He shot someone after instigating a fight with them. Really hoping he gets buried under the prison and gets the book thrown at him. Guy is a legit degen and danger to society.

Or, he’s a dumbass and makes the other racists look bad, so they throw the book at him and claim they aren’t racists. Using this conviction as cover the next time they strip away rights from minorities.
That’s a lot of what-ifs.
I’ve seen very similar scenarios play out.
It’s a case of lawful evil vs chaotic evil, the lawful evil likes the motives of the chaotic, but cannot abide the chaos. Attempted murder, in broad daylight, in front of the courthouse, with a posted comment talking about his plans for murder. This guy is going to be made an example.
Or they let him off, creating more case law to let themselves and their failsons off when they go and do a racial murder.
They know the court of public opinion is separate from the actual power behind legal mechanisms. They don’t need to hide their racism, the stripping away rights of minorities is supported locally, by the state, and backed up by the federal government.
