    See, the issue with your statement is the “you” part. As a dark skinned person with leftist political stances, I don’t believe I can get away with what cops do.

      Cops are just one of many examples. Here are some other ways of legally killing people:

      • joining the army
      • becoming a doctor and systemically neglect women and poc
      • fatally injuring someone in self defense
      • getting someone pregant in places with abortion bans

      Notice that I said killing, not ‘murdering’. So long as it’s either not deliberate or acceptable by law, you can legally get people killed.
