I will never get over how little consequence there was for anyone involved in this.
That seems to be normal over in the USA. The authorities are totally willing to do this whenever it suits them. But fortunately they are aware that more people have cameras these days.
It's so fucked up how the early reaction was to the shootings. From my modern perspective (being aware of the event, but not public opinion), I assumed that it must have been universally viewed as at least a tragedy where the shooters were clearly in the wrong.
People sent her death threats and even celebrated the killings??? Like, what the fuck?
I had no idea she was so young. Gives the photo that much more impact. That young woman's innocence was taken from her in a horrible way.
