That is interesting speculation. In any case, the victim's name is now a matter of public record: https://www.cbsnews.com/sanfrancisco/news/fatal-stabbing-bob...
It's not a conspiracy theory. It's a dynamic I've seen in play out on the front page before, on many occasions, in real-time.

Maybe you're both right.
The party in power wins by default on the little stuff. The opposition must "save their debate for more important things."
It's impolitic to mention, but black Americans commit most murders in the US despite their small share of the population. Black American women are more likely to commit murder than white American men, a sex reversal…
Sad but true. This philosophy isn't exclusive to one race or demographic, either. Poor white kids fall into criminal subcultures just like anyone else when there seems to be no hope and no way out. Juggalo gangs are one…
It's not an exaggeration. My city government has funded a "Black Excellence Center" which will use public funds to build a racially-exclusive art gallery/business incubator/cultural space for black people, who represent…

I think I've explained very clearly. Sorry if my perceived pedantry made you or the OP upset.
The point is acknowledging sensible prohibitions on, for example, the sale of alcohol to minors can be measurably and beneficially effective, and abandoning all attempts to crack down on vice because "prohibition never…
You're putting words in my mouth. I don't suggest that America follow China or Singapore's example to the letter, only that the statement "making vices illegal never stopped them" is wrong. There is a huge middle ground…
The first sentence simply isn't true. Vigorous law enforcement can substantially curtail illegal drug trafficking, for example. Singapore does not have a fentanyl abuse problem. They also hang drug traffickers. This…
