Apparently the man’s hat blew into the roadway and the officer shot when said man ran to grab it.

So why is OP saying the man was executed and meanwhile the article is stating that not a single person was hit by the bullet?

Surely that article was written by AI. It’s chock full of syntax errors. Might just be “Fox quality” though.

Yeah I admit I went with the first one that provided me enough info to have any idea what had actually happened.

No, ais “learning” is modeled off of how people think, and there’s a lot of overlap between what looks like ai and what is actually a tired and stressed person trying to both do the right thing and finish anything ., at 5 am. The morning before the election.

No, it is modeled off of how they communicate. It does not understand how people think.

The rest of your point is accurate.

Knock it off with the BS dude. You knew exactly what you were doing. Show police brutality all you want but don’t fucking lie about it. All it does is show that you’re dishonest instead of what’s going on. You’re stifling your own message.

Hey look, it is the natural outcome of training police to assume everyone is armed armed and out to get them.

Exactly. Guy was so jumpy he mistook a man running after his hat for an armed shooter. That’s baked-in paranoia if I’ve ever seen it.

“Cops are can tell if you’re intoxcitated without tests.”

Mother fuckers can’t even tell if a person is a threat to their life despite showing no hostile intention, weapon or anything but cooperation.

Sure they can. Anyone without an assigned police badge is a threat. That’s all they need to know.

Lmao

“He fell to the ground but was not hit by the bullet. The shot hits a passing vehicle but doesn’t injure anyone.”

He even missed point blank
