The pig sees her, turns, aims, and shoots her almost point blank.
You know shits getting real when the cops will shoot at a blonde white girl.
It’s called flirting. Or maybe he asked her out and she rejected him. It really could go both ways.
She certainly didn’t dodge a bullet with him.
Jokes aside, I hope she and Australia sue them into oblivion.
I was watching Hasan being at the protests to get a sense of what is actually going on and a European left a comment on his video that succinctly put the US police into perspective.
As a European I don’t get how the police is just shooting rubber bullets instantly, why do they not have riot shields and water throwers and such, it seems so uncivilised.
And that pretty much sums up the cops in the US. They’re just uncivilized. Their idea of “deescalation” is escalation until you’re too incapacitated to fight back.
Zero justification, not a stray bullet etc, he literally aims and shoots at the camera, what in the fuck is going on over their?
The US spent the last 24 years spreading freedom and democracy in the Middle East, it ended up running out of it at home
You mean the democracy and freedom they were spreading finally reached home.
That boomerang will break your jaw. Too bad nobody cared as long as the violence we inflicted never came home. It always does though.
Wait until you find out the entire history of usa…
can’t have eyes on the situation. it goes away faster the less people see it
I know what you mean but it’s very counterproductive to shoot someone while they’re on air though. Seems like a pretty sure way to get more eyes than anything. Not that this pig is smart enough for that kind of critical thinking.
I was being facetious, cops have all the incentive to drive away cameras but I want them there. But yes, luckily this pig did it while already on camera like the dumb fuck he is
It should also be noted that the term “rubber bullet” is exceedingly euphemistic.
So-called ‘rubber bullets’ are huge and have been known to maim and blind people. These aren’t tiny little paintball rounds, folks.
Because most of them have a core of metal or other high density material and a softer exterior. It’s like wrapping a brick in a couple of layers of bubble wrap and hitting someone if the face with it.
No, more like wrapping metal in rubber, as you had described. No need to downplay it.
It’s like getting the end of one of these lobbed at you:
Well, you have to have something heavy to hold enough inertia to have a deterring impact.
How else are you supposed to suppress the growing second class citizenry? Communicate?
Yeah, in a different thread there were some drawings too.
Until today, I imagined rubber projectile being something that’s just something fast but soft, perhaps something that even disintegrates on impact.
Kind of like paintball.
Paintballs can blind you
LAPD shot a protester in the head with rubber bullets and refused to call an ambulance for her as she lay there bleeding and concussed; another protester was trampled and concussed by mounted police; countless other protestors were beat over the head savagely with batons… and this is only what was on video.
It’s one thing to constantly talk about standing up to tyranny and defending your precious freedoms, owning guns especially for that long awaited moment when they can be revolutionary heroes.
Looks like Americans talk the talk but don’t walk the walk.The Americans who spout off about things like standing up to tyranny and how much they love having guns are not the same people participating in this protest. The government is actively supporting those people.
The protesters are the ones expecting the rule of law to eventually win, but also know how important it is to protest so that the rule of law continues to exist. It may not be as violent as you’re expecting, but it seems to me that they are walking the walk.
We haven’t done this in a while and we’re a little rusty, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t fighting.
The Americans who spout off about things like standing up to tyranny and how much they love having guns are not the same people participating in this protest
And this is part of the problem. Maybe we should be the people bitching about tyranny and loving guns.
Slow down there baud. With talk like that someone might mistake you for some kind of anarchist!
Well, it’s a good thing I’m on the anarchist Lemmy instance.
