Furthermore... I don't think all lives matter. Has anyone shed a tear over that Jihadi John dude that was lopping off heads in ISIS propaganda videos? I haven't. The same goes for any ISIS member, people who hurt children, and a whole boatload of other scallywags...
Saying all lives matter as a response to a certain topic is exactly what Joe Burrow was talking about in that tweet. They aren't being heard on this topic. It should be understood that life is precious, but a certain segment of our society repeatedly watches as this kind of thing happens. Did that "officer" really get to go home for 5 days after murdering someone on camera? He did... That's why I can understand how they feel like they have to shout that their lives matter.
He's very likely out on bail until his trial now. If they had arrested him 4-5 days ago, he would have very likely made bail then and still would have been out of jail awaiting trial. I realize it's a slam dunk conviction, but voices aren't being heard because a murderer is getting his due process?
