It still could be used as a argument by the right in that way.
And it would be a dumb fucking argument considering the 3-4 other videos that all corroborate this one. Stop being retarded and proposing half-assed "what-ifs". Besides the fact that him editing it would be tampering with evidence and IS ITS OWN CRIME. Yeah, he's just gonna admit to illegally tampering with the video to make himself look worse to create reasonable doubt..... when other videos clearly show the incident as well. Ffs, I know these people are morons but you're taking the cake.
There is really no need to use slurs.
Yeah, I don't subscribe to that euphemism treadmill bullshit. Maybe save your outrage for things that are actually offensive, like our government murdering people in cold blood, not fucking words. This neutering of our language is bullshit and yes, some things are fucking retarded and need to be called out as such. Trying to defend the shooter here is fucking retarded. I stand by what I said.
And this is why liberals hate other liberals. Were discussing a fucking murder and you're over here complaining about language. Unless you're this perfect idealized liberal, other liberals will take the time to bring you down instead of the much more pressing and bigger issue.
Seriously, fuck off with this retarded fucking shit. We NEED words for when things are so ass backwards and anti-logical. I'm not gonna sit here and wish that we "unalive the meanies". Grow a fucking spine.
Also, dont call me a fucking liberal. Yall are bunch of politicucks.
It is immoral, ignorant, and shortsighted but i fail to see how it has anything to do with retardation. If you arent using that term clinically, which is antiquated these days anyways, then you are using it as a slur. Which is very unnecessary. I'm not mad but i do think our use of language matters. Your use of that word also makes you look shortsighted and ignorant. Your defense of it makes you also look immoral.
Edit: my point being we already have much more descriptive words for this and the use of slurs makes you look just a ignorant as them.
Now go make yourself useful and kill a fash
