The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office announced on Monday.
I have got to say that I am in fact surprised. What kind of shithole country approves the use of lethal force in situations where violence can be avoided? As a European I can’t read this and say “well it’s probably just one of the shitty states.” I’m sorry but I wouldn’t feel safe in any corner of a country where this is allowed.
I can’t imagine moving to a country that just shrugs off the killing of a person because they were potentially trying to flee a crime scene. The fact that the person was a baby and that the crime was stealing one pack of diapers doesn’t make this any better or worse, but I suppose that it does reveal just how bizarre and deranged the people who rule this country are.
Are we even surprised? It’s Mississippi. People there still believe Emmet Till deserved to die.

Racism plus culture of using guns to solve problems that didn’t need guns to be used to solve them.
always been like this.
