    Imagine something going wrong here, like a balloon pop in the background. These guys would probably just massacre everyone.

        😂.

        As Hernandez approached the passenger side door of his patrol car, he heard a popping sound which he later told investigators he perceived to be a gunshot. And he said he believed he had been hit.

        “He began yelling ‘shots fired’ multiple times, falling to the ground and rolling,” the sheriff’s report said. “He fired into the patrol car.”

        Lmao cops are ridiculous…

          Yeah. Hahaha! What silly little guys that are given legal weapons and trained to perceive everything around them as a lethal threat! They’re so funny with how they murder people over nothing and are almost never held to account. How ridiculous! /s

          He heard an acorn fall and then tried to kill the person he left defenseless in his patrol car over it. I don’t know why that’s funny. Stupid, yes. Funny, absolutely not.

            It’s more of a nervous laughter 😅 not haha laughter. It’s ridiculous because this is what we’re dealing with. A bunch of goons with guns that hear any noise and think they’ve been shot and immediately start blasting.

            This more accurately reflects me as I was reading the article
