I agree with you (surprised?) Race doesn’t enter into it. Also it doesn’t matter if the culprit is a cop or a plumber, she is still a murderer.

Why does everything have to be made about race? Do cops arrest more blacks than other races? Well, which group commits the most number of crimes? Are they supposed to stop 87-year-old Mrs. Nussbaum on her way home from Piggly-Wiggly? Nobody will talk about the elephant in the living room... blacks and Hispanics are more likely to be gang members and more likely to be suspects in violent crime.

And why do the actions of one cop reflect on all police everywhere? This country has gone nuts.

“A hall in an apartment building is well lit-——one the door opened she would have been able to see him clearly.”

If that is true, she is a liar and should be charged with capital murder.

“French is a neverTrump douchebag.”

When I see that French is the author of a particular article, that description is exactly what comes to mind. His loathing of President Trump is pathetic, and biases everything he writes.
