    Obviously this lone individual required being shot with less lethal weaponry instead of a group of armed law enforcement taking 30 seconds to talk to her. There were literally no other option, their lives were in danger!

    Wtf!! The curfew announcement sounded like it was for the freeways, but I guess they meant those were the borders… Worse than I thought. The announcement also said you were fine if you had a medical emergency or if you were coming and going home/to work. Apparently fcking not.

    Aren’t Americans supposed to have guns and stuff to fight against tyrannical governments. Some amendment or the other which grants them rights or some shit

        There seems to be growing evidence that armed protesters are treated better and taken more seriously by police. Whether it’s a “good old boy” effect, the prospect of more paperwork and scrutiny, or just perceived threat, it may be a way forward.

    This is what happens when you don’t weed out the limp dick losers when recruiting. They will power trip and shoot women just for the thrills.

      No one else wants to become a cop.

    Republicunts when this gets on the news… “They felt threatened! She was MS-13 or could have been! This is cause Democrat commies love violent illegals! She was really a man!”

    Fuck this. If you do so much as yell at a Republican they’ve shown they can claim self defense & get away with murder. I don’t care if it is a cop or not, the only time anyone should be pointing a gun at someone else is if they have serious reason to believe that person poses a significant & immediate threat to their life or that of someone else, and only if the person they’re defending is not a threat or able to respond with equal or greater force. The cops in this scenario were & are in fact the threats & should be dealt with in the same conditions by acting in self defense.

    Were they targeting women? I think women are their worst demographic, it would make sense if they targeted them to stay home. I’ve only heard and seen women hit with bullets.

    Fascists don’t care when you call them hypocrites and monsters.

    They only care when you step up and act to stop them.

    Do more of that
