JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother's lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June "was justified," Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch's office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

Fitch didn't explain the reasoning behind the decision or what evidence was considered in a case that has sparked national backlash.

That 1 year old kid probably had a gun. Yeah, right.

The cop who gunned down a 1 year old is a humanitarian.

That's certainly one way to twist a headline for maximum dramatic effect.

The demented orange chomo is headed to Mississippi to congratulate the officer who used the second amendment solution to neutralize a one year old.

Charlie Kirk was right.

Republicans don't have a problem with this shooting, because it's gang violence.

If anything, Republicans are happy that the trash got taken out.

The only two Republicans who have commented have commented on Democrats, and on the headline.

Literally no engagement with the actual story.

Because they are truly okay with this.

The bodycam footage has been released. She tried to use her car as a weapon.

This was the actions of a good guy with a gun.

I don't believe anyone deserved to die like this. But the truth is, this mom's "friend" placed her baby in danger by charging that officer with her car.

I'm just here to remind you of what a dishonest shitbag you are.

"I don't believe anyone deserved to die like this."

Bull.
You believe the kid deserved to die like this, more than you believe the other option, which is the cop not shooting.

How hypocritical can you be?

Don't you support the guy who wanted a live human in a wheel chair murdered and live-streamed on tv?

In certain cases, all Americans should want that.

"Sic Semper Tyrannis" is the motto of Virginia,
as Virtue stands atop the body of the King.

Do you understand how that relates to American history?
Probably not.
