She complied with the order to leave, but she didn’t comply with the order to stop and get out. She just needed to do both of those at the same time and she would have been fine.
“Hands in the air! Now crawl towards me!”
Definitely one of the most horrific things I’ve ever seen. It occasionally pops into my head for that extra trauma bump. That poor man. :(
Remembering this incident makes me angry and uncomfortable. I hate thinking about the video. Do 100% everything the cops tell you to do, and you still get popped. ACAB.
Exactly
Whenever I ask people in the US why they need so many guns, they say it’s to defend against government tyranny.
So… how does it work for you guys?
The ones who say that are for government tyranny when it’s the tyrants they like in power.
I’m almost more angry that we have to keep saying this same fucking thing multiple times a day
I think we’ve known for a while their guns are for the minorities, including but not limited to the poor. There are places where one can walk around with a concealed pistol or openly carrying a semiautomatic rifle, but not a 6-inch knife on one’s belt. It’s pretty telling.
How “Why don’t you 2A you way out of this??” people think America can be saved:
The non-GOP party spent the last 40 years demonizing guns and disarming themselves.
That’s how it worked out.
But the blame rests on people who didn’t disarm for not wanting to become “lone wolfs”.
The point of an armed populace in term of protecting freedoms is for the people to have enough combined firepower to make tyranny impractical. It’s been proven time and again that an armed citizen insurgency can defeat the US military.
If 150,000 armed Democrats in Minneapolis started taking pot shots at ICE any time they saw them, there would be nothing the Trump admin could do short of nuking the city.
But if I had been there on Tuesday with my gun and started shooting at ICE by myself, all I’d have accomplished is getting myself killed and giving Trump more ammunition.
You don’t have to take the entire military. You just have to have a critical mass of gun ownership that makes them too afraid to deploy. I know we have a whole propoganda ethos around this but our country doesn’t actually mobilize against anyone with a proportional likelihood of shooting back.
Yeah - and the non-GOP side of the political spectrum doesn’t have that critical mass because the “left” side of the country disarmed itself.
Yeah. Yeah they did. I spent the last decade trying to convince leftists that we need to back up civil rights with the risk of mortal violence but I’m pretty sure I convinced no one. Maybe there’s a certain factor of wanting to be victimized by power, I don’t know.
It worked all right for the Black Panthers.
Until Reagan implemented gun control laws
And Congress passed the Civil Rights Act.
And then nobody ever oppressed blacks again ❤️
Did it though?
Ashley Babbit, by the same standard, should have complied. But Y’all Qaeda seems to be hypocritical about that one.
Haven’t watched the video, but most commenters seems to be saying she did comply.
She couldn’t comply because the orders were to free the road and not move her car.
She was literally turning her wheel to move away and began accelerating when he shot her point blank. She was fully complying.
I love how libertarians would go on “exile themselves” (going freely to another country by their own) and pretend like they escaped some dystopic place. In my country, Uruguay (which is a country that has renewable energy up to 99.1%, and has a free healthcare system and a efficient public school spending), most of libertarians or even “mild” conservatives like to complain about how we live in a communist state (i wish) under the evil Frente Amplio administration. Seriously, this people have to look up definitions a little.
What a lawless shithole.
I this picture of the suv. Look at where the front wheels are pointing. That pig was in no danger. Dude was probably hating himself for his job choice and wanted to feel in control.
Self hate like that goes beyond career choices I’m guessing
