Hey America are we great yet?
No, it will get greater yet!
100% that cop is a misogynistic pig
Land of the free, ladies and gentleman.
Someone cropped this to a vertical aspect. Here is the uncropped version that someone posted in another thread. You can see the cop much earlier in the video. He’s just looking around and suddenly decides to raise his weapon and shoot her.
9news are framing this as “caught in the crossfire of violent protests”. Last time I checked, the police weren’t protesting. I fucking despise this world sometimes.
The cop turned around, sighted her in, and pulled the trigger. He had ample opportunity to see her microphone or the camera she was talking to.
This was 1000% an intentional assault on the media.
But he really wanted to shoot someone, and is a cop. He probably got a promotion for keeping the peace.
He was clearly shooting anyone in sight. This person had been facing the other way, no aggression.
Quit your crocodile defense.
I think you’re missing the /s tag here.
Found the boot licker
aka a redditor.
Oh yea , CLEARLY
Have you actually come to enjoy the taste of rubber and leather?
They’re taking pointers from the Israelis.
“Those rioters were advancing in a menacing fashion. The police were fearing for their lif…”
“Sir. It was one person.”
“The rioter was advancing in a menacin…”
“It wasn’t a rioter. It was a reporter.”
“The reporters were advancing in a menacing fashio…”
“It was just one. A singular woman reporter. Who was talking to a camera.”
“So there were at least two of them? Reporter and camera person”
“…yeah. I guess.”
“Those rioters were advancing in a menacing fashion, possibly armed with RPG’s and dirty nuclear bombs. The police were fearing for their life and reacted as they were trained and shot her in the back. We have investigated and found that they did nothing wrong.”
That cop did it intentionally, he wants to be promoted to the big guys, idf.
He waited until he was in frame.
Hey, hey, everyone calm down. I’m sure he’ll be appropriately reprimanded with paid leave and possibly given a raise for very obviously shooting a reporter on purpose. Poor guy. The injuries alone that he’ll receive for high fives and heil Hitler’s back at the precinct could throw out his shoulder.
I’ll keep repeating this because I think it’s important
Wear safety glasses
Not sunglasses, or shades or prescription glasses
Wear actual industrial rated workers safety glasses.
If you get those shots in your face, you’re going to lose an eye or both eyes. Safety glasses are designed for this kind of stuff and they actually work. It will stop those projectiles from damaging your eyes.
Cops all over the world are known to purposefully shoot people’s faces and heads. After the fact they will just argue that it didn’t happen, it was accidental, it was chaotic, it was dangerous, etc, etc … it won’t matter after the fact if you lose an eye or end up completely blind.
Wear safety glasses, they’re easy to find and easy to use.
Safety glasses are not designed to take a rubber bullet. I don’t know how well it would actually protect you.
Even better: safety goggles that seal around the eyes or face to reduce chemical exposure as well as projectile. Not the shitty safety goggles you got in high school chemistry, but things that actually fit & conform to your face.
Good to know, hope to not need it.
Bringing my prescription safety glasses with me on the 14th
Don’t waste the money. Get ones that’ll work over your glasses, and preferably pick up some $10 Zenni glasses.
Never going back prescription safety glasses are so much better.
My work paid for them :)
Fascism in America
You can see the cunt target her (or the camera operator) while she is talking to camera - big brave boy
I hope his neighbors know.
I’m sure that they do, and approve.
But the protesters won’t be allowed to wear masks… wtf?!
Israel normalized violence against the press in the ultimate way
I knew it… ACAB
Don’t worry everyone, this is just their love language.
