Looking forward to a disproportionate amount of resources being dedicated to finding this guy's killer because he was popular.
America is a joke and its working class is the punchline.
I don't know if we can even argue that it's disproportionate. Anywhere you go on the web, this is all anyone is talking about. It's not media companies shoving the story down our throats - this is all the working class wants to be talking about right now. With this much public attention the response is going to be proportional to the amount of people who are paying attention to this topic.
I get that this person isn't as important to care about compared to many many other people suffering and being killed around the world, but we can't deny that a huge huge number of people are interested in engaging with this topic and some of them even want the shooter to be found.
Can't they just pin it on Luigi?
They did exactly that to him before, why not again?
Just because he's in custody?
Mollycoddles!
Just waiting for them to find a backpack and a manifesto written with the left hand of a police officer.
