I'm not condoning the actions of the shooters, but what did people think the end result was going to be when years of police brutality combined with the digital age to expose just how often unnecessary lethal force was being used against blacks, with zero consequences for the offenders? When people lose faith in the justice system, they tend to take "justice" into their own hands. Unfortunately that always seems to result in vengeance and the deaths of innocent people.
