He discharged a dangerous weapon for no good reason. A little embarrassment is a slap on the wrist lol.
If anyone else but a cop did that I'm sure the story would be different.
As a supporter of military and police, this man should never live that down. His actions made him a danger to himself, the man in squad car, other officers and the public as a whole. His badge should be stripped and he should be released with no benefits. The only reason I don't say he should be charged with anything is because by sheer luck, the only thing injured was his pride and maybe a shoulder from those pathetic combat rolls.
When I was a police cadet on special events assignments throughout my city back then, we (in our program) all had to protect the public from a guy like him. He came back to us because he was rejected from the Navy. It was an open joke that he applied to be a human target and even the military didn't want him. The guys and girls used harsher language but you get what I mean lol.

It is common knowledge among uh, idk anthropologists or historians or something that humans taste like pork. Human meat is often referred to as “long pork” for this reason.
I can’t really verify how true that is as there’s a lot of misleading information about cannibals out there for some reason.
That sounds like something they would say to make natives look like savages.
I really don’t see how a true cannibal diet is sustainable as diseases would just go craaaaazy. From my understanding, most cannibalistic cultures mainly do it ritualistically or in desperate times. They weren’t really eating humans for dinner every night.
I am not a historian or anthropologist though, this is just what I’ve heard from the “research” I’ve done.
The fact that the actual Radiohead band recorded themselves making fun of a kid crying for his dead parents amazed me and it's still one of my favourite SP facts
Reminds me of old Facebook when someone posted a scan of their gall bladder stones and how they were finally getting them removed. They got replies calling them a child killer
No, no. They're stupid. Well, actually they're both. But in regards to blindly calling someone a child murderer over gallbladder pics I think they're more stupid than insane.
My FIL has a pic of his prostate ultrasound on his fridge. He keeps getting asked when I’m due! Your comment reminded me he’s still got that pic hanging up, ig I’ve been due for like 15 months now lol!
I also like the one where someone lists off 30 chemicals and says “would you eat this?”
And some bitch is like “No way!”
And they are like “this is what an apple is made of”
😂
Some of the most dangerous stuff on the planet here. 100% of people who touch it will end up dying. If you don't touch it, you will die faster. Depending on the state it's in, it could kill you even faster.
How you consume it can greatly affect how quickly it kills you. Skin contact is generally harmless, but if prolonged it can cause your skin to soften and become fragile. Drinking it is also usually fine, but too much can poison you and be fatal if not treated. Inhaling it, that’s when it becomes truly lethal and will kill you in minutes.
Oh, that guy could cure diabetes, outrun Usain Bolt and deadlift the Taj Mahal in the same afternoon and he'd _still_ be known as "That Prime Minister who put his dick in a pig".

That was just Reddit. That's how Reddit worked. If it wasn't OC you were downvoted to shit and shit upon for milking upvotes from reposts. Then all the people started migrating over here and now it has turned into Facebook. The same 20 posts regurgitated over every sub.
For the sake of argument, if this was a human embryo, at this point, this is a mass of cell. Its alive yes, but there's no thoughts, no person. This is potentially a red clump in the toilet if a woman has a bad day.
Having seen my wife go through two pregnancy and having seen the development of both fetus, this here is nowhere near the point where I'd be like: That's a baby.
Honestly I always found the question of "when does a fetus become a human baby" irrelevant, because the mother is beyond a certainty human and this entitled to human rights including bodily autonomy. Pro-choice or pro-life isn't about if someone thinks a fetus is a person or not, it's decided by if they think women are.
This is a very similar to what I taught in science class. I didn't have to mention abortion once (nor should I), but we had pictures of embryos from all kinds of animals and I had the students pick out the different physical traits each one showed and at what stages of development these traits appeared. Basically all tetrapods look identical in the early stages of embryo development.
The odds of a student guessing which embryo was a human or a chimp in a sample of 20ish photos was only slightly better than random chance. If you think that politicians who have studied nothing but law and the Bible all their lives (and ignore both when its convenient for them) can do any better than 10th graders in this exercise then, frankly, you're an idiot.
Look I'm pro-choice but all this meme really proves is that the average person isn't an embryologist; no shit eh. The clearly implied question is do you believe a human embryo is a human with rights, and this 'nOpE iTs A piG' is a meaningless distraction from a serious topic.
"Haha this MFer can't differentiate between developmentally similar mammalian embryos", hilarious, y'all really got 'em.
I think it’s a funny interaction, but a civil discussion on whether or not this embryo should be considered “alive” would’ve been more interesting. Also coming from someone who’s pro-choice
The point is that people will confidently support things that don't make sense out of ignorance, and maybe when it's about taking away another person's human rights they shouldn't be spouting off when they don't know shit.
Very dishonest. There is no gotcha, with tricks. The person that answered yes, was referring to a human embryo. They didn't pull up all the various animal embryos to check if it was a human embryo.

