On Wednesday, March 13, the Napa County District Attorney's Office released surveillance footage of a shooting by an American Canyon police officer in Vallejo
“play stupid games win stupid prizes” isn’t a philosophical basis for a justice system. Even Hammurabi moved us beyond that shit. Your worldview is meme based. It’s pretty sad.
I mean this is America, that gun could be used for literally anything and someone would say “hey you too? I always use my gun to fix squeaky door hinges!”
What do you think rightwing chuds that demand to bring assault rifles into ice cream shops are going to use their 30 round 5.56mm ar-15 with 90 rounds of ammunition for?
If rightwing libertarian free speech warriors had even the tiniest scrap of integrity to their beliefs they would clearly be livid with anger about a random person possessing a firearm being deemed a lethal threat by the unelected government officials and then arbitrarily executed on the spot.
You would think these brave defenders of American culture would immediately recognize the problem with making it ok for an unelected government official to shoot someone else on sight for possessing a firearm, and face almost zero percent chance of consequences for being wildly incompetent and racist?
Of course, this is about who rightwing culture teaches you to be afraid of and who rightwing culture absolves of all responsibility for threatening and committing lethal violence in our communities.
“I thought you were going to try and pull that gun on me,” Coleman said.
But it’s not like he has a history of this shit, oh wait
“Coleman was implicated in court testimony in 2022 for participating in the Vallejo police badge bending scandal, where officers bent the tips of their badges to mark fatal shootings. Coleman testified his badge was bent against his will, but a department superior testified that he was more involved than he said and may have even helped spread the practice to other officers.”
Similarly people also underestimate the number of people who commit domestic violence against their partners, the numbers are obviously difficult to get a real handle on (you are asking people to reveal things they might not want to reveal, even if they are the victim) but the number is probably somewhere around 30% of cops commit domestic abuse on their spouses and family.
What do you think would happen to a civilian in a Stand Your Ground state did this ?
If someone with a gun broke into their home, and the home owner chased them out of the house, pursued them, and then shot them in the back without an immediate threat to their life, they would most certainly be charged with murder.
It’s sad how people like you think people “behaving like this” deserve to die.
It’s sad how you think anybody who even appears to pose a threat to a police officer is forfeiting their life by not immediately dropping flat on the ground with their hands above their heads.
The kid dropped his gun, you can see and hear it, it landed in the driveway on the lower left of the screen.
The officer had NO REASON to fire at that point, when the kid had his back turned and was clearly just trying to make it out of there alive. Fight or flight response meant he definitely wasn’t thinking clearly but he was also in no way a threat to anybody.
You didn’t watch the video then?
The video of someone being shot in the back?

Sorry, I didn’t read all that. It started off as drivel and I can only assume it continued as such.
I hope you got it out of your system, though. Good for the tribe!

People underestimate the number of active serial killers there are because so many of them wear badges and their murders are never prosecuted.

It’s too late. The snowball effect has taken hold.
Tribalism wins over all on these forums. Everyone is just trying to fit in, lol.
Glad that adults in the real world trump children on the internet. This place is a containment zone more than anything else.

The cop literally said “drop the gun, drop the gun, drop the gun or I’ll shoot you.”
It’s sad how people like you think people should be allowed to behave like this without getting shot.
