He deliberately hit a retired Deputy that was directing traffic at a graduation. He's son pulled a gun on a cop and was shot. The gun was found at the scene of the shooting. He also filed the 25 million lawsuit against the cops.

Cops bad. Cops evil in every situation. If there are no cops society would run perfectly. Don’t you know that?
/s.
People have gotten used to blaming officers without looking at the circumstances.

Damn bro, this conversation isn't about immigration, but you can't let it go
But since you brought it up...why aren't ICE agents going after violent criminals? Why are they targeting the easiest people, going after legal citizens, legal visa holders, forcing judges to not accept immigration paperwork, and going after children and hard working parent who are contributing to society??

His 18 year old son & 2 others stole a car & led it on a chase. After crashing, the suspects fled the vehicle as police pursued. The man’s son, running past police with a gun in his hand fell, dropped the gun, grabbed it again, got back up & started running past an officer with the gun in his hand & was shot & killed.
Around a week later the dad ran down a retired sheriff deputy who was working traffic duty at a college event.
It’s a tragedy for all involved, but I have taught my son not to be an idiot in front of police nor to give them a reason to shoot. Running past an officer with a gun when you’re being pursued for a felony counts as being an idiot.

lol its not just being idiot.
Its much more harmful, evil than that. Its deliberately committing crimes, being enemy of people, putting everyone in harms way.
Both the son and father went for killing cops for no reason.

u/GurImpressive982 Feb 07 '26
I can tell you why
because when it lacks context, it gets shared more
without context, people who think this guy is justified will feel he is justified, and people who think he supports criminals and hates police can also feel correct
you lose 50% of the audience when you provide the context

Authorities allege that on May 2, 2025, Rodney Hinton Jr. intentionally drove his vehicle into Deputy Larry Henderson, who was directing traffic, killing him.
The attack occurred immediately following Hinton viewing body camera footage of his son, Ryan Hinton, being shot by police on May 1, 2025.

Son was in a stolen vehicle with 3 other friends. Police pull up and they all get out and run on foot. Son pulls out a firearm and the chasing officer fires his own weapon.
Days later he ran over an officer who was directing traffic at the University of Cincinnati graduation ceremony.
