It's the natural emotional tendency to assign blame or a single cause, but there isn't one, and it's foolish, but I suppose it helps people process, but you end up with these false assertions and narratives, like if he had security he would have been ok, or if he had a pistol, or if his boys were carrying, if he didn't tell dude to leave. He was out there like that because that is who he was. He was living his life. The odds are higher in that dynamic, yes, but he understood that, and he would not be who he was if he ran and hid, never came to his neighborhood (check even his unofficial name) or had 30 dudes holding him down the on the block. There was no way to predict the alleged killer would empty out that day, that second, that minute. He walked up and emptied out, he looked like it wasn't the first time, there isn't much to be done about that, in a practical sense. I know that's hard to accept.
And the whole "killed in your own city" or by your own people is so misleading and just divisive, almost every homicide in the WORLD occurs inter race, and in the area where both the killer and victim lived. It is entirely meaningless beyond pure symbolism that Nipsey or Bank Roll or whoever was killed in their own city.