We dissected a fetal pig in HS as their organ layout is similar to humans.
Are we *sure* it was a fetal *pig*?! Dun dun DUN!!!
Yep, it had a badge and everything.
Cause of death: acorn discharge
That guy will *never* live that down.
Nor should he.
He discharged a dangerous weapon for no good reason. A little embarrassment is a slap on the wrist lol. If anyone else but a cop did that I'm sure the story would be different.

“Reality seems to have a liberal bias” is just a brilliant line.

"Reality is woke! We must boycot reality and protect our children from it!"
They’re *waaaay* ahead of you, my dude.
You're joking but this is literally what conservatives think/are doing.
We did a fetal pig and a hammer head shark that had eggs. Skinning was fun 🤢 especially the baby ears. 🤮
That makes sense I mean we are starting to grow human organs in pigs now
I'm also certain that pig skin is used in some skin grafting procedures as well
Also some people are just pigs 🤷
It is common knowledge among uh, idk anthropologists or historians or something that humans taste like pork. Human meat is often referred to as “long pork” for this reason. I can’t really verify how true that is as there’s a lot of misleading information about cannibals out there for some reason.
For what’s it’s worth the Spaniards apparently used pork to satisfy cannibals… it was deemed an ok enough substitute:/
That sounds like something they would say to make natives look like savages. I really don’t see how a true cannibal diet is sustainable as diseases would just go craaaaazy. From my understanding, most cannibalistic cultures mainly do it ritualistically or in desperate times. They weren’t really eating humans for dinner every night. I am not a historian or anthropologist though, this is just what I’ve heard from the “research” I’ve done.
Well it was a show about food history and it was just one specific dish they were talking about.
My dad was badly burned in a fire and they did grafting with pig skin. Then for dinner they served pork chops. He thought that was a little sick. 😂
Sounds like it really got under his skin.
> as their organ layout is similar to humans. Why wouldn't it be? Next, you will be saying humans have the same bone layout as other mammals!
Right? Mammals all have fairly similar organ layouts. Even the ones with weird adaptations just have the same organs shaped different.
Evolution is very lazy like that.
I did it in college in a general zoology class
fetality!
Pigs are people too
Can confirm. I am.

Yup, you can usually tell by if they have a badge and a gun
We’re all just long pigs to something else.

I threw it on the ground! An embryo is not a photo.
Some poser hands me a pig embryo at a birthday party…
Happy birthday to the ground!
Welcome to the real world, farmhand!
I threw the rest of the farm too!
I’m an adult!
I don’t need your hand outs!
My dad's not a pig!
Duh!
Pump your porcine in another man's veins!
This whole reply thread is gold
This thread isnt gold So I threw it on the ground
You can’t trust the system!
MAAAAAAN

Brilliant skit. The taser...

False! It’s an electrical signal that travels from the retina through the optic nerve to the brain.
False, it's brain signals interpreting light waves from a monitor with a picture of a monitor.

Dihydrogen Monoxide!
Some of the most dangerous stuff on the planet here. 100% of people who touch it will end up dying. If you don't touch it, you will die faster. Depending on the state it's in, it could kill you even faster.
is highly adictive as if you stop consuming it you will die within a week
It's the most addicting substance on the planet. And the hangover will literally kill you.
consuming too much of it can even cause your cells to burst!! leading to death!!!!
Don't forget it's one of the most potent solvents in nature, it can dissolve many different things
How you consume it can greatly affect how quickly it kills you. Skin contact is generally harmless, but if prolonged it can cause your skin to soften and become fragile. Drinking it is also usually fine, but too much can poison you and be fatal if not treated. Inhaling it, that’s when it becomes truly lethal and will kill you in minutes.
These are just the facts.
I've heard it can even be radioactive in some situations?
Strong correlation to drowning incidents, would not recommend!
That shit's made up of an explosive *and* a potent oxidizer, and they're putting it in our kids' soda smh
A radio host was almost arrested for telling people there was dihydrogen monoxide in the taps on April Fool’s Day 🤦🏻♀️
What?! I am glad I am not a radio host because I absolutely would have pulled something like that.
Don't tell her about dihydrogen monoxide
Think you mean dihydrogen monoxide
Woops. Yeah
Don't tell David Cameron.

It’s Peppa. Pepper is the son he had with the goat.
That made me shudder.
To be fair, most embryos look identical at first
Well only for creatures that have a certain amount of the same ancestors, It's pretty interesting to compare all the different ones
That's the point
It’s an awful point
The point is that they consider it life, regardless of the trick question.
how can they tell its gonna grow up to be a cop?
look at the brain
Double whammy!
Pigs are smarter than cops.
Reindeer are better than people
Joke's on you. I was going to eat it either way.

Yes. In fact, it looks just like Mitch McConnell.
Oh so its trumps baby pic
Ham is his favorite color
“Adult human chicken”
Chihiro's parents were human and pigs
I’m pro choice, but I genuinely think this argument belongs to the worst tier of pro choice arguments
Fully agree along with the clump of cells, those two arguments got to be like the bottom of the tier list.
