At least one suspected attacker was shot dead in front of a barricaded home after a three-hour standoff in North Carolina.

He said it was the worst attack on police officers he could recall in his 30 years on the force.
First time I’ve seen this meme used optimistically.
I know it’s just cop-speak but framing the perps as “attackers” when they were barricaded in the house is pretty ridiculous.

Looks like it’s 4 dead cops, one U.S. Marshal and three local police officers.
1 US Marshal, 1 CMPD, and 2 NC “Department of Adult Corrections” officers who were working with the US Marshal.
The CMPD pig died later in the hospital, the other three I think died on scene.
If prison is so horrible that killing four people (although they’re pigs), well knowing that the remaining pigs will execute you on the spot in retaliation, is a better option than going there then there’s something really fucked up about prison.
To the extent people should be sent to prison in the first place it shouldn’t be the torture cages of America but rather gulags centered on re-education and rehabilitation.

I saw that. They kept removing comments saying “we don’t wish death on people here”. They don’t those fucks just stay on reddit at that point?

Why is it so tiny?
There used to be a bug where it would display some html next to the emote. It’s since been fixed but the original bug has been preserved in a new dedicated emote.
Yeah, but the emote is so tiny I can barely read the HTML.
Do the emotes have a width limit maybe?
uncapped height, limited width. renders at 60px width IIRC

I would have simply kept walking and not attempt to break into the bunker-house, but that’s just me.
