John Gruber: ‘Let’s Call a Murder a Murder’

John Gruber, linking to the New York Times’ frame-by-frame analysis of the killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis by a mask-wearing ICE agent:

This ICE agent murdered Renee Good, in broad daylight, in front of many witnesses and multiple cameras. Trust the evidence of your eyes and ears.

As a general rule I try to refrain from both watching videos that show people being killed (I find them akin to snuff films) and commenting on breaking news of this nature (there are often too many unknown unknowns).

I made an exception and watched the video, and Gruber is right about two things: this is a murder in broad daylight, and the woman who recorded it, Caitlin Callenson, is an unflinching, steel-spined hero.
