        Y'all they're not mocking the situation. They're calling to light the horrific nature of what happened in a satirical manner. If you read an Onion headline and take it literally, you're the one at fault.

        I get that, and I think it's clever and am in no way offended, it's just not something I can laugh about. Too sad.

        Satire is one thing, but this is hurtful. Put yourself in his family’s place. Very disappointing.

        That’s the whole point of satire.

        Replying to @puretamales @TheOnion

        You’re sadly mistaken. Satire mocks people. Satire holds customs or actions or groups up for ridicule. A young man was killed, his family is crying as we “speak”. It’s wrong to mock any part of this while his family has barely started to grieve.

        While I do agree that it is deeply offensive to the family, the satire behind this mocks the flawed system of our caring society, it is criticizing the police not the family.

        It’s not offensive to every family. Some people like to never talk about things to heal, some face them head on. This brilliant satire by The Onion should be commended. It indicts everything but the family. It supports the family. I’d be like “preach!” if I saw this.
