Does anyone sympathize/empathize with the killers of Emmett Till?

"In 1955 a black Chicago teenager, Emmett Louis Till, 14, whistled at a Caucasian woman in Money, Miss. Several days later on August 27, 1995 Emmett disappeared. He was eventually located on the bottom of a river wired to a factory fan. He had been beaten and shot in the head."

Does anyone care to sympathize with his killers? Perhaps you may think that you hate it when someone whistles at a lady. Perhaps you may understand where his killers were coming from but this was wrong.

Is this the case for anyone?

Does anyone want to create excuses? Perhaps reason through it?

This is what Emmett looked like after:



Personally I think it's awful and there is no sympathy or empathy on my parts and I don't need to reason it or excuse it.
