If I'm being serious, I don't think it's particularly likely to have been a murder. Not really any motive, presumably wasn't during an arrest where the pig's going on a power trip. My bet is that the cop was drunk and/or speeding and hit a random ass pedestrian, and someone pulled some strings to make sure the body was quietly dissposed of so that the city woudln't get sued for that cop's wreckless driving - or at least to cover a fellow cop's ass to avoid manslaughter charges.
Cops cover up all sorts of shit, it doesn't even have to have been a situation where the cop would have been in any real danger of being held accountable. Racism's really a sufficent explanation for the cover up, they hit a black man and treated hte situation like they had hit a stray dog.
Cops are legitimately terrifying drivers. I constantly see them going 60+mph through pedestrian zones just to catch up with someone who they saw go 5 over or something.
So when a cop runs someone over and then tries to cover up the murder police-involved car incident by anonymously burying the corpse, what do you say it is?

"hexbear users are a bunch of deranged violent radicals and nothing they believe has any basis or substance to it because i refuse to read or acknowledge any of it"
I love the people making wild ass assumptions in my absence, lol. A victim complex is not a good look.
What I meant is that I thought the comment I responded to was in earnest, and I was about to trash them, then I saw that it was a hexbear thread and realized that it was sarcasm.
I thought that was self-explanatory, but I was clearly incorrect.
Edit: I may have misinterpreted the intent of the comment that I responded to, leading others to misinterpret the intentions of my response.
I'm mildly aware there was some sort of beef between the lemm.ee admin and hexbear.net admin, but I didn't really pay much attention to it. Particularly when some folks wanted to defederate and the admin was like, "nah." Idk, I came from reddit. Maybe this shit is more cliqued for some than it is for me. I just represent myself, not an instance, for better or worse.
It's not you, it's just the fact 95% of lemme.ee users who come here post the most deranged racist shit, so it's rightly seen as a launching pad for right-wing trolls
Maybe I'm misunderstanding the article, but, to me, it seems to clearly state that this is a murder and cover-up, especially with the fact that it was an anonymous burial with clear identification on the body.
Ah, I mean that's fair, on a re-read, I could see that as fair interpretation, but I also think it could definitely make that kind of implication clearer if it's what they were actually going for.
Now we're dealing with too many layers of ambiguity in language for me to decipher a clear view of the intentions behind everyone's words..
Why is the news reporting this like it isn't a clear cut case of murder and cover up?
Because it's a cop...

We have no compassion and we ask no compassion from you. When our turn comes, we shall not make excuses for the terror.
Bruh, don't make enemies where they don't exist.

I don't get it, what do you mean?
"hexbear users are a bunch of deranged violent radicals and nothing they believe has any basis or substance to it because i refuse to read or acknowledge any of it"
something to that effect, probably
Wrong.

It wasn't you, but the others that responded like I was being an asshole when I wasn't.
I'm gonna be real with you bro, it's the @lemm.ee tag
It's like shouting "don't take me seriously" at the top of your lungs

I agree. In hindsight, my interpretation may have been more of a representation of my own dry sarcasm, thus the confusion.
