In a conversation with Mike Solan, the head of the Seattle Police Officers’ Guild, Seattle Police Department officer and SPOG vice president Daniel Auderer minimized the killing of 23-year-old student Jaahnavi Kandula by police officer Kevin Dave and joked that she had “limited value” as a “regular person” who was only 26 years old.

...

In fact, as we reported exclusively, Dave was driving 74 miles an hour in a 25 mile per hour zone and struck Kandula while she was attempting to cross the street in a marked and well-lighted crosswalk.

You have the power to attack the people responsible with the same fervor that you're coming after me.

The people running shit dgaf about you and I whining on the internet.

The difference is that I'm trying to wake people up to join the conversation and you're drunk on the status quo.

Excusing the actions of murderers, rapists, and thieves isn't the way to do that bud. I'm not drunk on anything, just realistic.

I'm sorry that you're incapable of basic logic and reasoning, but clearly you've wasted too much of my time.
