You say that like I have anything to do with this instance. I made an account here 4 years ago and when I wanted to actually use lemmy every instance had approval turned on. I didn’t want to deal with that shit so I just used this account.
but anyway, keep crying about whatever political beliefs you think I have based on one comment
If the dude was threatening the cops with a knife there’s no way they would have let the knife out of their sight. I doubt there ever was a knife, and if there ever was it sounds like they abandoned the weapon to go kill the guy.
What are they referencing in the first instance?
If it’s the subway thing, I’m pretty sure you need four people to be a mass shooting.
Also don’t pull knives on cops.
because the only way to deal with someone who has a knife is to shoot them in the head and be the judge jury and executioner :)
You could always try less than lethal weapons, like a Taser.
Oh wait, they did. Twice.
You could let the asshole go and not be a murderer
So he can threaten someone else with a knife? That dude was a time bomb.
Yeah someone could get killed if he got away! Oh wait …
Wild that people would suggest that if someone threatens the police with a knife they should decide to let them go.
Andy they would be screaming if he then proceeded to attack someone else.
Yeah, the intention is just to divide people.

I don’t think objecting to police brutality and summary execution is authoritarian. That’s more like the opposite.

Yes, of course that’s not authoritarian, but it is probably authoritarian propaganda.

A good reminder of the effort I’ve put in fighting authoritarian propaganda, thanks.

Did they wind up finding the knife? Last I heard they weren’t able to, which cast doubt on its existence.

and even more importantly: always believe whatever the cops say! :)
