Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body

Even worse, the shooter wasn't a "cop" he was a "Constable" and the distinction is important. A Constable isn't allowed to carry a gun nor are they allowed to physically evict a tenant. They're allowed to serve the paperwork, which he'd already done 4 days prior, and that's it. That's as far as their authority goes.
This guy was genuinely out looking for a situation where he could shoot someone and after he shot Magnus he tried to do it AGAIN not a month later.

In the US the only people more dangerous to be around than cops are the people that desperately wish they were cops.
I guess you're talking from experience and not just what the media reports on.
I, personally, have had 0 bad experiences with law enforcement. Really puts things into perspective when I have my own experiences to contrast what I read online.
Sure.
That's good.
LOL I'm sure the irony of this statement is completely lost on you.
That's some Nancy Reagan level "I don't care about an issue until it affects me personally" he's got going on.
What are you talking about?
Say something of substance, if you can.
Oh I already did.. But as I thought, the irony of your own point was completely lost on you. If you insist on having your hand held in an effort to get you to understand that the experiences of others are just as valid as your own, fine. But only one of us here is suggesting the other thinks the way they do because of "WhAt ThE mEdIa RePoRts On." Got it? Good. We're done here.
Alright, gonna block you now troll.
Well, I appreciate the courtesy. Your contributions will not be missed.
Block me too, cheers.
