His 19-year-old son, Bridger, called 911 and reported it as a domestic dispute in a backyard.

If they were reasonable people, then they would not be cops.

Because, it helps get their rocks off.

"Itt shows only one angle" is such an asshole thing to say. Investigation is a good thing, but they ruin it by saying stupid shit.

There's only one angle. These cowards shot a disabled child through a chain link fence

Eos.

These cops a shitheel attempted murderers for shooting someone who wasn't a threat to anyone through a fence. They should both be sent to prison and permanently barred from posessing firearms.

But their form in committing that attempted murder isn't the issue here. As far as mag dumping goes, that's pretty standard practice when it comes to handguns. With hand guns it's assumed that you're going to be using them in a high stress situation where you aren't going to have a whole lot of time to aim carefully and your adrenaline will be interfering with your aim. Plus handguns are harder to aim accurately and just plain more inaccurate than long guns. In addition, in a high stress situation someone can be shot and not even realize they got shot until the adrenaline wears off or they drop dead. It takes a pretty immediately critical wound to actually stop a human running on adrenaline and, while gunshot wounds are easily lethal given a little bit of time, there are shockingly few areas on the body where a gunshot wound is immediately lethal or immediately crippling. All this means that training for using handguns is to aim center of mass and keep pulling the trigger until your target actually drops or otherwise completely stops being a threat. They are really only meant to be last resort weapons even for cops. If you are planning on shooting someone then you get out a long gun.

The thing to criticize here is that these two subhuman skidmarks decided to immediately gun down someone who was no immediate threat to them or anyone else. Criticizing their form durring that attempted murder just gives you less credibility around those who have firearms training and is irrelevant to the fact that they just decided on murder as plan A. Bringing up their form just deflects from the fact that their reason for shooting the victim could only be that they just wanted to.

Seems cops think they're MaxTac already.

The real question is how can you be a cop and be such a bad shot that you shoot someone that many times and don't kill them

Here's your answer:

My friends and I categorically refuse to visit states in red. During the pandemic, their refusal to use masks and vaccines resulted in their hospital capacity reaching critical conditions, and they had to export a ton of their sick and dying to Washington and Montana, among other states. This deferred care for resident cancer patients in those states.

Guess how they thanked the states that bailed their asses out come November 5th? If you guessed "crushing tariffs", you guessed right.

There are a few good souls there, but they have a disproportionately high number of extremely evil people.

This is the same group of "warriors" (cops , i understand these are separate states) that mag dumped after an acorn fell on their car.

Not only that, but he was on the other side of a flipping fence.

In a situation where you're using lethal force (e.g. a gun.) you aren't doing the minimum or doing disabling shots or sharpshooting the knife out of their hand, you are stopping the threat. This means center mass (torso) shots to minimize the chance that you miss and hit someone behind or near them (Like the two people were near the kid.), and you shoot until they stop being a threat. Adrenaline is a hell of a drug (and whatever other potential drugs folks can be on.) and can let folks shrug off a bullet if it isn't instantly killing them, hence the training on lethal force is shoot until they stop being a threat.

That said: Given that he hadn't even cleared the fence they had time to back up. IMO this was a preventable shooting and they likely could have had one officer pepper spray or tase him (Both have about 15 foot range.) while the others kept guns on him.

The station gives out an Arby's coupon every week to whoever scores the most kills.

All these cops go into work itching for a kill.

Hi. Former officer of the Texas department of criminal Justice. They train fear into you. This is the intended response. This is the optimal outcome. This is exactly what he was trained to do. Half of the training is watching videos of police officers not reacting quickly or violently enough and dying and being told "always act first and monopolize the violence in the situation". Once again, I am a former officer of the Texas department of criminal justice. This is my personal experience.

ACAB. Fuck the police. It bastardizes everyone. Including me.

It’s worse than that as a lot of their “training” is designed to make them feel like they’re warriors in constant danger. They are too stupid to ignore it and it’s all they get since training and the funding for it is so awful and unregulated.

Cops in the US are just running around constantly pissing themselves and it barely takes anything to put them over the edge.

~~Yeah, 12 year old should know that calling 911 for help is literally murder! /s

He's a literal child and was scared. He called for help. It's gross to blame him or even imply he should know calling for help on the same line you call for fire and ambulances will cause an attempted murder.~~

ETA: I don't know where I came up with him being 12, but the point about calling for help and the murder hobos being the same line as the helpers still stands. Blaming a 19 year old for calling 911 because the cops decided to try to murder someone is still gross.

You are actively throwing away the persons life when you call the police on them.
