Cops Can’t Differentiate Gun From Taser? We Can’t Differentiate Cop From Mass Shooter

Ok sure, one is paid and the other is a volunteer.

BROOKLYN CENTER, MN- With Americans experiencing a series of horrific tragedies one after the other, it’s getting hard for us to tell the difference between a police officer and a mass shooter. The recent senseless shooting of 20-year old Daunte Wright because Kim Potter, a 26-year police veteran, mistook her gun for a taser has left us confused as to which guy with a gun is the real bad guy. From where I’m standing, they appear to be exactly the same. Sure, one is paid to senselessly kill people while the other is a volunteer. However, once you take away the uniform and badge, you have the same trigger-happy racist white person that solves their inner turmoil by shooting unarmed people. At this point a police uniform is essentially drag for folks who want to be above the law. It’s permission to shoot Americans they don’t like, and maybe be held accountable if there is video evidence – and if they don’t tamper with it first. But it’s okay – all the nice white people in Congress are saying this country doesn’t have a gun problem, so you’ve got nothing to worry about!
