Racist Topic of the Day: It's all about that "State of Miiiiiiind"

Looking for yet another way to excuse the cold blooded murder of yet another unarmed black male by the police? Look no more - with just zero hours of training, you too can become a psychic decipherer of that magical, that mystical, that oh-so-hard-to-fathom black teenager state of miiiiiiiind.

Who knows what they're thinking, amirite?

In a debate with somebody wrongly claiming that it was - pshaw - wrong to shoot a black teenage CRIMINAL (always capitalize criminal so they can see and FEEL IT)? Try this topic on for size: Because Mike Brown pushed a store clerk, he was probably in the state of miiiiiiiiind to fight with and attempt to murder a police officer!

It's the State of Mind rag!

It's easy, everybody. Still don't understand? Let's try an analogy:

Example for Learning: because I pet my cat, I also try to pet the lions at the Lincoln Park Zoo.

Makes sense, right? A cat and a lion are kinda alike, right?

How about one more:

Example for Learning: Because I can microwave a Hot Pocket, I can probably be a sous-chef in a Michelin Star restaurant.

They're both cooking, see?

Try your own, and remember to use the state of mind argument whenever you talk about a black victim. After all, they're all liable to be angry and aggressive at some point, and nobody can say you're racist when you're only trying to get to the "truth" (haha! just kidding!) of that good ole STATE OF MIIIIIIIIIND!
