The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office announced on Monday.

    The usa government determined that the murdered 1 year old was hitler reborn. His death was justified apparently to the judge.

      Objectively how can anyone say it’s justified to shoot a baby? What the fuck are we doing?

    This was in response to shoplifting!? SHOPLIFTING!?

    I guess that was on me for assuming the context would make this better and not 100 times worse.

      No this was the response because she was black and shoplifting. It was 100% a race thing.

      But, didn’t you read? The officers said that the car may have went in their general direction.

      Stolen diapers for the one year old that the police slaughtered is justified to kill a black person.

      God I fucking hate this world.

      FFVII Revelation is coming. I’m stealing the black fucking materia and calling meteor myself

    Why do they even send cops to a shoplifting scene? Let the store deal with it. They have cameras, security guards, insurance.

      That’s what I don’t get. Everything in the fucking store is insured! A $20 pack of diapers is insured! The store will get that back, take it up as a loss.

      Sure you don’t want to encourage theft, but shit happens. Oops someone accidentally walked out with one item. Sure send someone out to inform the customer, maybe they legit missed it. If you can’t locate the customer or they already started to drive away, welp put that under accidental loss. It’s not that different from someone accidentally dropping a jar of pickles off the shelf. The store isn’t going to call the cops because of an accidental jar drop.

      But we all know it wasn’t the accidental shoplifting, it’s because she was black. That’s the ONLY reason why the cops were called. Because of the color of her skin. And then the trigger happy racist as fuck cop saw that and shot first and never asked questions. It’s past time there were serious fucking consequences for these fucking piece of shit pigs (cops).

      I’d fucking boycott that fucking store and the owner. Force corporate to act over this shit.

        The Buddhist perspective is that we live in Samsara, which is the cycles of suffering perpetuated by craving, aversion, and delusion. That’s the simplified version, but it really goes much deeper. But on the other side of the coin, they say that attainment involves the realization that samsara and nirvana are the same, and that the only thing that changes is your perspective. They’re not different realms.

        There are also different realms in Buddhism, ranging from various levels of hell to the world we live in and on up to various levels of heaven. But those are separate from the distinction between samsara and nirvana, and secondary to them, because an enlightened being could live in a hell realm without losing nirvana, and a deluded being could live in heaven and still be caught up in samsara.

        The Hindu perspective is that we all live in Maya (illusion), and that the ultimate attainment is moksha (liberation), meaning you no longer have to be reborn into the world of Maya.

        There are other distinctions, such as how karma functions and how it affects rebirth; and what dharma means and how it relates to karma. There’s also of course the key distinction between essential selfhood or no essential selfhood (i.e. emptiness), but that part isn’t as relevant to the discussion of whether or not “we live in hell.”

        I’d say the closest thing to what you’re thinking of is probably samsara, but it is different.

        There’s also the Kali Yuga, which is a Hindu concept, and has more to do with the era rather than the realm. It’s basically the last octile of the cycle before it reaches the absolute lowest of the low, and represents about 12,000 years of accelerating degradation and depravity before the final destruction of the world as we know it. Only after the cycle reaches the nadir is when the world begins to recover and rebuild/improve.
