Somebody should call the cops on him

"But there's no prior case that establishes that a cop would know shooting an Australian journalist in the foot on a Sunday is illegal. Qualified immunity applies."

-American jurisprudence, probably

Not like Australia is an ally or anything

they dont seek to deny it

Just a whole bunch of Carcers in uniform, aren't they?

I think this is why I've always found Night Watch a tough read... Carcer might be a fictional character but he's far too close to the bone for comfort.

Carcers and Quirks.

I don't know how many times I saw cops do that to reporters who were covering the BLM rallies. Just brazen and blatant disregard for their rights and safety. I don't know if a single cop was charged or lost their job.

It’s who they have ALWAYS been. They shot Ruben Salazar in the head with a tear gas grenade while he was sitting in a bar with his back to them in 1970.

It’s this, a thousand-fold. Every fucking cop out there. https://bsky.app/profile/sml47.bsky.social/post/3lr5culrvf22t

Yeah. But nothing will happen.

I’m going to go ahead and not share my follow up thoughts on a public social media site.

Oh something will happen alright:

He'll get a paid vacation and then be back on duty like nothing ever happened.

Worst case, he'll get "fired" only to get hired on the next city/county over.

Gotta love that Thin Blue Line™.

JFC.

That guy has been waiting half his life for a reason to shoot AT someone and he thinks he’ll get away with it.

It happened multiple times in Ferguson and no one got punished. It's an absolute farce. People lost eyes!

kmrst.bsky.social•18 days ago

I can't remember which protest it was from, but a reporter who was shot in the eye died a few months later from complications.

Linda Tirado. She's been in failing health due to that shot for quite some time but she posted on Twitter within the past hour.

I saw lots of cops aiming for faces. They know what they are doing.
