    I know. It’s just that fatally shot is what policemen or “good guys” gets, a bad guy will get the “killed” headline. That’s what I wanted to convey.

      Like how an 18-21 year old woman that murders gets called a woman/adult in the headline, but if she’s the victim, she’s called a girl/young adult. (Similar with guys too.) News author or editor injecting bias (intentional or otherwise) into the article. That’s always annoyed me.
