  • I remember hearing that they have to ask them to drop their weapon when they shot someone, and they even have to handcuff them, even if they’re obviously dead or at least not a threat anymore, just to make sure they follow the procedure. Is that true? I’ve also heard that they are advised to “magdump” i.e emptying their entire magazines on their target, to make absolutely sure they won’t have a second adrenaline-fueled wind and reach for a weapon.




  • I don’t know who this guy was and I’m not American, but I dissaprove of people vandalizing or destroying old statues. They should be removed from public view if they’re controversial, but they should be kept (if they have historical significance). Destruction of history, no matter how dark it was, is a crime in my eyes. Nobody would think about destroying concentration camps or the likes, even though they represent the most horrific part of our history. And besides, pretty much everyone born more than two centuries ago were assholes and bigots by today’s standard, it’s hard to judge when most of them probably did not know better. Again, not cautioning what this dude did, probably slavery and a great deal of killing I imagine.
