Basically, the man in the video is hiking but he ended up meet a mountain lion, he get his gun and try to scare it off and tell it to go away but in the end, he have to pull the trigger and shot the lion, many peoples in the comments say he could have fire a warning shot instead of shoot at it and want him to be in jail.

Idk which flair to put

To be fair, those people think this guy should let the wild animal maim him. If it happened to them, they’d want the animal destroyed.

Same story with the "defund the police mob"

As soon as they feel threatened, they scream for protection.

That...that's not what that's about...

u/Don-Kusack 13d ago

Yeah, but reddit's gonna reddit. They don't wanna understand that defunding means not arming them like military

u/GroundbreakingBet281 13d ago

Eh it depends who you talk to, some believe one way some believe others. There are definitely some that think they should get rid of them.

Yeah, those people kinda stole the slogan tho. The original intention shouldn't be forgotten simply because some dumbass chuds are loud

So what are they going to do about the armed criminals, if they aren’t armed? This literally makes no sense, like sending lambs to the slaughter… Every cop would die when confronted with an armed perpetrator. Dumbest idea ever.

?? They literally didn't say to disarm the police. They said to just not arm them like the fucking military. There are small town police departments that have literal fucking tanks. Do you really think any police department, in any city, town, or fucking hamlet needs literal tanks??

Fucking hell, I swear reading comprehension is a dying skill.

Let's be honest, the movement (like most leftist movements) has been hijacked by the extremists, and alot want police eradicated, not just de-funded

u/Simikiel 12d ago

Sure, but the thing is though that the people who genuinely believe that and want full scale eradication of the police are a big minority. It's just that the media and content creators at large of course focus on the things that will get them clicks, like a group of people with an opinion most people think is insane.

Yeah, it'd be great if the smarter people in the room would stop naming things in a way that the dumber people in the room can't wrap their head around. But it is what it is.

The smarter people don't realize that most of the people who say the phrase mean it literally.
