The wording in the original tweet needs to be nominated for an award in excellence using passive voice. Like seriously... "A police officer who fired his gun at an unarmed 11-year-old boy in the child's own home. Aderrien Murry was shot in the chest."

Yeah that was so fucking weird. Obviously the poster is upset at this injustice, so is passive tense headlining so pervasive that people are subconsciously doing it even when they're trying to criticize?

My guess was that it was maybe pulled directly from some press release? But it'd be super funny if it was subconscious.

Oh God oh shit they didn't use quotes or indicate a source. Incoming 4 hour long Hbomb video to destroy this poster.
