really the case, Trump would have appointed him as his successor.

    Normally I’m here on the side of the police but in this case there is just no way. You dont get to shoot a suspect just because they’re in their car about to drive away. You need other things at play like they’re armed and an immediate threat to people before it makes sense to try and shoot someone. I dont believe for a second they were in any danger of being run over.

    This country is so culturally cooked, populism has rotted the american mind beyond repair.

    How many diapers did that baby steal? Insurance companies say each year of human life is worth about 50,000 USD, so, cynically channeling Jonathan Swift, shooting this baby that could have lived to 60 would only be “justified” if the little one were hauling away 3,000,000 USD worth of diapers. That’s about 500 metric tons of diapers.
