hero cops fire 34 shots into vehicle carrying two unarmed men, killing one, a father of three

[Goo Punch 4275]

what happened here is that these cops had been trying fruitlessly to arrest this guy for weeks because they knew that he possessed guns. they got themselves so hyped up (see: scared) about this guy potentially being armed that both heroes went into this situation essentially looking for a reason to kill him. the dude puts his car in reverse and both heroes fully unload the clips in their service weapons, after which one hero goes to his car, grabs a rifle, and continues shooting at the no longer moving car. total fucking scum. video at the link:

Holy shit...34 times and never hit what they were aiming at? Where they aiming at anything beside the car in general?

Now tell us the rest of the circumstances.

 

Rolling the fuck out of my eyes at the "Father of 3" descriptor having any bearing on the outcome.

 

For all of the shit the cops fuck up, there's stories like this one just trying to incite outrage.  "Dudes were just in their car trying to go donate blood and read stories at the oldfolks home when the pigs started blasting them."

Dude armed with vehicle  tries to run over cops and they make him too dead.

That's the gist of the story.

Like slorch says, don’t commit any crimes and the police won’t shoot you dead. It’s that simple.

Brah, they were just trying to wound him instead of going all center mass and shit.

All these years and some morons still don’t know the difference between a clip and a magazine?

[Parliament 14325]

I'm amazed by the complete lack of gun control and tactics by these guys.  Sweeping your partner, not using cover, etc.  Wow.

Department policy says deputies should not fire at a moving vehicle, or its occupants, unless a person in the automobile is “imminently threatening a department member or another person present with deadly force by means other than the moving vehicle.”

Of course, at the point the driver ran into the cop, it should be assumed all other risks of harming the officer or anyone in the general public were averted.

Just don't try to back over a cop and you won't get ventilated.  It's not hard.

Throwing it in reverse was not the best idea.

Fuck the police.

Pretty shocked that one cop didn't hit the other with how wildly he was firing at the beginning.

Cops shoot like the everyday patrons at Red’s Gun Range in Pflugerville.

Or someone on the top floor of that apartment complex. Jesus
