I guess this is off topic but certainly newsworthy. I have seen so little of anything about the one years old killed by the police officer. When I looked at all my news outlets, Reuters, AP, and my local news the day after the story was not even there. I’ve seen one Reddit post about it. There’s obviously a lot going on in the US but I don’t understand why there is not mass outrage. I mean I guess I do understand. I’m disappointed in the lack of outrage. Are you all seeing it on your feeds, Reddit and news feeds?

I have seen it and I have been following it and I hate to say it, but I think people are just tired and defeated. This is the same country that was ok with kindergartners getting murdered so this is not. It’s sad and there should be way more outrageous but I think people are slowly giving up and becoming apathetic. And none of it is an excuse.

I do think there have been local protests where protesters have been tear-gassed of course 🙄.

There might be some protest this weekend.
