      I’d say ‘unbelievable’ but it’s very believable. They just fucking executed that guy.

      Yeah that’s cold blooded murder alright. This group of fat fucks couldn’t even take one guy and so they killed him out of spite. It’s going downhill with the USA at an accelerating pace.

        And they maced him before that. This dude was virtually incapable of posing a threat. The DHS narrative is insane. He was fucking trying to help two women being shoved around by ice lol. Who can watch this and not see the diabolical lies?

          When I see police shootings like this, I always wonder how unarmed British cops would handle such a situation. I’m against defunding the police in general, but defunding their gun budget I think would go a long, long way.

            I think removing their union protections (I’m a union member and I don’t think they should be afforded the same types of protections since they’re not labor, they’re the armed section of government who are the only ones allowed to use force on the citizens) and making them carry insurance would be a start. Then, moving their budget to do something about the fact that so many of their calls are to deal with mental health crises which they’re not trained for. Plus, for as large as their budgets are, I’d expect better results in solving crimes. Lots of police departments average something like 25% solve rate which includes things like when people turn themselves in.
