I'm just really struggling to figure out in what world does it make sense to enter and reach for something in your car when you have guns being pointed at your FACE Let's put it this way, your friend has an accident because he did something stupid like not seeing a stop sign, and gets paralyzed. Is your first instinct to tell them how stupid they are? Of course not. You would not be wrong, you would just be an a-hole to do that as a first instinct. chaeri pls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah at first I was unsure why people were getting so butthurt over me pointing out the lack of logic being used but yeah it was pretty insensitive.

Was it the best thing for him to do? of course not. But that being your first reaction means you're blaming the victim. And saying it's natural selection means you're an a*shole.

I was just pointing out the stupidity of his actions when you literally admit the police are known for being trigger happy and there's a literal gun in his face LMAO. I mean, yeah. I see why it's insensitive, doesn't really change the fact. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cops are trigger happy, corrupt and mostly racist but when you have a gun being pointed at your face it's very easy to know what NOT to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
