> How can you think it's a "game'?
Everything seems fueled by social media radicalisation, and the social media side of things is very much 'gameified', all about scoring likes/upvotes/followers (and earning real revenue) for pushing escalating outrage.
- awesome_dude 9mo agoWhich is VERY different to the discussion at hand.
- SV_BubbleTime 9mo agoIs it? Good’s wife after yelling DRIVE BABY, DRIVE DRIVE and the fallout screamed at agents “Why are you using real bullets!” These people seem to have thought it was a game.
- awesome_dude 9mo agoShe was unarmed when she was killed.
- bluescrn 9mo agoA vehicle can be just as deadly as a firearm. And vehicles had previously been used aggressively by the protestors. There were claims (no idea if true) that the agent who fired the fatal shots had been dragged down the road and injured in a previous vehicle-based altercation.
- awesome_dude 9mo agoIf him being previously injured affected his mental state such that he needed to kill someone who was not presenting an immediate threat to life, he should not have been on duty.

- awesome_dude 9mo agoNone of those things are an immediate threat to life. Spread your hate with someone else.
- SV_BubbleTime 9mo agoHitting someone with your car is an immediate threat to life. Stomp feet all you like, but she made all the bad decisions she could and seemed to think it was a game.
- awesome_dude 9mo agoIf anyone is wondering - yes I am stopping interacting with this individual who refuses to reply in good faith.
- SV_BubbleTime 9mo ago> Spread your hate with someone else. > I am stopping interacting with this individual who refuses to reply in good faith. Wild. I noticed that you didn’t dispute any of the facts about the incident, but will not relent on your incorrect claims of MURDER.
- SV_BubbleTime 9mo agoEvery police agency and training in the world will clearly explain that a vehicle is absolutely considered a weapon. A single rental truck in Nice France killed more people than any mass shooting in the USA, ever.
- awesome_dude 9mo agoShow me where the car was being used as a dangerous weapon.
- SV_BubbleTime 9mo agoWell… she accelerated in drive with a federal agent in front of the vehicle, while ignoring other federal agents to stop and get out of the vehicle, he THEN drew his gun from the holster, she the hit him with that car. Her mental state was clearly not peaceful or rational - while armed. If she had made better decisions she would be alive.
