    What are they referencing in the first instance?

    If it’s the subway thing, I’m pretty sure you need four people to be a mass shooting.

    Also don’t pull knives on cops.

      Also don’t pull knives on cops.

      and even more importantly: always believe whatever the cops say! :)

        If the dude was threatening the cops with a knife there’s no way they would have let the knife out of their sight. I doubt there ever was a knife, and if there ever was it sounds like they abandoned the weapon to go kill the guy.

      because the only way to deal with someone who has a knife is to shoot them in the head and be the judge jury and executioner :)

        You could always try less than lethal weapons, like a Taser.

        Oh wait, they did. Twice.

            So he can threaten someone else with a knife? That dude was a time bomb.

              Wild that people would suggest that if someone threatens the police with a knife they should decide to let them go.

        In this wild and mysterious world, at least I know I can always count on Lemmy.ml to post biased comments.

            Nah, it feels good to call out the authoritarian propagamda spewing out of your instance.

              I don’t think objecting to police brutality and summary execution is authoritarian. That’s more like the opposite.

                Yes, of course that’s not authoritarian, but it is probably authoritarian propaganda.

                That’s why I think this Goober literally just saw the instance and posted. didn’t even use a single braincell to actually think about what I said.

              You say that like I have anything to do with this instance. I made an account here 4 years ago and when I wanted to actually use lemmy every instance had approval turned on. I didn’t want to deal with that shit so I just used this account.

              but anyway, keep crying about whatever political beliefs you think I have based on one comment
