    Usually if it was a lynching there would be signs of struggle/other physical trauma. I don’t know all of the facts but am open to either possibility, but San Francisco seems like an unlikely place to cover it up. Sometimes suicidal thoughts come on very quickly. It has happened to me. Thankfully that was a very long time ago.

        I’m in the avenues and our school community is ocean beach. It’s a weird conservative fake libertarian vibe lately.

      The article states the medical examiner declined to confirm the cause of death actually, so whether or not there were signs of struggle is still up in the air. Why might the examiner have declined to confirm? Is that a common?

        They usually don’t confirm anything until they’ve completed their examination/investigation. That can take way longer than people think. There was a woman here who committed suicide and people were speculating that her ex actually killed her so the case was getting a ton of attention, and it took months for the coroner’s office to release their final results. Another woman definitely was murdered by her husband a couple years ago. Her remains were found last September and the results were just announced a couple weeks ago. It’s totally normal that they wouldn’t say anything in this case yet.

    I’m not denying that the media is controled by horrible powerful people, but to claim this was a lynching appears to be bullshit. I’m gonna ban this community. I like the agenda. But spreading disinformation makes you just as bas as msm.

      First, this is just a callous thing to say and undermines a very real fear for people all over. Perceived stereotypes should play no role in how likely a crime may have been.

      Second, San Francisco, for all the reputation it has as being progressive and left leaning, may be those things on average, but individually has an extremely wide range of polarized views. Especially if you consider neighboring towns, the progressive aspects of the Bay quickly fall off into the very libertarian Silicon Valley and further into the extreme right as you reach central California. It’s a dense and politically diverse place.

    The news is owned by billionaires.

    And, as long as we keep voting for the two ruling parties, it’s going to stay that way.

      It takes money to fight money the legal way. Unless you can somehow crowdsource enough from a class that’s mostly living paycheck to paycheck the only real alternative to meaningful change is through violence.
