    More accurate title would be:

    Officer turns and shoots Australian reporter covering Los Angeles immigration protests with rubber bullet on live TV.

      Still missing the word “intentionally” or “deliberately”.

      It’s a potent mix we’re brewing: lack of education, ever hotter temperatures and writing headlines quickly on the phone on the go in a heated protest. Three things that guarantee even better Lemmy and other social media posts titles in the future.

      We either have headlines that are over the top clickbait or serious shit like this “she accidentally got hit by a rubber bullet”, where you only have to watch a 5 second video to understand how to improve the headline.

    My middle school English teacher would have failed me for the overuse of passive voice like this.

    Wouldn’t say this is “boring” in the dull sense, definitely is dystopian though

    That dumbass cop literally turned on a single brain cell he has under that helmet, aimed at reporter and fired. What the fuck was his thought process there?

      What’s the thought of one cell thinking?

      If there are no neurons firing, does it masks a thoigh?

        I guess it’s a binary process. Do nothing or shoot reporter. When it was inactive he did nothing. When brain cell activated, he immediately fired.
