Not so much supporting it as trying to find a way to excuse it. In other words, no one is claiming you’re saying, ‘The cops pepper sprayed a nine year old girl...HOORAY!’ It’s more that you’re saying, ‘It’s awful what happened to that girl, but...’
There is no ‘but’. The cops always had to option to not pepper spray her. They went another way.

Not disputed.
There is no "but".
There is an "and".
As in - the cops did a really fucked up thing, should be held to task - AND - the parents dropped the ball on this one and want to shift their blame.to the cops.
As it seems, do you.
