PhiloMan in Air Force uniform set himself on fire in front of Israeli embassy
TruthAintEasyI get it, the part that is weird to me is americans having so much one-way courage that they needed to pull their guns on a man who is... on fire! Do they think bullets can kill fire? Do they not know how hard it is to threaten anyone when your ON FIRE?
Reading is fundamental. Where did it say that he was shot? I’m not defending the cop but you’d probably be confused also since it isn’t every day you run into a guy in an embassy driveway on fire. Ever heard of a human trait called compassion?
SpaceNoodleDid you even read the article you posted?
Law enforcement also drew a gun on the burning man during the incident.
The person you’re replying to never said they shot him.
What does “do they think bullets can kill fire” mean?
Bullets come out of guns to kill things that the gun is pointed at when the trigger is pulled.
Absurdism in an absurd world, thats all
Are you stupid?
Not saying this is their reasoning, but if someone is on fire and running at you, a gun could kill them before they set you on fire. Also not saying this is their reasoning, but shooting someone who is suffering a fate they cannot undo could be considered merciful. So, shooting someone on fire could actually be effective.
You make a strong point, have an updoot
I never said they shot at him, just drew on him per the article
I'll admit I did not consider a mercy killing
Reading is fundamental as you said
