Sorry I misspoke, the finger gunner didn't have the no contact order against him, the woman he was walking with did, but still.

Also apparently a third party rang in the 911 call, not the offended party.

Stupid. Really stupid. That gesture is just rude. But it doesn't cause any tangible damage.

Really concerned at how there seems to be no end in sight to the amount of stupid bullshit the government is in the business of policing. Deal with your own fucking problems, people. Jesus christ.


How is it any different than someone saying, "I'm going to kill you" when they're walking by and there's a pre-existing history of bad blood between the two people

But, again, the court found the cop felt threatened and feared for her life


Couldnt you literally file charges against anyone for doing anything by this logic? The way he was walking made me fear for my life. The way she glanced at me made me fear for my life. The way he chewed his food made me fear for my life.

Finger guns used to be illegal. They still are, but they used to be, too.

Personally, I am against it even being a chargeable crime to threaten somebody. And that is not because I like the behavior but because I think we shouldn't set a precedent where people who are planning to kill somebody are discouraged from stating their intentions. It would save a lot of lives.

You realize if threats weren't illegal, the police would have even less recourse in intervening in a potentially escalating situation, right? If they can't arrest somone for threatening someone, they can't detain them and ensure it doesn't escalate into violence.

But how long does it take before police arrive? Enough time to follow through with the threat. And also, it is possible for police officers to watch over somebody if they think they are in danger. They don't always have to arrest people and charge them with crimes. They can change, and they should.


So how does making threats legal speed up police response time?

I just though and dug through my memory and i cant think of a single time ive seen thee gesture used in a threatning manner.

Also ocelot would be fucked if it werent for I dont think any cop could arrest the man unless he let em. And if he let em its probably all part of some bigger plan.
