minus-squareInternetTubes@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up73arrow-down1·1 year agoI mean if you make your intent of murder clear, then yes, you run the risk of authorities killing you while trying to detain you.

minus-squareInternetTubes@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·1 year agoThe FBI clearly didn’t know that, al they could have known was that he was armed and making death threats.

minus-squaredtc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 year agoWhen you greet federal Investigators with a loaded weapon, you’re gonna have a bad time. The world lost nothing notable with the death of Walter whatshisname.
minus-squareUnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down6·1 year agoPlenty of chuds said the same thing about George Floyd and Tamir Rice. I’m less worried about Walter than I am about a couple of FBI guys mowing someone down in their own home on a wellness check. The goal of a professional police force is not to assassinate people based on some Internet goon’s perceived value of them.
