The Mayor of Boston Did Not Just Say That About an Armed Attacker

It’s not a mystery why Boston Mayor Michelle Wu is set to testify before Congress regarding her city’s affinity for tolerating illegal alien crime via its sanctuary status. Yet, what happened over the weekend pretty much says it all: an off-duty police officer shot and killed an armed attacker at a Chick-fil-A in Back Bay, and Ms. Wu gave condolences to the family of the criminal. The city’s police commissioner also repeated those same sentiments (via WCVB ABC 5):
 
A man armed with a knife was shot and killed inside a Chick-fil-A in Copley Square on Saturday, the Boston Police Department confirmed during a news conference Saturday evening.

Just before 5:30 p.m. Saturday, police said an off-duty officer was inside the Chick-fil-A at 569 Boylston Street when two people ran into the restaurant while being chased by a man with a knife who was attempting to stab the two people.

Why do the police always pick on people trying to kill someone? *****rollingeyes*****

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu doubles down on sympathizing with the knife-wielding attacker shot by an off-duty officer, prioritizing broad condolences over the victims. Instead of focusing on those targeted, she defends her stance, claiming that she, the DA, and the police commissioner expressed sympathies because “every loss of life is a horrible tragedy.”
