This is a verifiably false comment that I hope was written from ignorance and not something else.

Seth Rich was not killed by "inner-city violence." He was killed by an unknown assailant, presumably in a mugging but it is again unknown. It was also not in the inner city, but in the Bloomingdale neighborhood which is rather nice and you can read about it here [1].

>Given the fact that you can't walk around America's inner cities without getting shot

Again, this is far from what I'd call a "fact" and is rather ignorant. Plenty of people live and work in inner cities across America without ever being shot or shooting someone. Your bizarre appeal to authority with quoting Obama doesn't have any bearing in reality. Seth Rich's murder may have been, and likely was, a random act of violence. But that does not justify the assertions of your comment.

I guess my sarcasm was too subtle. Yes, it appears that he was in fact killed in a mugging gone wrong. Yes, those things are pretty rare in the US (but not unknown).

> Your bizarre appeal to authority with quoting Obama

I was quoting Trump, not Obama (Obama is no longer our president). And in particular, the same people who are most inclined to believe that Mr. Rich was killed by government agents or DNC goons or something are also the people most inclined to believe Trump's (incorrect) claim that you can't walk down the street in the without getting shot. Why don't they take his assertion seriously in this case?
