Oh dude.
First off, the commander made a point to mention these men and women were kids. 18 year old kids. And 24 year old kids. These despicable disgusting human legal adults, he went out of his way to mention were just kids. Kids who make stupid mistakes. He was absolutely defending them. At the very least downplaying their actions. It's not normal for a commander to get up on the podium and tell us how kids make stupid decisions with such crimes. Ever. For anyone.
"“I think some of it’s just stupidity,” he said in the news conference. “You know, people just ranting about something they think might make a headline. At this point, we don’t have anything concrete to point us in that direction (of a hate crime), but we will keep investigating.”"
They literally were yelling "#### white people" while scalping and burning a disabled white person while making him drink from a toilet. But it was probably just stupidity, you know those 24 year old kid hijinks that we all got up to and not a ####ing hate crime...Yep nothing at all pointing to it being a hate crime, can't think of a single thing here.
These adults went out of their way to kidnap and torture a disabled person for a day. They tried to extort his family. Again, they tortured a person for a day. And the cops called it stupidity and kids making stupid decisions. They got treated the same way by the police as the kids who broke into COP and went down the bobsled track...An unforunate incident made in the heat of the moment by stupid kids...not an act of some of the most pure inhumane #### you'll see on facebook.

Find me one time the crime, a heinous crime committed by legal adults, was broadcast online, shown to the public, and the police force came out and made sure to mention it was just stupid kids making poor decisions
Now yes, there's still race issues and yes, there's still benefit of the doubt given to white people that often doesn't extend to other races. But that doesn't change the fact that the commander is a piece of #### for trying to downplay this as boys will be boys. Nor do you need to pretend like the commander's actions are normal. Just because Brock Turner, a piece of #### in his own right, original got off doesn't mean you should be excusing the action of this commander. And look at the #### he's done, the alt-right is eating that up. They love it. They're feeding off the words of this idiot. Actions like the commander are splitting America just as much as the alt-right are.

Seriously dude, grow up. Stop trying to make this situation about you and your agenda. It was disgusting action by reprehensible individuals and the piece of #### commander, the same commander of a city where there are 2 killings a day, was pulling the boys will be boys defense for this piece of ####s. It's disgusting, anyone of any type of any bit of humanity should be disgusted by the actions of those involved and stop trying to push their agenda.
You should really, really, really be ashamed of yourself.
