Audio from bystander video indicates 11 shots were fired before Wilson died from two gunshot wounds, while the department’s posted policy sharply restricts shooting at moving vehicles.

Shot dead because this is MURiCAHHH. And we are sociopaths here. USA USA USA… 🤮
Edit:
To the idiot that downvoted, what other country have you heard of where police has shot a woman for defending herself?
TBF, as someone else pointed out, people may click on up or down accidentally.
Also, sometimes there have been rather…hot takes. For instance, I’ve just asked the question about why AI data centers seem to be the one issue that galvanizes resistance, and that question was downvoted like a mofo, LOL.
Seems like resistance to AI is religious here for some reason.
Usually I would write “almost” on such issues, but it’s so bad I can’t in good faith call it only almost.
I think it’s because most people on Lemmy are technologically literate enough and over exposed enough to AI that’s it’s basically reached a stage where banning it is the default opinion. Personally I just think it’s a stupid waste of resources and want these fucking LLM companies to all go bankrupt.
100% with you on that. In 2000 I personally predicted that AI would approach human intelligence around 2030, but I never dreamed it would be this useless.
I’m a bit astonished that I nailed it so closely, it was purely based on estimating the compute power available, and that software would progress together with that. And the estimated power of AI at the time considered to be around the level of a bee.
But I must say I’m disappointed in the application of it, and the crazy raze to invest in and
monetize(attempting to monopolize) it. And how both capable and stupid it is at the same time.As usual trans women are just seen as “acceptable” targets. Those cops have been itching to murder a minority and finally got what they saw as their opportunity. They knew what they were doing.
In a civilized country, that officer would be tried for murder.
I am not aware of any other democracy where the police can run around killing people at will and even in their homes, without being tried for murder.
When I write democracy I know USA is not really a democracy, but only a flawed democracy, or a 2nd rate democracy.
You want a full list of countries? Or are we restricting this to a single continent? Or NATO block? Or what?
Because Israel is some low hanging fruit.
China. But they’re more about black bagging you and taking you to a facility. To be technical “trans” magically doesn’t exist in China, they’ve all been killed, beaton to the point of they’re “not trans” anymore or hiding hoping no one finds out.
You can downvote the fuck out of me, but it doesn’t mean it isn’t true because you don’t like it.
PS I didn’t downvote you, just answered your question.
Edit. Pretty much any Islamic country too. Forgot to add Russia, they’re homophobic as shit.
What you need to understand is in these countries, their governments control news, period. These things happen all over, you just won’t hear about them because that’s how they work. The US along with other first world countries share and report information. So it’s incredibly easy to criticize them when horrible things like this happen. It’s hard to criticize something that’s never released.
Not to diminish the point being made, but there are a lot of countries that commit widespread or even state-sanctioned violence against women. Most of them are third-world hellholes. So the US is in good company.
I am more sad nobody even seems to care when victim is trans. People just ignore.
