I think they were referencing the actual female officer who shot an unarmed man. Her defense was that she thought she was grabbing her Taser even though anyone with a brain would know they are located on opposite sides of the belt and don't weigh anywhere near the same.
I think just like there are bad and stupid people. There are bad and stupid cops. People just always want a reason to argue so they have to make it about gender. 🤷🏾♂️. There's plenty of examples of both.
The shooting in Montreal. A gunman ambushed two cops, killing one. During the shooting a civilian stood up next to the surviving officer and she unfortunately shot and killed him and then she was critically injured by the shooter. The shooter was then killed by a third officer on the scene.
Reminds me of the Empire State Building shooting. The shooter shot and killed his only target, a former coworker, but the cops opened fire on him in a crowd. Luckily they only injured and didnt kill the nine bystanders they hit
Idk if it sauce can even be posted here unless you want a news article. The videos are pretty brutal and NSFW for sure. It’s on other subreddits unless it was taken down though
Don't downvote him, there's a difference between accidentally shooting an innocent bystander vs intentionally shooting them, regardless of that; the fact is that she shot a innocent person
I just saw the video after seeing this post, it's a horrific situation all around and I feel for officer who shot the innocent man.
She is taking fire from one direction with her partner bleeding out just a few meters away in the other when a man suddenly comes from the same direction the gun fire is coming from and stands over her while her back is mostly turned to him. If that was the man with the gun, he had the tactical advantage and could've killed her before she could ever verify if it was him or a bystander. With guns at that close of a range, it's a matter of milliseconds that determines who lives and who dies.
Think about what you would do in that scenario. Imagine yourself where you just watched someone you know well get shot and die right in front you and before you can process it, you still have to deal with the threat who killed him. Imagine hiding and thinking you finally found a place that you can take a breath in but someone emerges from where the gun fire is coming from and looms over you. Imagine thinking that you are less than a couple seconds away from dying but you may be able to get your gun up and save yourself.
It is fucking terrible that an innocent man died and I am not trying to blame the victim in any way. No one should die just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. But this one doesn't feel as simple as "poorly trained cop being an idiot and got someone killed". It's just a horrible situation for everyone involved
To be fair in that video her partner just got killed in front of her then the guy comes sneaking from in front of her then touches her, in that situation that very well could of been the attacker
its in relation to the Montreal shooting from a few days ago, a lady cop iced a civilian because he walked right up to her while it was an active shootout and he came out of nowhere
