Well, her boyfriend wasn't charged either, because it was his lawful right to protect himself from intruders.

Police don't have to do no-knock entries. They could, in the vast majority of cases, just wait people out. Instead they choose the method that, time and again, results in tragedy.

PP, what you are saying is good, I agree. But there has to be some reflection on the poor associations Ms. Taylor had which apparently got her involved in this mess.

Not really because her life, like all of ours, has infinite value, and she did not deserve to die, nor did she need to. Her "associations " are just noise to cover up the incompetence of the police.

Unfortunately, the way this world works is that when you start mixing with shady people in the society, you inadvertently invite trouble for yourself, you can argue till you are blue in the face but it’s the reality. Every life has value, that is not disputable but our own actions can get us into some dangerous situations, even though we are just on the fringes of these dangerous situations. This is an unfortunate incident, the problem is when such situations unfold with the police, there is very little reaction time which can have truly tragic consequences.

The victim blaming here is repugnant.

She is not to blame here AT ALL. The police fcked up and killed her. End of story.

It was a mistake that ended tragically. Ultimately she got justice though nothing will bring her back.

She got no justice .... the verdict was that her life meant nothing.

This is total crap. Breonna Taylor’s name and reputation is being savaged as a means to justify her murder. WTF? Disgusting - shame on you.

His logic is flawed and stupid. Stop using Barkley to prop up your bias.

The police had no business barging into their house in the first place, boyfriend fired not as some vigilante but as a man protecting himself from intruders. The same people who think that Trayvon Martin got what he deserved abs that George Zimmerman was justified in shooting him to death, are now the same people who say Taylor’s boyfriend shouldn’t have shot back.

Funny, the goal posts keep changing.

Well her life apparently is worth $12 million. But the taxpayers have to pony that up. Thus far, no consequences for anyone in law enforcement.

Yes, there were charges, but not because of her murder. Because neighbors were put in danger.

They are role models within the black community and young black men are more likely to listen to them then many others. Nobody can refute the fact that this case is not like the others being protested. Few protesters even known the facts of the case, which had nothing to do with race.

Ah, I get your point. Yeah this is unseemly, but also not surprising given the political climate.

It is a difficult case and I think it is really hard to look at the facts without being emotional. She did not deserve to be killed. It is tragic. Her family wants someone to be held accountable for murder however her killing does not meet the legal standards for murder.

[Anonymous]

Why did her family accept the 12 million dollars?
