My concern is the purpose of the tweet. It fits into a larger pattern of alt-right types immediately looking for ways to frame the victim differently, which especially frustrates me when it’s not part of what led to the interaction in the first place.

Nah just big businesses taking jobs away from black people to show how much they care about black people
They ran his plates for a different reason. What I mean is that there are several prominent conservatives that look at a simple traffic stop that leads to someone dying and rush to find something more incriminating.
Also, this is one hell of a sentence, man.

A routine traffic stop is going 7 over the speed limit.
Not a warrant on a weapons charge.
But, there should be no warrant on his gun bc the 2nd amendment shall not be infringed.
These unconstitutional infringements on our rights lead to **** like this.

It’s accurate, but it’s a little like saying John Wayne Gacy was a stand up citizen until he started killing and eating people. You can’t take the one bad part out say the rest went well when the bad part is shooting someone.
Edited to add: This is not to purposely compare the cop in this situation to a serial killer. It’s just a comparison to point out that you can’t give credit to the cop for doing everything else right when she still shot the guy.
