Justice for Tyler! Killed over cigs!

Edit: I just looked, and this was actually 2 years ago. Why it was suddenly listed in their popular topics screen, I don't know.

If you only read their "news" it would sound horrible, etc. Whites should go riot!

However, if you continue down into the comments, one poster points out that this guy was an active threat, trying to ram police cars, driving the wrong way down the street towards pedestrians, etc. Also, you have to visit a linked article to find out that this "kid" was really 19 years old.

Did he deserve to die? Probably not. But it's the whole "play stupid games" thing, so I'm not particularly upset. I'd be more than willing to wait for the official investigation to finish and present its findings. But we've been shown over and over that truth doesn't matter, and it's only the perception that does. So who's up for getting their piece of the pie in the name of "justice?"

Stupid comments. Everyone always questions the decisions of the police, but never the decisions of the suspect.

Stupid comments.

True, it's a Gawker/Kinja site, so 99% of posters tend to be leftards. (At least it wasn't their Jezebel sister site, that's even worse).

Even the not stupid comments are still lacking, I thought.

Yep...time to riot for a new big screen TV justice.

Posted an edit to the above, but I just now realized that apparently this was from 2 years ago (2013). I don't know why it was suddenly one of their trending stories in that case, but, yeah, my bad. Carry on (I'm ready for people to laugh at me for this :P)!
