Just like everybody in the hospital is not sick. Everybody in the jailhouse is not an inmate. What America and the media have to stop doing is painting the picture with such a broad stroke. We have to begin to deal with each incident and each individual as that β an individual incident. Until then, we will continue to have the needless loss of lives and unnecessary force."
