Florida deputy Jesse Hernandez screamed “shots fired,” and frantically fired his gun after an acorn fell onto the roof of his squad car, making him jump.

    So I watch the video and Jesus fucking Christ. That man should not be allowed to own a gun.

    I wonder if he’s a veteran or something because his reaction seemed like abject terror and panic. Regardless , no one should have let that man have a gun if he’s so terrified and unstable.

      I think he is a product of copaganda. If he was a vet, he wasn’t combat.

        The article said he did two tours overseas

        Edit: the first comment stated the 2 tours, without any link to back it up. My bad

      Idk and nobody I know is shooting cars because of an acorn. I’ve never considered it either.

      No combat vet is blindly lighting up a random object because of it. I’m calling bullshit on his story…

        lol of course they light up random things because they want to. They willingly join an organization that constantly attacks other countries. That organization is just better at hiding the truth. Every time there is a leak you see the horrible actions committed by the psychos

          I think you’re missing my point.

          The cops sob story of PTSD is bullshit.

            PTSD is a very serious issue, and you don’t even need to get shot at in war to get it, all that sheepdog cop propaganda can and will seriously give people PTSD just from having to go through it

            Clearly you haven’t visited other sites… Twitter page itself it’s amazing in comparison.

            You don’t get autoplayback ads, floating popups with ads or to subscribe, etc.

              I can block other sites’ trash with adblock but I can’t see the twit without being logged in which I refuse, so… Twitter is worse.

                Even with AdBlock some of those pages are completely unusable.

                At in any case I don’t understand your comment, the tweet can be seen without an account. I am confused. I mean I usually have an account but I just tried and works fine without one.
