    Reading about it

    Looks like they did more than you. There is indeed quite a bit of evidence that suggests he was guilty, which you'd realize if you weren't just discounting all of it as surely sprouting from white supremacy. But our justice system works on the presumption of innocence, or at least it's meant to. That it failed to, that our justice system is structurally flawed, that's what's racist -- not the real possibility he might have been guilty. Lol, literally nothing in this world has a zero percent chance, and if you think it does, you're honestly blinded by your fucked up pseudo-ideology.

    Learn what structural racism means, and until then don't call yourself a leftist.

    Anyway I g2g have a life. Peace out.
