And acted like that, we'd STILL be wrong. I'd be wrong if I acted that way.
It's not saying we know that for sure we wouldn't. I hope I wouldn't. But it's objectively wrong, and we don't do ANYONE any justice by failing to point that out because of hurt feelings, political correctness, etc.
A man that was very likely innocent of these accusations was murdered tonight. This has to be discussed and called out. So congratulations, we've created a new victim and victim's family now.
For nothing. Or at least, for bloodlust and political convenience.
