Let's see the body cam footage.

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 21 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I don't think anyone needs to see the body cam footage of a labradoodle in a knicks shirt running up to give people hugs and kisses before being shot by psychopaths?

Just look at the dog.

There is absolutely zero possible chance that animal was a threat to anyone.

Nobody is going to even try to say otherwise, anyone that does will not be taken seriously by anyone who is being honest.

Every damn day law enforcement faces grave dangers to their life in the form of violent and aggressive criminals. You’re seriously telling me if that…thing came at you, full speed, you wouldn’t empty your fucking clip on it? LOL…I’m in absolute disbelief right now.

Do you… shoot every dog that walks towards you?

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 1 points 3 weeks ago

Is this satire?

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth -1 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Let me get this straight: it's cool to demand Buddy cam footage of cops killing humans, but not animals? Is that what you're saying? Because people can just like...not watch it. Just like they could not watch footage of any humans we've been seeing released.

Hands up, don't shoot! I can't breathe! No kings!

Huh?

Do you have a reading comprehension problem or are you just inventing something completely different to what I said to get mad about and then slapping a bunch of slogans on the end (one of which is just liberal) like it adds something?

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth -2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Nice ad hominem. Obviously the cops are saying the animal rushed them. Body cam will clear it up.

Hi I want to apologize for yesterday. I was tired, sore, grumpy and misread your intent. If you don't want to accept, I understand, I just wanted to say I'm sorry, anyway.

Wishing you well. ❤️‍🩹

You're taking the person you are replying to too literally. They were just saying that the dog is obviously a big sweet goofball by look and breed alone. They weren't saying that the cam footage literally should not be reviewed.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 2 points 3 weeks ago

I mean I've seen fluffballs that will eat your face and rotts, dobies, and pits that think they're lapdogs. But yes, tone doesn't always convey over the internet.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth -4 points 3 weeks ago

What is wrong with you? I'm not mad but you seem to have issues.

[–] A404@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I dont think I could stomach it.

[–] ironycanal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 3 weeks ago

You've seen cops before. Cmon.

[–] dis_da_mor@anarchist.nexus 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

woops! it magically ran out of battery! wonder how that happened... /s

[–] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Somehow the cable caught on something and disconnected.

There will never be a revolution in the US. Look at what you guys let the police do.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 10 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

we never had actual wars like europe, or eurasia did. that finally convinced the country its enogh. america is truley living in a bubble. also by designed people are kept complacent by high enough wage, SPORTS, and culture wars.

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 10 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Also the utter lack of community, most people just don't socialize with anyone outside their house or work and even then it's mostly superficial, plus a shitty, hyper-individualist culture which exacerbates it.

We aren't a community of workers trying to ensure we all have enough, we are a country of individuals all trying to compete for what little scraps we can get our hands on that drop from the tables of the ruling class.

Hard to build a resistance effort when you don't trust your neighbors or your coworkers to be there for you when it counts.

[–] SocialistVibes01@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 weeks ago

utter lack of community

Yes, communism is utterly anti-USAmerican, everybody else is weirded out by these definitely broken human beings that have that weirdness normalized by propaganda since birth.

[–] SocialistVibes01@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 weeks ago

america

Ahem, USAmerica.

[–] ironycanal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

America's had plenty of wars!

The whiskey rebellion, the slavers' war, the coal wars...

cops spook easily in the US. dog was probably black.

[–] mortalblade@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I guess we should just arm our pets or something

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Just open fire as soon as you see a police officer - he's probably out to shoot either you or your pet.

[–] BoxedFenders@hexbear.net 7 points 3 weeks ago

That dog looks so happy in that photo. You can tell he was well loved by his family. God, what an utterly stupid and senseless tragedy.

[–] Darkard@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

To beat a bad guy with a gun you need a good boy with a gun.

Arm all pets. I see no downsides.

Cop was probably a Lakers fan.

[–] ironycanal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

Why would they be a Lakers fan?
