Murder is wrong.
Pogroms are wrong.
Using a murder to incite a pogrom against a small and vulnerable group in society is wrong.
(If I’m not mistaken, an assassination was the excuse for the wave of mob but state-sanctioned violence in Russia in 1881 that gave us the term “pogrom.”)

If you’ve been to the National Holocaust Museum, you know marginalized groups don't lose their rights all at once in a dictatorship. One day they’re banned from various jobs, another day they’re banned from certain hospitals, another day they’re banned from owning guns. We all know where it ends.
