we should listen to his brother:
This family is demanding changes. Fung’s brother Ivan says:
“There’s far too much gun violence. If the govt can put together restrictions on gun control it’ll help our society.”

For real - Black people that have never been enslaved should be able to kill white people who've never done enslavement because....slavery.

"Akron Police Chief Stephen Mylett said Liming and three other teens drove into the parking lot of the school and started discharging a SplatRBall gun at people on the basketball court. It is not clear if Liming fired the SplatRBall gun.
Both groups then began fighting and Liming was knocked unconscious, said police.
Liming’s family members said the suspects continued to beat him until he was dead."
So a grand jury should indict based on hearsay? Maybe there's video evidence that isn't released we'll see at trial, but it seems like you and your right wing twitterverse is jumping the gun. Best case scenario was second degree murder, but in some states the boys could be held innocent for self defense as it would have been reasonable that they could have felt threatened by someone with a gun like weapon shooting at them that entered them into a state of fight or flight.

Shop owner shoots armed assailant and puts him in the ICU almost shooting his arm off at close range with a shotgun. Appartently nothing is being done about the rash of armed robberies prompting shop owners to do their own defending.

At the end of their second year of medical school, students take step one of the U.S. Medical Licensing Exam, which measures knowledge of the body’s anatomical parts, functioning and malfunctioning. Topics include biochemistry, physiology, cell biology, pharmacology and the cardiovascular system. High scores on step one predict success in a residency; highly sought-after residency programs, such as surgery and radiology, use exam scores to help select applicants. But some students complain that the pressure to score well inhibits them from “antiracism” advocacy.
Writing in an online forum, a fourth-year Yale medical student describes how the specter of step one affected his priorities. In his first two years of medical school, he had “immersed” himself in a student-led committee focused on diversity, inclusion and social justice, and he ran a podcast about health disparities. All that political work was made possible by Yale’s pass-fail grading system for classes, which meant that he didn’t feel compelled to put studying ahead of diversity concerns. Then, step one “reared its ugly head.” Getting an actual grade on an exam might prove to “whoever might have thought it before that I didn’t deserve a seat at Yale as a Black medical student.”
The solution was obvious: abolish step-one scores. Since January, the test has been graded on a pass-fail basis. The Yale student won’t have to worry that his studying will cut into his activism. Whether his future patients will appreciate his chosen focus is unclear.
