Hear me out.
The portland shooter kills a Trump supporter in a coordinated strike, they were literally searching for someone from the right-wing to kill.
They were hoping that the right-wing would retaliate.
We didn't, so they made him into a left-wing hero.
Then they used the police to kill him, a very symbolic death with the intention of trying to make the left-wing retaliate.
I'm not saying the police were at fault, I'm saying they created a circumstance that lead to the police killing him.
I could've worded that a lot better.
