A predictably brutal end

"However, I will not pretend that George Floyd was anything other than a violent misogynist, a brutal man who met a predictably brutal end."
—Anonymous
Once more for the record:
"... who met a predictably brutal end."
This is prejudice.
This is hate posing as reason.
All the rest of it — academia, personal opinion — I don't care, I am indifferent.
But this — an Aristotelian syllogism predicting a man's violent death — I condemn it.
"Predictably." I spit at the feet of this word and its author.
Ugly, ugly.
I am ashamed for Humanity.
