    I never said that. I especially did not call him a journalist. What I did say was that his arrest was justified, contrary to what some others claim in this comment section.

    He should not have died, that part we can probably agree on. I’m looking forward to more info on the circumstances of his death.

        I still fail to see which “journalists” you are talking about.

            Be obnoxious asshole that does not contribute anything

            “Hey I’m a journalist, you can’t touch me. Just like the bad guy from Lethal Weapon 2, I got diplomatic immunity!”

            Meanwhile, the Z gang is shooting at actual journalists, but that’s ok because they are on your side. They shouldn’t have come to an active war zone. Oh sorry, special military operation zone.

                Why would journalists need Diplomatic Immunity?

                Exactly.

                Whataboutism.

                Same conflict, so why does “don’t go into an active war zone” work for one side but not the other? Hypocrisy? Martial law sucks, so you get arrested for dumb shit. Nihil sub sole novum.
