Peasants are target practice and we are in a virtual free-fire zone at times without knowing it.
Heck, when I was sitting behind a .50 cal BMG, I often could not shoot back even when tracers went zipping past, until we were given clearance to fire back.
Cops seem to have clearance to open up on just about anything that loosely fits whatever their rules book says might be a threat. Like that kid near SF a few months ago.
“The cop got to go home safe at the end of his shift, according to the badgelickers, that is all that matters....”

It’s funny...I did a quick scan of the comments and the “usual suspects” bootlickers have not shown up to defend the homicide committed by this cop.
Maybe it’s beginning to dawn on them (after more, and more, and more of these cop shooting stories continue to come out) that the cop “barrel” has some VERY bad apples in it-—and the rot is spreading in the absence of bad apple removals.
