Spotsylvania County Sheriff's Office released video late Friday of the shooting of Isaiah Brown, 32, who's in critical condition in a hospital with 10 bullet wounds following the shooting early Wednesday. Apparently the best way to prevent someone w/ a gun to their head from killing themselves is to try to do it for them.... https://i.imgur.com/9kRqCmS.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

This scrub's so used to relying on glass cannon builds he doesn't know what to do when faced with somebody that actually invested in survivability.

In all seriousness, this is pretty clearly terrible, we've just hit a point where there isn't much more that can be said to actually discuss it than has already been said. It's really quite a damning commentary on the state of policing in the US that it's become so routine and banal that making jokes about it is all that's left, but it's where we are.

Damn... when you think about it... thats a really good point. That's not a "good point," that's fucking stupid and more of Blighzi's usually trolling. Abusing a system to cause a system to fuck up by responding to it as if it were legitimate is a problem with the abuse more than it is the system. While it's similar to any other scenario where people lie to the court or cops where you could more reasonably complain about the system, there's a far greater immediacy where it comes to emergency response. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ...

The best way to defend the police is to bring the problem cops to justice. Cut out the cancer and leave these institutions something that America can be proud of and law abiding citizens don't have to live in fear of.

"SWATTers" didn't turn them into a "joke", police did that themselves. Even w/o people calling in false reports, SWAT teams still get used for an ever increasing amount of minor crimes.
Wikipedia (I'm feeling lazy, too bad): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Militarization_of_police
Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) teams are law enforcement units in the United States that use specialized or military equipment and tactics. First created in the 1960s for riot control or violent confrontations with criminals, the number and usage of SWAT teams increased in the 1980s and 1990s during the War on Drugs, and in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks. In the United States today, SWAT teams are deployed 50,000-80,000 times every year, 80% of the time in order to serve search warrants, most often for narcotics. SWAT teams are increasingly equipped with military-type hardware and are trained to deploy against threats of terrorism, for crowd control, and in situations beyond the capabilities of ordinary law enforcement, sometimes deemed "high-risk". Other countries have developed their own paramilitary police units (PPU)s that are also described as or compared to SWAT police forces. SWAT units are often equipped with specialized firearms including submachine guns, assault rifles, breaching shotguns, sniper rifles, riot control agents, and stun grenades. They have specialized equipment including heavy body armor, ballistic shields, entry tools, armored vehicles, advanced night vision optics, and motion detectors for covertly determining the positions of hostages or hostage takers, inside enclosed structures. Excessive bolding to aid the mentally challenged who still defend this shit from having to read all of that. ... Copied to Clipboard!
