| Soundwave said: Probably easy to feel this way when you've never been put in a position where a routine situation could lead to you getting shot. That dude who was choked to death by several officers for selling CDs on a street corner or the kid that was shot to death for wearing a hoodie while walking home or that other dude who was shot to death like 8 times in front of his daughter while simply reaching for his papers ... yeah if that happened to people who speicifically looked exactly like you, I imagine you might have a different POV in that scenario. |
Easy to feel this way? I'm confused since I didn't mention how I feel. I've been to parties and gun ranges and the sort and statistically speaking I was more likely to get shot in those situations then at a traffic stop by a police officer. Shaky analogies don't win you brownie points.
That dude that was choked, sad story. Kid shot wearing a hoodie, sad story. Dude shot 8 times in front of daughter, very sad story. I would hope my POV wouldn't be weak enough to allow bias to run rampant to the point that I would no longer be able to distinguish reality from my "feels".
