Any person of ANY color killing a 5 year old of ANY color like this should fry. No insanity pleas, no plea bargaining, no bull shite. Equal media coverage for cases like this. Until we do, true justice cannot exist.

Okay, let me explain to all you Trumpistas why this murder is not getting the same treatment as the George Floyd killing.  

The reason is, black guys executing young white kids is not a "thing."  There's no pattern there.   It's not something that people have been talking about for years- black guys executing young white kids by shooting them in the head.  It's just one crazy guy doing one crazy thing.   And there's no known racial motive there.  Just a crazy guy shooting a kid.  

Contrast that with the George Floyd killing, which, in the eyes of a very large number of people in the country, is part of a longstanding pattern of police brutality, particularly toward young black men.  

That's why people are inflamed by the George Floyd killing, but when they hear about the kid being shot in the head, they say, "whoa. That's crazy."  Because that's what the guy was- crazy.  He was also black, which inflames some you Trump supporters, who want to draw some analogy there with the Floyd killing, and make some racial (racist?) point about it.  

It's just like if someone got stabbed on the street in some big city.  That's just a local story.  But if the guy doing the stabbing was shouting "Death to America!  Allah Akhbar!"  Then it's a national story.  See the difference?  

The guy killing the kid by shooting him in the head is a national story, but it has no significance beyond the fact that a guy killed a kid.   The George Floyd killing had some significance- it was part of what a lot of people see as a pattern of conduct by the police that they have been complaining about for decades.  That's why it's treated differently.   It's part of a bigger story.

And again, had the skin colors been reversed it would be constantly in the news. It would not be "just some local story" if a white guy had executed a black kid, it would be part and parcel of the America is a Horrible Racist Nation narrative, another example of how awful "Whiteness" is and why it must be eradicated. There would be more riots, more Burning Looting and Murdering, more calls for reparations, more grandstanding on the field and on the screen, more horse drawn carriage funerals. But since is was just another case of a black murdering a white, as they've done for decades, it's "just a local story" of no real significance.

Whatever we do let's not question why someone this crazy has a gun...

If this isn't big news then that's even more worrying.

And like clockwork, white man kills a POC it is racism.  POC kills a caucasian gun control.
