You wouldn’t be, but the police doing so would be in such a situation, if there was equality.

Is a police department that shrugs and says "we'd want to solve this high profile murder that everyone wants solved, but because of 'equality' we have to solve this gangbanger murder that nobody cares about" really what we want? Isn't a government that's responsive to citizen demands also an ideal? What happens if they conflict?

Keep in mind, for this case in specific, a huge number of people did not want it solved

Your concerns about some people being more deserving of a good investigation reminds me why it's great that hospitals will serve everyone, even if they are a gangbanger.

I mean, yes, I do want a world where the police feel like they need to solve murders even when the victims are considered distasteful.
