You just know people are protesting for sport at this point. If only people still had lives holy shit.

Just pick someone who lost the fight and then we march for that "hero"

March for Garret Foster, when?

bring guns, yay or nay?

I still hold onto the belief that people were so bored being locked inside for a few months that they just kinda broke and started breaking shit

I have the same theory too. I guess we're supposed to get some more NEETbux next month? Once people will be forced to go to work to pay bills things will die down but right now people got nothing to do.

here's an idea: you don't get any more neetbux if you've been arrested at a protest this year

whoever controls the tendies will control the streets

Make is so. Good deal.

This is exactly why we need to throw more money on the fire. Let it all burn through like a controlled forest fire.

Are these places still locked down? My state afaik is completely open aside from maybe bank lobbies or some federal buildings.

It's kinda funny, red and blue agendaposters aren't exactly sure what happened, but they are sure the other side is both wrong and trying to gaslight them

Balkanization when?

Happens at a lot of protests on divisive issues. And the media isn't exactly helping by stoking the fire.

Balkanization when?

I know you're trolling, but the fact that some idiots actually hope for this is truly baffling to me.

Balkanization when?

US was balkanized the moment it gained independence.

It's just that people today - for some reason- scoff at casual slavery and rape by the Founders.

Zzz

Agreed. I spit on my grandpas pic everyday since he probably didn't know anything about Queer Theory and anti-racism. The era you live in is not an excuse for ignorance and it's not my job to educate his ghost.

I’m not scoffing at it I just think it was funny.

Drama mods removed my post yesterday covering this. I guess the weekend crew has thinner skin than the weekday crew.

well weekday mods are more obese, so yes

the weekday mod

Lawlz once again in shambles

Tbh, Lawlz and Ann are the only good jannies.

The rest range from boring to SRD tier smugposting

#stanforann

Anyone remember when ann randomly booted the other mods here and they went crying to admins to keep their "jobs"?

Lol I still remember them acting like their little insurrection wasn't actually the most pathetic thing to ever happen in this sub.

i tried to forget

Ann I get, he's basically the libertarian choice and there is clearly a pedo infestation here, but you put fucking Lawlz above Snally?

Lawlz is both entertaining and self aware.

Snally's just a generic wine mommy who thinks she's hot shit. If I wanted a jannie like that I'd ask my aunt.

I got something for you.

REPENT for worshipping a mayo f*id over Caliph Tariq first of his name or I shall give you a taste of my shoe

Imagine not being around long enough to remember tayposting

Platyposting was better.

Imagine not being around long enough to remember tayposting

Nah I remember DistortedLines pajeet ass posting Tay, fuck knows how many alts ago.

It was trying too hard then and it's trying too hard now

How old is snally now?

i'm sure her eggs are in a museum

I put Lawlz above God tbh.

Pedos? Where?

Spreading misinformation is the motto on this sub sweaty

CHOO CHOO

It's how they cope that they have no weekend plans.

did move toward the car like many others, because a fucking car drove into a crowd of people.

Of course when a car is driving through a crowd you should go TOWARDS it, good thinking.

It's unbelievable the positions these people twist themselves into in order to justify anything their side does. They want unarmed crisis prevention workers to deescalate every situation a police officer would normally handle BUT they think when a car idles through a mob that are taking over the street the only way to handle it is to surround the car and give them no other option but to react violently.

but the muzzle is down and his elbow is up but his forearm is down.

Yeah but he is pointing it at someone sitting in a car, he's standing over them with a raised AK.

why the weird collage of pictures?

It's called proof.

the positions these people twist themselves into

I can't decide which lefty meme is my favorite right now:

• Foster saying "they wont let us protest in the streets anymore" as he is literally standing in the street protesting (and is later killed for it)

• "The car aggressively drove into the crowd" ...you know, the crowd which was blocking the street, and then attacked the car when it stopped.

