I remember that case of John Crawford. Not only was Crawford killed, but a woman with children died of a heart attack when she saw the police shoot Crawford.

That case happened around the time Tamir Rice was shot and killed by police for playing with a toy gun.

All kinds of people, including white kids, either unarmed or holding toy guns, are shot and killed by police.

What I hate are the double standards on both sides. The Left shrugs it off when it happens to someone who's white, and many people on the Right shrug it off when it happens to someone who isn't.

Yeah. Nobody should be shrugging it off. But everybody has their agenda. Mine is “hey can we kill fewer unarmed people?” Nobody seems to like it.
