Seems reasonable
Bombing a house in the middle of a residential area seems "reasonable"?
A judge and jury found the police department used unnecessary excessive violence and violated constitutional protections against unlawful searches.
That's definitely sarcastic.
We got some messed up people on this site already we can never be too sure.
I hope so, yes.
What?
Yeah the city police had and used it. Crazy, right?
What is an anti tank machine gun?
In WWI there were attempts to bring down early tanks with heavy machine guns (the armor was not that thick back then)... but i am not sure if this is an official category.
ehhhh, I assume the guy meant an anti-material rifle? or some sort of autocannon if it actually is like a machinegun because anti-tank rifles are very antiquated and not a thing anymore, at least as a modern term for these weapons. That kind of thing got phased out since world war 2.
My best guess is that they meant an M2 browning and just knew they were mounted on some tanks, then assumed they were meant for tanks. They were meant for AP and AA use if im not misremembering.
A big gun with big bullets that shoots really fast. Fuck if I know the model, but the police had and used it in this event.
I'm constantly told the 2nd amendment exists for the express purpose of shooting cops. Are you saying the 2nd amendment is in the wrong here and that police should have access to weapons denied to ordinary people?
2nd amendment is supposed to keep the government in check. the fact there are guns citizens cannot get but the government can is a travesty
I want a god damn 25 megaton nuke tyvm.
Where's my crew-served armaments? When do I get to own a cruiser?
I need a recreational 50 Megatone McNuke
