I saw a headline today on CNN stating that a 16 year old girl of colour, holding a knife, had been shot dead in Columbus by Columbus police... The news was all raging, in the light of the Derek Chauvin trial, 'another over the top, needless police killing'....
Well, we all know about legacy media... I could be 'holding a knife' in a knife shop, admiring it.... or I could be holding a knife, charged and ready to plunge it into another human being.
The fact, that this police officer, in the US, using split second decision making, and took, a life threatening life, to save, a non life threatening life, sits fine with me.
It really is time to stop trusting legacy media.
