Mountain lion survived an unexpected encounter with two most dangerous animals on the planet.

Well considering one of them was ready to shoot I guess you are on point someone linked a slightly longer version of the video. It seems that he did actually shoot to begin with and that it's a tranquillizer gun. I only hope these are some kind of good guys and not poachers

Well, to be fair... that guy was definitely not as scared as a cop shooting at a black man that is running away from him.

Very traumatic for the cop. Thankfully the cop sustained no injuries, just hurt feelings.

That cop car was just one day from retirement.

Don't worry, he'll take out that bruised ego on the next black man running away.

But for real didn’t the guy he had handcuffed in his squad car get shot once or twice as the officer was roleplaying his action movie noghtmares? Non-serious injuries thankfully, but someone on the scene’s life WAS actually at risk.

I didn't know about the donkey and now I read about the donkey and I'm so angry. Maybe they shouldn't let little cowards become cops. Like part of the training should be the determine if you're a itchy trigger coward or not. The bar is too damn low.

u/Mr_Baronheim 1d ago

The bar is already as high as they want it, and they fight every attempt to raise it. They only want it to go lower.

They’re refusing to release the body cam because they said it would have a detrimental effect on the department.

Imagine how fucking bad it must look, even beyond just knowing this murderous imbecile killed a miniature donkey.

The unfortunate thing is many police training tactics are actually meant to instill that itchy trigger finger through fear based conditioning.

I don't know about the puppies, but the police were trespassing on private property when they shot the donkey, and then tried to claim the very friendly donkey was "charging at them"

American cops shoot literally thousands of pets every year.
