For those that don't get the joke, this is a reference the 2022 Uvalde school shooting incident. There was a crowd of cops that stayed outside for hours and refused to enter the school because they were afraid of getting shot.

They also threatened to arrest parents trying to stop the massacre

[–] TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 51 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Given everything going on with CBS, here's the article from the Associated Press syndicated in the linked article (seemingly updated a couple hours after the CBS-syndicated version).

[–] DragonAce@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

Oh yeah, good call. I didn't even think about that

[–] mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 51 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It’s even worse than that. They didn’t just refuse to enter the building. They actively prevented any other first responders from entering. So they not only refused to help, they actively made the situation worse.

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Those officers should have been charged as accomplices to the murders. They should have been tried under the state's felony murder law.

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

Sacked at minimum. If youre not capable of doing the job you shouldn't have the job.

Surely being a cop in the USA is like one of the highest likelihood of all the non-military jobs in the world to end up getting shot at. Its not like you can just say it wasnt in the jon description.

2022

No it wasn't. That was recent right?

COVID was last year right?

Skyrim is like 7 years old?

😭

[–] Darkmuch@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (2 children)

11/11/11 Skyrim release date.

[–] Zink@programming.dev 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Skyrim came out closer to the Dreamcast (9/9/99) than today.

[–] iocase@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Don't hit me with the Cleopatra moon landing pyramid comparison for Skyrim 😭😭😭😭

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Little known fact. Skyrim came out closer to the birth of Cleopatra than it did to the construction of the pyramids.

There are more atoms in a single water molecule than there are stars in the entire solar system.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

Skyrim came out closer to 9/11 than to today.

[–] Malyca@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Jfc remember how his Skyrim was? 😭

[–] helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The special edition will be 10 years this October.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmings.world 10 points 1 week ago

Also Parkland, where the school's resource officer cowered outside, and listened as the killer murdered the students one by one.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 40 points 1 week ago

That's really not fair.

Every day, campus resource officers bravely send kids through the criminal justice system and fuck up their entire lives for minor infractions.

[–] Eyekaytee@aussie.zone 20 points 1 week ago (2 children)

what’s the problem? is this another shitcunt american only joke?

[–] Godric@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Should I put it upside-down so dickhead emu-fuckers can read it?

[–] CannonFodder@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Can one actually fuck an emu? Asking for a friend ...

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

You need a step ladder and some Marvin Gaye music

[–] MeowerMisfit817@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

School shooting in 2022 (yes, at the US shitland) where the cops refused to enter the school.

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

And stopped first responders from entering also.

[–] Starduster75@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Imagine if parent's handled active shooter situations? There are not doors strong enough to have kept some of them out. Shooters might reconsider if they actually had to face the parent's wrath.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Imagine if we just gave all the kids guns. Really makes you think.

[–] Starduster75@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

We do. It's called "the Military".

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

This wouldn't have happened if the teachers had desk-mounted miniguns

[–] Chivera@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

He's waiting for backup then they can all wait outside together.

[–] DickFiasco@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 week ago

Just tell him there's a dog in the school that needs to be shot.

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

I guess the dad never learned the Uvalde grip. That'll give him the confidence he needs!

[–] Zkuld@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Why would a cop not enter a school?

[–] homes@piefed.world 22 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Because he has nothing to do until there are bodies to clean up

Children have a right to carry guns right up to the point that they’re done killing their classmates.

It’s the United States after all

Didn’t you know that we’re all living in hell?

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Because cops are ultimately cowards. They kill people in cold blood, but they only have that bravado because they know most people are never going to throw their lives away trying to stop them. Cops are not skilled marksman or particularly brave. They just operate in an environment where they can use force on people, but no one will ever use force back on them. This is why they act like such assholes. They'll escalate situations. They'll introduce violence to scenarios where none was previously present. They'll demonstrate extreme aggression...but only so long as they believe they're perfectly safe. How often do you hear about a cop beating someone, and a random uninvolved passerby just pulling out a gun and blowing their head off while they're in the act of brutalizing someone? It never happens. People aren't willing to throw their lives away to rescue others from police violence. So cops can victimize people with impunity.

Except, once in awhile they run into someone that IS willing to throw their life away. A school shooter is clearly willing to shoot at cops. If you're willing to kill kids, you'll certainly be willing to kill a cop. When they actually face the chance of someone fighting back, they run like the cowards they are.

Brave people don't become police officers. People looking to have power over others become police officers.