• Bonus from portland: "we are just trying to march peacefully and Trump keeps putting this building right in front of us!"

There was one person running towards the car (bottom right of the video) that looked like it was the first time they've ever ran. Bottom tier antifa super soldier cadet.

The swarm always looks so awkward. They surround the car, and there's this moment where you can tell not a single one of them had a plan. With dozens of people screaming over each other, and slapping the roof, it looks they're all trying to sell the same car. Then an absolute genius will try the door, and lives are defined.

Nah they saw a dent on the roof and were trying to fix it bro.

1350ers don't own legal firearms. You can almost be positive that gun is stolen.

I never follow KIA drama, I didn't realize they were so candid.

I'd contest this, but the only black dude at my old high school got arrested for keeping a glock in the glove compartment.

Did he at least give you a pass?

You can literally hear the 5 AK shots in the video before you hear 3 handgun shots. I swear these people are either willfully lying because "other side bad" or just haven't seen the video.

That’s what I thought too but apparently the first 5 shots were from the driver and the other 3 were from another protestor:

https://dfw.cbslocal.com/2020/07/26/armed-protester-shot-killed-driver-austin-identified-garrett-foster-shooter-released-custody/

Manley said the driver and several witnesses told police Foster approached the driver side window of the vehicle and pointed an assault rifle at the driver.

The driver said they shot Foster and drove off, police said.

The second round of shots was fired by protesters who witnessed the shooting, Manley said. The shooter fired at the car while it drove away. That person was also taken into custody but later released, Manley said.

Yeah you're right. What kind of fucking handgun did the driver have because those shots were insanely loud compared to the second round of shots.

I haven't heard audio because I'm supposed to be working, but I can tell you an ak has a very distinct sound. A deep, dirty smack, but not as loud as you'd think. The smaller caliber ar15, for comparison, makes an unearthly racket. 9 mil autos have a high pitched pap sound that echoes well. Depending on the conditions, the smaller round can sound louder, especially through a recording device.

The sound from the first shot is way louder than the last 3 and sounds a lot like an AK. Very surprised to hear it’s the other way round.

Plus from in a car, wouldn’t the pistol sound quieter anyways?

There’s really no good way to figure out which report came from what firearm. The microphone on the camera auto gates if the decibels are too high.

There's only a 5 db difference between 9mm and 7.62 rounds, but I'm sure that's more than enough evidence for autistic internet detectives to work with.

I'll wait for the ex weekendgunnit lads to get on the case.

edit: thank u autists for heeding my call o7

Every 3 or so dB means a sound is twice as loud. Not that it matters here, there's no way some shitty mic can accurately capture gunshots anyway

Breathing is around 10 and rustling leaves is around 20, not that big of a difference. A police siren is around 120 and a jet engine is around 130, that's a huge difference.

3 decibels at the top end of the spectrum is quite a different.

What the fuck are you trying to say, retard

It's a logarithmic scale dumbfuck

How is that not what I said initially?

I don't read what anybody says I'm just here to fling shit

faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrtttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

shut up

but I can't hold it in much longer

ah here it comes

ffffaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrraararaararaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrtttttttt

No worries pal, I'll break it down barney style for you:

Little sounds quiet, big sounds loud.

Little sounds big difference on decible scale, big sounds small difference on decible scale.

You already said logarithmic.

logarithmic

Dunno that word nerd.

Is this all you got for show and tell?

Yes

From link 3:

why the weird collage of pictures?

Weird collages of pictures is usually how right wing propaganda looks.

What right wing propaganda looks like

I miss pinging so much.

If you have any street self-awareness you know this guy is in the last stages of some type of crazy.

It's in the beady, dilated possum eyes, and the way he smiles.

He was in the last stages of everything

There’s a picture of him aiming his rifle at the car. Pretty clear what happened.

