TopicCop hears an acorn hit his car and empties a clip into in his police car...

That's like every problem with US police at once.

1) be stupid enough to mistake a ACORN for a gunshot.

2) Be cold to empty all your ammo, going for the kill. These are not shots to defend yourself, these are not shots to protect others, this is shooting to fucking KILL.

3) Don't give a fuck about the guy you shot at right now at all. Maybe he dead. Maybe he bleeding to death right now, fighting for his life, every single second. Who knows? Who cares? Not the cops.

You may be able to somehow excuse the 1&2 with "heat of the moment" or "it's they or them" argument. In some rare cases, they are even valid and legit points (this is none of them).

But never, never, never, can you make an argument to not give a shit about the person you just used (or tried to use) lethal force upon, and that's something you see in more or less every fucking US bodycam.
