    Are you legit victim blaming the dead on a comic about the effects of institutional racism, even in how black kids have a prejudiced introduction to growing up?

    Everyone should teach their kids what to do when they encounter a wild animal but apparently you think that’s enough license to blame them when they get bitten?

      This is the weirdo anti-Linux troll, there’s not a whole lot of rhyme or reason with them.

      It has nothing to do with blame and everything to do with survival. Correctly blaming the wild animal isn’t much comfort when the damage is done.

        Hey! You there! You’re pointing out smoking causes lung cancer, go learn to be a oncologist and cure people. I’m gonna sit here and hand out cigarettes.

        That’s what you sound like

          Devil’s advocate: becoming an oncologist takes far longer than joining the police force.

        The solution is not better cops, it’s better oversight and accountability for the cops. Authority without accountability always leads to abuse.
