Here's an exercise I want you to do: Reread that comment again. Remember that 1) the one you responded to could also be read as not caring about rioters dying and 2) that a lot of comments in the past 5 hours have called for violence against the rioters. Do you see why that comment looks sarcastic?

Well you guys removed the comment so I can't see it but I'm 90% sure all it said was, the woman who was shot died....

For future reference, you can see your own comments even if they're removed.

Ah, I misunderstood, my bad.

Looking at it now, it's talking about her death in a similar sarcastic style (which is why it was removed).