Austin’s police chief, Brian Manley, told reporters on Sunday that as the motorist turned, a crowd of protesters surrounded the vehicle, and some struck the car. The driver, whose name has not been released, then opened fire from inside the car as Mr. Foster approached. Another person in the crowd pulled out a handgun and shot at the vehicle as it sped away.

Minutes after the shooting, the driver called 911 and said he had been involved in a shooting and had driven away from the scene, Chief Manley said. The caller told dispatchers he had shot someone who had approached the driver’s window and pointed a rifle at him.

“His account is that Mr. Foster pointed the weapon directly at him and he fired his handgun at Mr. Foster,” the chief said of the driver.

Both the driver and the other person who fired a weapon were detained and interviewed by detectives. Both had state-issued handgun licenses and have been released as the investigation continues, Chief Manley said

Some details from APD. Seems like a ton of misinformation is bouncing around these threads.

What a fucking moron. Welcome to Texas Foster, people have shot others for less and gotten away with it.

Be Burger 🍔 ....

Get shot 🔫

Is there anything more 🇺🇸 🦅 patriotic 🦅 🇺🇸 than this?

Everyone involved is an idoit

if you bring a gun anywhere you are ipso facto accepting that you might be shot

if you bring a gun anywhere in America you are ipso facto accepting that you might be shot

This amazing /r/drama because it breaks everyone's brains. Guncels, anti-guncels, protesters, bootlickers all forced to CHOOSE something uncomfortable.

The reality is that mayos have not only taken over the blm protests in the mayoist cities in America (Portland, Austin, Seattle), but they've made it completely about them.

This guy pushed around a quad amputee black pet to get woke points. Do these people not know that CHAZ already jumped the fuckin shark?

What’s the uncomfortable choice for guncels? He fucked around and found out, the two shooters had licenses and were released, there’s one less subhuman Austinite scum wasting precious oxygen, and idiot protestors are seething that they can’t violently surround a car with no consequences. Where’s the problem?

Guncels have always used open carry as a protest against draconian gun laws. Now commies are using it and getting capped. They are absolutely uncertain how to feel.

As a guncel myself I’m just wondering if there’s something I’m missing because all this does is make me laugh even harder at these idiot protestors. They’re getting slotted because they’re being objectively unsafe and stupid when carrying, not because of open carry. Hell, haven’t they all been shot by people carrying concealed?

Most gun people I know are very “armed society is a polite society” so when someone acts impolite - as if their firearm gives them any power or authority whatsoever - and gets shot for it that’s the system working correctly.

Didn’t the video literally show the guy firing his ak into the car?

No.

Yeah the video doesn’t show shit sadly

didnt this guy literally jump on top of someone's car and shoot into the air?

No.

well that's gay if i was a gay with a paraplegic black girlfriend i would have

God it’s fucking funny that he was talking shit about people not having the balls to do anything then gets shot like the same week (day?). It’s some nice JUICY irony 😆😆

Oh ya man, he definitely deserved that shit. Commies like him are traitors to America, or should I say “were”. LOL!

God that sounded almost sarcastic. Are you a genuine rightoid? 🤢

I’m a genuine American my friend. Doesn’t matter which side of the political aisle you fall in, Communists are the scum of the earth and a bunch of genocidal assholes.

Communism is based because every attempt has killed millions if commies

Oh shit.

Doesn’t video show the rioter shooting first tho

No.

Best riot night this season.

Wonder how the producers will top this?

If you drive a car into a riot then it's your fault whatever happens next.

Sure. But pull a gun on someone then it’s your fault what happens next. JUSTIFIED! I’m glad that commie got smoked bro LOL.

I’m so glad that piece of commie garbage got smoked! What a literal fucking loser LOL. Ironic since he called those who disagree with his beliefs “pussies”. Commies get the bullet just as Nazi’s do in America!

Funny, driver is basically bizarro ahmaud arbery. Guy randomly approaches him with a gun but this Austinian ahmaud was packing heat and cut him off at the pass.
