Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

So I watch the video and Jesus fucking Christ. That man should not be allowed to own a gun.

I wonder if he's a veteran or something because his reaction seemed like abject terror and panic. Regardless , no one should have let that man have a gun if he's so terrified and unstable.

I think he is a product of copaganda. If he was a vet, he wasn't combat.

The article said he did two tours overseas

Edit: the first comment stated the 2 tours, without any link to back it up. My bad

Idk and nobody I know is shooting cars because of an acorn. I've never considered it either.

No combat vet is blindly lighting up a random object because of it. I'm calling bullshit on his story..

lol of course they light up random things because they want to. They willingly join an organization that constantly attacks other countries. That organization is just better at hiding the truth. Every time there is a leak you see the horrible actions committed by the psychos

I think you're missing my point.

The cops sob story of PTSD is bullshit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

PTSD is a very serious issue, and you don't even need to get shot at in war to get it, all that sheepdog cop propaganda can and will seriously give people PTSD just from having to go through it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

I had PTSD as a teenager and as an combat vet. This cops excuse is bullshit.
