The author, Colbert King of the article The Wrong Way To Talk About Killings In D.C. wants us the reader to think about the way different killings are talked about in our world, and if they are being talked about in the wrong way. This means he wants people to choose their words more carefully when speaking about crimes, more specifically murder. 

        The way the author gets us to think about this is by giving us an example of a local reported who was shot while waiting for a bus. A man rode by on a dirt bike a shot her even though he was trying to kill someone else. The captain of police said in a press conference that the reporter was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. The author disagrees. He say that she was in the right place at the right time because all she was doing was waiting for a bus after work and did nothing wrong. He says that the fact that a person can't even wait at a bus stop with out being scared of being hurt or killed is outrageous.  

        I agree with this. You can never really say wrong place wrong time unless it was a real accident. The fact that the thing happened in the first place is the problem not the fact that the person was standing there. In a way this maybe be police not wanting to take the blame for what happened and are leaving it up to the fact that she jest happened to be there and are ignoring the fact that another person had an attempt made on their life.
