Second Trumps First

Free Speech—in the intimidating form of a T-shirt—outranked by the usual.

An impressive response
"I was taught that justice is a right that every American should have. Also justice should be the goal of every American. I think that's what makes this country. To me, justice means the innocent should be found innocent. It means that those who do wrong should get their due punishment. Ultimately, it means fair treatment. So a call for justice shouldn't offend or disrespect anybody. A call for justice shouldn't warrant an apology."
The common element in the recent killings attracting notice: there's no "drop the gun" warning by the police—who also are not necessarily bothering to determine if a suspect is even armed, or a child. These police incidents are matters of shoot to kill, and later... well, questions can always be shut up later.

Though it is impressive how police are the soul of discretion when facing armed right-wing whites.
