    I’m not white and from now on I’m even more likely to get shot than before.

    I’d argue that with him alive and continuing to spew his hate and calls for violence, that probability would have unfortunately continued to go up. It went up by a bigger margin with his death sure, but it wouldn’t have stopped with him not being shot.

    That being said, I do feel very bad for you and all those affected.

      I mean… a traffic accident would’ve caused less problems than a gunshot wound…

      I don’t want anyone to die of a gunshot wound, too many ways for the media to spin it. Just anything else please. Falling on the pavement, choking on food, heart attack, like anything is better than getting shot. You can’t bcecome a martyr if you weren’t murdered.
