Just watch our media machine fire up every time there's a video of a Black person getting flat out murdered, incontrovertible evidence that the American tradition of lynching has survived to the modern age: the mission is to make it OK for people who would rather not give a shit.

Watch it happen.
Watch it happen.
White people with guns can never be the aggressor, even if they gave chase.
Unarmed Black people can only be the aggressor, even if they wind up dead.
Aggressive, aggressive corpses, lying beside blameless men with guns.

The mission is to not give a shit that it happened, and people who want to not give a shit always succeed. Any excuse will do.
