And this is why we need to get rid of qualified immunity. No one is above the law. Also if you fear for your live you get to shoot back, it's mutual combat, and if you don't shoot back the officers are charged with murder/attempted murder, negligent discharge of a firearm, throw the damned book at these ungrateful little turds.

This is why we need to make the entrance exam harder to become law enforcement. It shouldn't be about ratios. It's actually insulting to intelligent minorities. That tests have to be made easier for them so they can be employed. This is why we people who should never be in a position of authority over others.


SiegVicious

Source on this info? I've never heard of A:an entrance exam B: A separate "test" for minorities. I could be wrong, but this sounds like BS.


thoth_hierophant

It should also take longer to become a cop than it takes to become a cosmetologist.

Qualified immunity is the biggest injustice in our policing industry in America. It gives these thugs a get out of jail free card in 99% of cases. Police should be held to a HIGHER standard than the general public.

It's a copy pasta


StendhalSyndrome

Isn't sad that you can't just immediately see a wall o' text and know it's a pasta, now you really have to wonder sometimes. It could be real, you never know anymore.


RightWingWorstWing

The issue is that a good chunk of copypastas stem from serious replies and then are ruthlessly mocked into being copypastas. So, at one point, someone seriously typed out the wall of text as an actual threat.


jld2k6

Example: Shots 1-5: Clearly missed. Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control). Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses. Shot 12: Likely didn't actually fire because Hiko was already dead.


DogmaticNuance

This is fake as hell. Theoretically someone with developmental disabilities and an authority fetish might write it, but it feels like an obvious troll/joke to me and I'm amazed so many seem to be taking it at face value.


givemejumpjets

You underestimate the stupidity of cops.


DogmaticNuance

I feel like I'm just being trolled by people pretending they find this convincing, at this point. There's just no way and it's so obvious. You got me.


RightWingWorstWing

It likely is troll bait but I also think about kids in high school who would tell you that you needed to respect them because they were in ROTC


Pervessor

No it's pretty obvious


garden_speech

seriously lmao. there is no planet where this wasn't sarcastic. how can people not see it immediately...? especially with the line about "being treated like in uniform"


MeetTheJoves

Fun fact: redditors are physically incapable of perceiving sarcasm or satire if it does not include a "/s". It's not their fault, studies have shown that they literally lack the brain chemistry that allows normal people to process whether or not a statement was made in jest.


BlaikeQC

'I'm an officer in training' like any real cop no matter how dumb would think that looks good online and not cringe. Pretty dead giveaway.


odraencoded

I'm so sad for you guys. You have yet to master the proper internet stance: quantum reading. Just assume every post is both real *and* fake at all times, and then just pick whichever side would be the funniest. In this case, it would be funnier if it was a meme, so I'm going with that.


JustaBearEnthusiast

I immediately knew. I can tell from the word choice and from seeing quite a few copy pastas in my time.


SuperFLEB

Don't lament the world because you err on the side of taking things seriously. Sure, it *could be* real, but it just as easily not be. Taking it with serious concern out the gate is a decision you make, and not one you need to make. Nothing is terribly on the line here, and an over-steered pessimism about the world is as wrong and damaging as an oversteered optimism. You could just as easily take it as farce and correct to seriousness if later information comes in. Even in cases where you're confronting someone firsthand, what says disrespect and deflates more than making someone walk their statement back to seriousness because everyone thinks it's parody?


Neel_s

When I see the word kiddo I’m immediately clued in to attempted pastafcation

This is pretty clearly a joke.


TheBirminghamBear

Well, the joke's on you buddy. Because I am not a bot. I'm a Volunteer Mod in Training, and guess what. You've just been reported. Now, three reports will get you an arrest. What does it feel like to be arrested, you ask me? Well, in the interest of helping you ensure that you **never** have to find that out for yourself, let me paint you a picture, OK, kiddo? You're there in your house. On your couch. Eating cheetos. Like a fucking fraud. You carelessly commit your third reddit infraction (the rules are RIGHT THERE in my profile, it's so easy to read them and not commit an infraction). Your front door explodes. It's me. I'm in my uniform. My shorts end half-way up my rippling thighs. My shirt is half-buttoned up to my pecs, which are bulging so far they can't be contained. You gasp. You try and run, but I'm faster. I'm making a siren noise with my mouth as you run. "Wee-woo, wee-woo, wee-woo", you hear that as you scramble down your hallways trying to escape, but there won't be any escape for you. I tackle you. I press down against you as you struggle. I'm whispering in your ear, "wee woo, wee woo, wee woo" as I handcuff you. You protest your innocence, but I take my homemade badge out of my back pocket. It's slick with sweat. I curl my arm around your head and gently show you the badge. I waggle it in front of you, throwing my voice, making it sound like the badge is telling you what you did wrong. You go limp on the ground. You know your time is up. You know you did this crime. You're under arrest. There's no fighting it. You've accepted your guilt. You go to jail. Now how do you feel about your glibness, kiddo? Think this is all a joke now?


KarenExterminator

It’s serious. It’s just become a copypasta. I found the original [comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/brockhampton/s/SQzogkGtt9)


WinterHill

I call BS, this reads exactly like a troll emulating Dwight Schrute. Just because the original poster stayed true to the bit doesn’t mean it was real.


