minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink73•2 years agoI mean if you make your intent of murder clear, then yes, you run the risk of authorities killing you while trying to detain you.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink8•2 years agoThe FBI clearly didn’t know that, al they could have known was that he was armed and making death threats.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•2 years agoDamn. What does the “I” in FBI even stand for anyway?
