    Police aren’t brave, they 're the biggest cowards in societies, and we let them kill without consequence… This should frighten you

      One of the biggest reasons I’m glad I did an enlistment in the Army is having got a couple years experience in Iraq to genuinely understand what a fucking joke American cops are.

    How the actual fuck do you mix up an acorn hitting a car to a gunshot? Has he never been to the range?

      Considering he is a police officer… probably not.

      I watched the video with the volume all the way up, and I couldn’t even hear the acorn.

      I definitely heard him unloading his gun into the car where the unarmed suspect was trapped.

        You are just not trained to properly recognize modern acornfare.

    So he’s shooting without even knowing what or where his target is. Great work, officer.

    The only thing more dangerous than a Florida man is a Florida cop.

    We as a society have really dropped the ball on the low IQ population among us. We need more options that don’t include giving them guns. We can give them badges if they want - and whatever quasi military rank they prefer without giving them the means to kill us.

    What a very composed and calm individual that is perfectly suited for a job as a public servant.

    If you’re that scared you have no business being a cop. What a fucking idiot thinks he got shot too.
