But aren’t some people allowed to walk out of a store with under $1,000 in merchandise without paying? Didn’t have to kill him!
Killing people is what the Police do best.
You can slice it a number of different ways, but our society is in a weird place.
Load up the shopping cart with $1000 worth of stuff and just walk out. “There’s nothing we can do”.
Go into a store and eat an apple? Well, if you’re not careful, the cops will show up and shoot you.
And taking a step back from it all ... if you’re fed up with the world, and just too tired to go on, but worry about leaving your family penniless ... well, why not go and get yourself shot by the police? At least your family will end up with a million dollars.
It’s all crazy. This society is dysfunctional on a thousand levels.
