Must be so scary living in America you might get shot by the cops because someone else wasn't doing anything wrong.
Imagine commuting back from your job, when suddenly you hear shoots around you. You look and see two police officers using your car as cover while they shoot a suspect in a UPS car just two cars in front on you.
I fucking hate new york state. I really don't know how we have a reputation of being a progressive state when the politicians make it a priority that if poor people want to actually have public transportation they better know they're at constant threat of being gunned down by the gestapo.
Imagine shooting someone over $3 in unpaid fares
Literally not firing the gun would have been the fiscally responsible decision.
Wasted $30 in ammo and shot like 6 people to stop somebody from not paying less than $3.
I know someone who's motorbike got stolen in Atlanta and the cops tracked the lo jack, then initiated a high speed chase that included a helicopter and briefly shut down part of the atlanta airport. They found the bike dumped in a forest near the airport and it ended up totaled out. This was a new bike, but like, an 8k one. When the person asked the cops why they went through all of that for such a cheap bike, they straight-up said they like causing high speed chases and exercising authority.
It's not about the money, it's about them getting to be cruel on your dime and you not having any recourse to stop them. They get off on that.
This country is so fucking wild.
Literal cowboy brainworm shit.
The cop quickly had to sort their inventory of handguns, this gun is for threatening my ex-wife, this gun is to shoot service workers over my cold burger, ah yes the shoot a black kid in the back for jumping fare handgun.
Can't wait for Adams' next primary opponent to run against him not because cops are shooting people over unpaid subway fares, but because the rounds of ammunition spent in the process were more expensive than the fare and so it's not efficient fascism.
this is a mass shooting, going by commonly accepted definition
I wake up
There is another mass shooting
More evidence of how he woke mob ruins America. STAY ASLEEP SHEEPLE
Man commits impromptu mass shooting after being engaged by witnessing fare evasion
In evil Soviet North Korea, those who cannot afford the train fare are punished with execution by gunshot.
In authoritarian China, laws are upheld by roaming executioners with a license to kill not only suspects, but bystanders as well
Death to Amerikkka. The crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood.
I'll give the cop the smallest bit of credit for almost getting rid of another.
Did they not murder the "suspect" who had just jumped over a turnstile?
The US is a fucking stereotype/parody of it itself. This is right out of an episode of South Park. Guy is evading fare so you pull out your gun and start shooting? Tf?!
Get out a little notebook and write down a description. Take a phone out and snap a picture. Follow him on the CCTV and have cops waiting for him at the next platform.
I'd make a better police officer than half these dumb ass pigs.
I think there's no way that's the reason they shot at him, I think it's more likely to be a power trip situation where they literally just wanted to kill someone. There's no world where a cop shoots at someone for jumping a turnstile as an enforcement tactic, that's just attempted murder for the first plausible excuse the pig could identify.
They claimed he had a knife because he kept his hands in his pockets
I think they're in critical condition as well as a bystander
God living in America must be scary every single day. Once again, I am thankful as fuck for not having been born there.
Mostly a subtle fear anytime I see cops in the subway. And a bit more now that there are some National Guardsmen in some of the bigger stations with their fingers on their automatic rifles.
new York is a whole new level of bad
TBF They’ve been there since 9/11 if not before.
Always thought it was telling people visiting NYC get off the train and one of the first things they see is a [redacted] with an automatic rifle.
How the fuck are the civilians supposed to pay the medical bills? This would literally end me
By suing the City and then not paying when the city only gives you like $5000
This shit would make the Hunger Games blush. This is parody levels of spin. This only happens if you're not accountable for your actions.
What a fucking asshole, but also unsurprising as another former pig and a shit mayor.
You think someone would just do that? You just lie on the internet
this is what happens when police dont have swords.

RIP in peace for saving the people that make those sandwiches
Jesus that's awful. Adams is just a fascist with a D next to his name.
