Objectively how can anyone say it's justified to shoot a baby? What the fuck are we doing?

They aimed for the mother and hit the baby by accident. The mother was accused of stealing diapers.

Like, this whole thing is fucked up. Nonviolent offenses do not warrant the use of lethal force.

Especially when his mother's only crime was being poor and desperate? The real criminals here are wearing suits, not stealing diapers for their sons.
