Bubba Copeland shot himself in front of police on Friday, days after he begged 1819 News not to expose his private life.

    It’s part of the cognitive dissonance peppered throughout these comments: championing empathy, showing none.

      I never said I was not empathetic. I am empathetic (see my comment above). That does not mean that I cannot also appreciate the irony in the situation. I wish this person had made different choices, and could be happy with who they were. That is not what they chose to do, and it cost them their life. There is an important lesson in that, and it cheapens their lived experience by not acknowledging where it caused them to end up.

      You can have empathy for the guy while also recognizing that he definitely didn’t kill himself because liberals found out and wanted to love and accept him.
