While, yes, it is stealing, sometimes humanitarian needs outweigh the loss of some bottled water that people desperately need in a disaster situation. Use some critical thinking skills, report it to the proper authorities so that the owner can be compensated from disaster funds and get that water into the hands of the people that need it. It’s not like people were looting a shipment of gold bullion headed to Ft. Knox. Sure, sure. But....counterpoint....losers with tiny dicks and badges needed to power trip. So, you understand it had to go down this way.

There are only two kinds of cops: 1) bad cops, and 2) cops who go along with the bad cops, because the culture will not allow for anything other than that. "Good cops who hold bad cops accountable" can be found right next to the unicorns and gnomes in the "shit that doesn't exist" department. There are surely people who go into law enforcement for the right reasons. Those people either 1) give in and become part of the culture they should hate, or 2) leave the profession. The rot is systemic, and total.
October 1, 20241 yr this goes from 0 to murder in 0.5 seconds. this cop shouldn’t just be fired or charged or prosecuted, this motherfucker deserves a slow, painful death on national tv. this police killing is as bad as it gets:
October 1, 20241 yr 10:00pm hour seems to be a bad time to be around this officer. His other shooting this year was at the same time.

But the second tweet says dude who got shot had a 9mm handgun he was trying to pull from his waistband when he was approached by the cop. It's tough to tell from the video though. Cops suck. But if you're driving a stolen vehicle, and then you pull a gun on a cop, you're gonna get shot.
October 1, 20241 yr well that certainly changes things. what’s fucked up is that if this weren’t the 5,000th video of its kind then my reaction would have been, “there’s something i’m missing here” as opposed to, “here we go again.” shit is a daily occurrence in america. literally just a daily aspect of life here.

Cops get, and should get, zero benefit of the doubt. None. Nada. Each cop shooting should be treated as an intentional murder from the start. The burden of self-defense/defense of others should be a fucking mountain for the cop to climb. But hey, you've got a body cam -- if you're telling the truth, it should back you up, right? What's that? Many of you regularly don't turn them on? Gosh, who could have seen that coming?
October 1, 20241 yr looks like perp has a gun in left hand down by his side when the cops shoots. Need to get zapruder to enhance the video. But, I'm a little uneasy about unloading a clip in a store if the perp is not actively killing people.

Best practice is to shoot the bad guy reaching for his gun before they're actively killing people instead of after they've started killing people.

This. 35 minutes ago, High Plains Drifter said: Yeah, but he wasn't reaching for his gun until cop starting screaming. Yeah....that doesn't matter, like, at all. Calm cop. Cop shouting at you to freeze. Doesn't matter -- the number of times where it's a good idea to draw a gun on a cop who has a gun pointed at you remains steady at 0.0. This cop may be a terrible cop, and an absolute murderous POS....but if the victim pulled a gun on the cop, it will be a legally justified shooting 100% of the time. Even murderous POS's can fall into a situation where they are legally justified to use deadly force.

Nope I'm still confused but that's nothing new. In order to keep this topical I will relay a story that happened a few years ago. I didn't come to a complete stop at an obscure stop sign in West U. Cop sees me, I see him and immediately pull over. Get my license out and he comes storming up to my window and blurts YOU DIDNT EVEN SLOW DOWN DID YOU??? I see no good way to answer so I just stick my hand out the window and say HERE IS MY LICENSE. Didn't want to call him a liar. Or incriminate myself further. I didn't get shot or have to exit the vehicle. I am white and devastatingly handsome, so I have that going for me. Which is nice.

October 3, 20241 yr Vallejo seems like the worst place in America to have any sort of interaction with the police. And that my friends, is really saying something.

October 4, 20241 yr Thanks alot Hall County Sheriff and Texas DPS assholes who blasted out a “blue alert” statewide at 4:53am… like what the fuck is anyone supposed to do with a blue alert, even if it’s not for a location 7 hours drive away? Am I supposed to put on my Batman leotard and go help track down the person who’s injured/shot a cop? I know damn well the cops won’t be signing up for “EvilBill Alerts” to be blasted to their phones statewide at all hours of the night if I get lost/injured/drunk/shot… /rant

They want to build the narrative that cops are persecuted and need mo monies to buy toys to go murder people under false pretenses and falsified warrants. What better way to do that than wake everyone the fuck up at 5am on Friday???

Buncha stupid fuckwads. 100% this. I decided to go ahead and wake up when the thing went off. Shortly thereafter went to google and started typing in blue alert s when google autofilled the rest of story for me. Clearly I wasn't alone in that search Then I googled Hall County because I didn't know where the fuck it was. Amarillo? I am in South Texas. Is the dude on a plane? Want me to meet him at the airport? Next google - ios blue alert not - which autofilled for me how to turn off blue alert notifications Problem is - its really an all or nothing for the big ones. There isn't a "blue alert" toggle. So, for me, it is nothing. No alerts at all. Thanks a lot Hall County
October 4, 20241 yr Maybe everyone should call HCSO every time they see a man in blue jeans. Blow up their fucking switchboard. They will stop doing that shit when it blows back.
October 4, 20241 yr Not joking, y'all should call your local state reps and bitch to them about this https://wrm.capitol.texas.gov/home This isn't partisan, it's an abuse of our emergency system
