    I mean that’s essentially what anyone who’s white voted for when voting for Trump. They’re always for these policies until they’re the ones being targeted. So yeah, her mom and dad did say fascism is okay when it happens to others, then it happened to their loved one and now they’re empathic?

    What happened to Good and Pretti never should’ve happened but I won’t feign sympathy for the parents that voted to allow it to happen thinking them and their family were one of the good ones it wouldn’t happen to.

      Or they’re Trump voters so they don’t care about their daughter and they see a payday.

          Actually seems like she’s the sole plaintiff and everyone else in this thread is just jumping to conclusions because that article about her mom a while back made them too mad to think clearly

          e; I’m wrong, the article’s a bit vague on whether her parents are involved but her brother definitely is in at least one of two lawsuits happening here

          “The hole in my family and myself, created by my sister’s passing, is hauntingly apparent,” Good’s brother and plaintiff, Brent Ganger, said at a Thursday news conference announcing the lawsuits.

          …

          The [first] lawsuit seeks unspecified compensatory damages for Good’s partner, who witnessed the shooting, and “for the immense suffering Renee endured in the final moments of her life and for the profound and permanent losses that her death has inflicted upon her family,” the family’s attorneys said in a statement.

          …

          In their second lawsuit, Good’s family alleges, among other things, Operation Metro Surge was “a carefully planned, coordinated effort between senior federal officials and private actors” to interfere with the civil rights of Minnesotans of Somali and Hispanic descent and origin, and to silence “the neighbors and allies of those targeted communities who observed, documented, and warned of that campaign.”

              I’m not having any luck finding a specific post, but there were several articles that got written and submitted here after she testified to Congress at the end of September and essentially said “I voted for Trump because I thought he was gonna make us safer not kill my daughter” and people here (understandably I’d say) had/have some strong feelings about that
