NYPD shot four people - including two bystanders one who is in critical condition - and another cop over a $2.90 fare.

  • No, it's actually nothing like that at all because I don't believe that happens often at all.

    Whereas people pulling guns and knives on others, cops included, happens all the damn time.

  • that image doesn’t tell us anything.

    The comment I responded to says,

    Probably because there was no knife in the footage.

    So, I provided a still of the footage showing a knife.

    Sure, we don't know for sure who it is but I have a pretty good guess.

    I too await the full footage.

  • There's no arguing with you if there's no sources you believe.

    You could say the same if I linked the whole damn video.

    But we know whether there was a knife or not isn't what you or most people on Lemmy care about. You don't like cops so therefore they were wrong. Facts be damned.

  • If I get back into it, I’ll probably try out Bigscreen. I haven’t dug deep enough into it to know if it requires an account but I wouldn’t expect this one to require it.

  • I’m always “armed” with my pocket knife, should I start dodging bullets?

    Would you pull it without being specifically asked to in a police encounter? Don't be obtuse. (Edit: And say you'll kill them)

    I have no problem waiting for a video to decide on this one, personally. But the title is dogshit.

    2nd edit: Here's another source which has a still of the video, showing the knife.

    I conceal carry. Believe it or not, I would inform police that I'm carrying as soon as an encounter starts, tell them where it is on my person, and ask if they would like to see my CCW license. But I'm not a fucking idiot, so...

  • the man cops said was armed with a knife

    Title is meant to make you believe the shooting is about the fare. That seems deliberate.

    • Trying to build viable third parties by voting for them in presidential elections is like trying to build a third door in your house by repeatedly walking into the wall where you want the door to be.

  • What was some of the difficulty you ran into?

    I haven’t had to do anything weird but I don’t need anything outside of flatpaks usually.

    For most other things a container with more traditional package management works well.

  • That’s not entirely true.

    When I took my concealed carry class in Tx there was a section on this.

    It depends heavily on the relationship between you and the owner of the property. The example given in the class was a good neighbor relationship and suggested talking about this before something happened.

    I would expect that if the shooter and the owner are in contact during the event to weigh heavily on it.

    The gist is, it depends state-to-state but I would expect that their relationship would make an otherwise LEGAL use of a firearm OK. (I’m really not sure if this is a legal use…)

  • So you get… support for getting rid of FPTP. But no actual changes because you’re lucky to get 5% of the vote.

    I think in reality you get to feel like you’ve washed your hands of it and “did what you could” and then after the election you can say, “hey, I didn’t vote for them” and feel good inside.

    In other words, fuck all.
