They said they were using an oven... So they obviously know how to cook. No reason to be sad.

I have heard it called "John Lennon's murder" but can't remember hearing it referred to as an "assassination." But assuming the premise of your question is valid, i can think of two potential influences:

(1) "assassination" is most often used when talking about politicians or state actors and Lennon was more of a political figure than 2pac; (2) 2pac knew he was likely going to die the death of a "gangsta"--i could reference almost every one of his tracks--this mentality was associated with a gang affiliations, and had a lot of racial implications. It would be hard to imagine a journalist who identified with this mentality, and harder to imagine one that referred to the death of a gangsta as "assassinated," who are generally "killed" or "murdered."

Tldr: assassination is too fancy a term for the death of a gangsta.

Ps: favorite 2pac track "death around the corner"

It's not the"pointing out" that makes it ironic... It's the popularity of the post running counter with your underlying argument in the past that makes it's ironic.

Only state actors can violate the equal protection clause of the us constitution. The Muslim bakery example doesn't implicate the federal equal protection clause.
