It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

So it's like... there's kind of something here? That probably was the first time that cop had ever seen someone on fire, and when we find ourselves face to face with completely new experiences, we tend to fall back on instinct or training. And the training that the cop fell back on was drawing his weapon and threatening the man who was on fire, so that tells you a little bit about cops (that we knew already). I also wouldn't be surprised if that cop needs therapy after seeing that shit up close and in person.
maybe he thought firearms are for fighting fire
Hopefully he needs therapy and hopefully that therapy will lead him to finding a new line of work
