Looks like we're going to have a rash of copycat shootings or attempts at such.

Why would they shoot him in Grant’s pants?

I think that should be standard cop response, blow their balls off. Black crimes would plummet.

Are you trying to lighten the mood with inappropriate humor? ;-)

At first glance, I read “in grass pants.”

Did they use an AR15 style weapon to shoot him in the pass or just an old fashion Glock? Is this a suicide by cop shoot or just an old fashion lunatic trying to get on tv?

You’re right, Grant should have been shot between his besotted eyes. :)

I read it as "authorities shoot man in
grass pants"
Either way, his ass is grass.

The OP is more than a bit short on detail.

I did too.
It looks like they didn't do him much good.
Maybe they are only legal in Hawaii.

Right. I don’t care if they shot him in the department’s water fountain. It’s gonna leave a mark. Note to self “No Grass Pants in Grants Pass”.

I don’t know if “they” still do it, but back in the 70s it was common for someone to remove the “P” from the highway signs signifying GRANTS PASS.
