"comply or else -- no matter what."

i hate that i see these kinds of authoritarian, victim-blaming takes when it comes to the implicit "establishing law and order" -- you did not deserve to die, but allow me to imply you deserved to die (because of your transgressions).

the cognitive dissonance is so real this almost reads like satire.

There's a difference between "victim" and "perpetrator." This kid was not a victim, he faced consequences for his choices. The police officer will face consequences for his, as well.
