"Yes, we know you know the right wing spin."
Do you know the difference between spin and fact?
Spin is showing pictures of an innocent kid, not reporting extremely pertinent FACTS about the case and investigation to sway public opinion in a desired way, making sure to call him white even if he's mixed etc...
The facts are: a call to authorities about a suspicious person, a direction to not follow him, a broken nose, a gash on the back the head, grass stains on the back of his shirt, multiple witnesses hearing someone yell for help, and a dead body.
The story is, "I was heading back to my car after be directed to, he confronted me, he assaulted me, he went for my gun, I shot him".
It's pretty simple after that.
If you don't believe the story, you have to find facts that conflict with it so you can arrest him and bring him to justice.
You don't start out by claiming the worst, riling up the country, putting lives at risk, destroying careers etc... |
