@Tattooed_Mummy @corbden THANK YOU. It’s important to remember. The u.s. legal system is so fucked up. We know what we can be, though

They weren't cops, they're glorified bailiffs only allowed to go after specific individuals. This was just a murder.

@VictimOfSimony @Tattooed_Mummy US cops aren't really cops either, they are uneducated goons in uniform. When ICE and cops go around killing people it is exactly the same issue.

There are laws regarding what government employees can and can't have on their clothes. I'm referring to the criminal offense the shooter was technically committing.

It was an extra-judicial summary execution.

@pdarcey thank you

@Tattooed_Mummy I mean, this is kind of a necessary pre-supposition of innocent until proven guilty. And the idea that we must obey any arbitrary commands by… well, anybody… under penalty of summary execution kind of short circuits that whole concept.

@Tattooed_Mummy The idea that we can be killed for not jumping fast enough to obey whatever demeaning or possibly hazardous command a pig gives us without thought destroys any concept of human freedom or dignity. It’s akin to the command that we just give the mugger our wallet and watch. We may do so anyway in order to survive and live our life or seek revenge, but enshrining it in law is fundamentally illegitimate. In the sense of bastardization.

@Tattooed_Mummy Any state built on the sand of such a concept should promptly die. If not on its own, then with all hands and voices raised against it.

And they didn't even bother to make it a law officially.

@bjb @Tattooed_Mummy When the law comes out of the barrel of a gun, who even needs the law.

@Tattooed_Mummy Funny how if *I* fear for my life and defend myself from the cop, I'd die and he'd get praised for it.

@Tattooed_Mummy I think decades of US tv shows have taught people differently. I'm always somewhat upset when the 'resolution' in a show to a search for a criminal ends up being the police murdering said criminal.
