    This was a very confusing headline. It sounded like they were charging a dead person.

    Bottom line is:

    1. 18 year old gets shot by police
    2. The father of the 18 year old hit and killed a deputy with his car later on.

          ACAB after all. Even if he didn’t fire, they enable and protect each others murder of civilians, and their pet dogs.

        Dunno, they haven’t released the identity of the “victim” so we don’t know who the driver killed.

        I’m not going to go so far as to condone this dad’s behavior, but I can definitely understand it. Police are never held accountable; what else is there to expect than the spread of vigilante violence if the law won’t give us justice?

        Even if the deputy that was hit didn’t pull the trigger, they’re part of the institution that’s the problem. So the logic of the dad to target a deputy, even if they aren’t the one that shit his kid, makes sense in a way. I’m sure eventually we’ll know if this deputy was the one who killed the father’s 18 year old son.

      1. Bunch of fucking tweakers doing tweaker shit and the cops have to chase them.

      edit: yeah, ACAB but you motherfuckers do know that there is a subset of people out there doing crimes like car theft and shit, right? The citizens in this case don’t seem to be all that upstanding.

      One dead dude, one dead pig. Call it even?

          Yes, for the father to use lethal force on the corrupt racist deputy is a totally valid reason.

            If he had done in the cop that shot his son I’d be more inclined to agree. But he picked a rando. ACAB but not all of them deserve death because not all of them shoot people for little to no reason.
