It needs to fucking stop. The media attaches all these positive identifiers to people like Adam Lanza and James Holmes (so talented, super genius, phd candidate) but when POC get fucking MURDERED, they have all these negative adjectives attached to them. What the fuck?

I think the really crazy thing is that it takes something like Sandy Hook to get people taking about gun control and violent crime, even though these kinds of mass shootings are not at all representative of most violent crime in this country.
