Both stories do not have plenty of precedence. The original story is conjecture - as told, it's never happened. My story (we can add, "and was not punished in any way", for clarity's sake - I thought that was implied), however, has happened many, many times.
Both stories as told never happened, the first invents a character who is then killed to make a point in the second.
Both stories are about things that occur in the real world, however one is about the subject of privacy and surveillance and one isn't, so given the thread I think the one on topic is possibly more constructive.
My story actually has happened, multiple times. Happens fairly often, in fact. During the civil rights movement, all sorts of injustices were actually happening to blacks (not just non-consequential murder), for example.
Yet there are no examples of the story being told in the above comments. It's literally fiction, and it hurts the conversation.
The beauty of the example I provided is it would be almost almost impossible to prove. Shooting a guy in the head, as opposed to arresting him raises more questions, and investigations. Your solution is a product of an unskilled mind. Though the competency of government is weak, the competency of the TLA's is anything but.