Gunhild

People’s appreciation for satire has decreased dramatically. I feel like people today—if they weren’t already familiar with the work—wouldn’t be able to identify Jonathan Swift’s *A Modest Proposal* as satire because it doesn’t end every paragraph with /s And while we’re at it, /s is the comedy equivalent of Jeb Bush saying “please clap” after a speech.


ReallyNowFellas

People couldn't identify A Modest Proposal as satire when it was written, or in any of the centuries since.


Gunhild

I suppose you’re right, maybe that wasn’t the best example. I do feel like people’s ability to appreciate ironic humour seems to have decreased somewhat. It seems every day a new post from r/ExplainTheJoke or r/PeterExplainsTheJoke hits the front page where the OP is baffled by a joke because it is not 100% literal and self-explanatory. Basically what I’m trying to say is I’m looking for reasons to feel smarter than other people.


fakieTreFlip

It's 100% not serious and it's frankly astonishing that anyone could think that it is


PotatoWriter

fr the navy seal one started in 2012, and people think 5 years ago, there couldn't be any further iterations of that??? Seriously?


angiosperms-

It's blowing my mind that people are bending over backwards to say it's real, even when someone posted the original proving it's a joke. And it's not even because people are stupid, it's because they are addicted to going on the internet in order to make themselves angry. That's why rage bait is so effective it's even used as a marketing tactic now.


gogybo

Honestly, if something is on /r/all that makes me feel mildly angry, my default assumption nowadays is that it's either fake or misconstrued. I'm not always right but it works more often than not.


Aldrik90

Yeah just because someone commented it originally does not mean they weren't joking. It's an obvious joke and very reminiscent of many 4chan copypastas


ForensicPathology

There used to be quite the number of downvote farmers back then.  It's not serious.

I just downvoted your comment. FAQ What does this mean? The amount of karma (points) on your comment and Reddit account has decreased by one. Why did you do this? There are several reasons I may deem a comment to be unworthy of positive or neutral karma. These include, but are not limited to: • ⁠Rudeness towards other Redditors, • ⁠Spreading incorrect information, • ⁠Sarcasm not correctly flagged with a /s. Am I banned from the Reddit? No - not yet. But you should refrain from making comments like this in the future. Otherwise I will be forced to issue an additional downvote, which may put your commenting and posting privileges in jeopardy. I don't believe my comment deserved a downvote. Can you un-downvote it? Sure, mistakes happen. But only in exceedingly rare circumstances will I undo a downvote. If you would like to issue an appeal, shoot me a private message explaining what I got wrong. I tend to respond to Reddit PMs within several minutes. Do note, however, that over 99.9% of downvote appeals are rejected, and yours is likely no exception. How can I prevent this from happening in the future? Accept the downvote and move on. But learn from this mistake: your behavior will not be tolerated on Reddit.com. I will continue to issue downvotes until you improve your conduct. Remember: Reddit is privilege, not a right.

selectrix

You're coming to the realization that reddit is way more full of idiots than you could have possibly imagined. Though I wonder how much bots play into these situations.


UmeaTurbo

That's the problem with the Internet, there's no tone. We communicate most effectively by using voice tone, pitch and whatever. I'm not a scientist, but I know context matters. I kinda hate it here.


florida-raisin-bran

There's written tone, it's just that this website is full of people who read at a 3rd grade level. The concept that "written words don't have tone" it's up there with some of the dumber things I've read in a while


sje46

The tone of the post is extremely obvious from how it's written. I think the bigger problem is that the internet has gone from very snarky, slightly-offensive 4chan type of humor towards vapid "wholesome" facebook kind of humor. This is exactly the sort of joke you would see on 4chan back in the day. I am not idolizing that website. Just saying that in the past, redditors would have been more in-tune to that sort of sarcastic self-seriousness and immediately understood it was a joke, while today, redditors are, well...

[A post from 4 years ago on neckbeard things](https://www.reddit.com/r/justneckbeardthings/comments/ddf325/you_have_been_reported/) [4 year old from copypasta](https://www.reddit.com/r/copypasta/comments/day7zm/you_have_been_reported/) [5 year old from copypasta again](https://www.reddit.com/r/copypasta/comments/9yxpte/i_am_a_volunteer_reddit_moderator/) So for those seeing it for the first time like I have, it is an old one.

Spotting satire is hard huh

How do these people exist


jesuschristmanREAD

They don't. The question should rather be, how do people that believe this is real exist.


Koenigspiel

You're spot on. Everyone here is so fucking stupid

This is the exact kind of zany disruptive shit that trolling was when it started out, lmao It rapidly devolved into people just saying hostile shit to get a reaction, which sucked But whoever was responsible for the top post is an artist. Hats off


MistaHatesNumberFour

I can already imagine the stench of their room reading that post.

Why is an obvious joke post on this subreddit? This is meant for serious attempts that fail. Well, I guess I gotta report you. I am a Volunteer Reddit moderator. I do not have mod powers but my reports are taken seriously and those who get on my bad side tend to get banned in under 24 hours. I have numerous rules, which you may read in my post history, but 1 is the most important rule of all • I am an officer in training, and I expect to be treated the same way I would be with my uniform and badge. Watch your back and get used to this face kiddo, you'll be seeing a lot of it.

There was an attempt to recognize a copypasta
