Ah, good old “both sides” argument. Half the reason we are in this mess.

I’ve no love lost for cops, but I also have no sympathy left in me while I wonder if I’m going to be able to keep my job, access healthcare, and generally exist as myself in society without someone decided to attack me. Fuck him, fuck the cop. There are no innocents in this story.

So I’m going to take some catharsis in that one of the people who would likely have murdered me or anyone like me in the future is gone.

Yeah I feel that.

This story, though is great: a piece of shit gets killed, and I don’t have to care about what happens to the killer either. This isn’t some guy like Luigi who did it because of how he was treated, it’s a cop. And, given the odds, he’s a giant piece of shit anyways, he just happened to do something useful.
