    Good to know he definitely wouldn’t have killed anyone if not for that…

      This exact, particular death was a direct fucking result. It has nothing to do with some fantasy land theories, it’s simply the truth that this particular person would have not been hit by the officer. Could something else have happened also bad? Literally an impossible question to answer and an equally moronic question to ask. We are not talking in whataboutisms, this is a literal cause and effect of a particular incident that could have been avoided. But nah let’s play fucking butterfly effect.

        She wasn’t hit by the officer though, she was hit by the fleeing stolen truck.

          You’re engaging in nitpickery, but yes, this wreck was a stolen truck crashing into an innocent woman’s vehicle, not a police car crashing into an innocent woman’s vehicle. You are correct, but she is still dead.

          The driver of the stolen vehicle went the wrong way on the freeway, to elude cops that were chasing him, over a crime of no significance compared to a person’s life.

            I don’t think its nitpicky to correct someone who said that the women had been hit by the officer.

              If I pull a fire alarm in a crowded theater and a person dies in the panic because they were trampled, it’s still my fault because the danger wouldn’t have existed without my actions. if the police hadn’t engaged in a reckless and pointless chase so they could feel like an action hero, this woman would still be alive - in case I need to spell it out for you, the theif wouldn’t have felt the need to drive into oncoming traffic without an entire department chasing him down - and they would’ve still apprehended the criminal. real life isn’t like GTA where if you hide in an alley for a few minutes your wanted level disappears.

              another point: if the cops couldn’t find the criminal without engaging in a deadly chase, we still have the same conclusion of cops being absolute pig shit at their supposed job. ALL cops are bastards, especially the murderous psychopaths that wanna feel like speed racer in between harassing minorities and shooting dogs
