Video shows Florida deputy repeatedly shoot at man after thinking falling acorn was gunfire



The cop shot at a handcuffed man in a patrol car who they had already searched and found to be unarmed...because he thought a single falling acorn was gunfire.

Thank God the suspect wasn't killed.

It was a horrible mistake, no doubt, and the cop resigned before being fired. Will probably face some sort of charges.
So in your way of thinking that one instance makes all American cops stupid?

There are many MANY bad cops in the USA. Shoot first and ask questions later when it's to late. This pos and his supposed partner should be in prison for life for this asinine bs. That's USA policing at it's best; worse than worthless. "a falling acorn" omG.

A cop shot a man because she thought he broke into her apartment...when she accidentally walked into his.

Cop kills man thinking her gun was a taser, even though tasers look, feel and fire differently.

Cop pulls gun on man for stealing candy....when surveillance footage showed the man paid for it.

Maybe U.S. cops aren't dumb but you can certainly make a case for it.

Yes. American cops are stupid.
But so are American voters, Americans who don’t vote, American sports people and Americans who don’t sport.

I can only presume there’s something in the water.

Yeah. This was tragic. And infuriating. If I remember correctly, the cop gave the man something like 28 different commands in 30 seconds and threatened to kill him if they weren't followed.

Why not ask the guy to turn around and crawl backwards to you? That looked like a movie or something except it was CNN. Shame policeman walked away free after butchering someone like that.

In fact this sounds like a generalization.

Of course German cops are much more relaxed, since guns are not so widely dsitrubetd in germany. And we have less murder, less detah by police and less stress to the police.

Life would be terrible. Doesn't change the fact that too many are stupid.

What's the fun in armed police beating down or killing civilians? Why don't we see Canadian Mounties, Australian Police, japan Police etc starring on youtube regularly?
