The California Justice Department announced today that it has found no cause to file chargesagainst a Los Angeles police officer who, while aiming at a suspect, shot and killed a 14-year-old girl hiding in a department store fitting room.

Fourteen-year-old Valentina Orellana Peralta was picking out a quinceanera dress with her mother just before Christmas in 2021. She was shot and killed by a bullet that ricocheted off the floor.

    I don’t think you get the point.

    You can say things like “Y’all rape is bad” and we can make laws to also say rape is bad but not enforce it on a few people, then shit is fucked up.

      That’s a false equivalence.

      The comment they made is about a subset of people, not just a few people.

      It’s like saying “Rape is bad” and then someone coming along and saying something like:

      “Mexicans think rape is good. You don’t know Mexicans”

      Rape is bad, period.
