about

From GQ:
On Thursday, August 18, a 29-year-old deaf man in Charlotte, North Carolina, was shot and killed by a state trooper. This man, Daniel Harris, reportedly was caught speeding but did not hear the sirens of the police car requesting he pull over. After Harris parked and got out of his car, the officer shot him—just a few feet from his home. Now his death has become front-page news around the world, which has trained its eye on the United States following numerous highly publicized deaths of civilians at the hands of law enforcement. And, as Harris's case shows, African-Americans aren’t the only marginalized group that's had fatal run-ins with members of the police. In fact, many deaf and hard-of-hearing people have had deadly encounters with cops, many of which were the result of miscommunication or inability to understand each other.

People with guns who represent the Law should never let a situation like this get to that point. He's unarmed. He doesn't seem to understand. There could be something.

Murder seems to be the go-to that's used way too often and, by definition, will hit minorities and those who fall outside the norm a lot more often. And guess what? The "norm" is more of an illusion; very few people fit that category anymore.
