A police officer recently got scared by a falling acorn thinking it was a gunshot. He then mag dumped dozens of rounds into his own squad car thinking it was the man he had in custody (handcuffed, searched for weapons already, and trapped inside).

Luckily he struck with police precision. Meaning he missed every single shot and the guy was unharmed physically. Now he quit his job due to public ridicule.

This meme jokes by extending the conspiracy theories around Taylor swift to include dropping the acorn.

I mean I don’t expect anything to change, but maybe give people some actual training and gun safety lessons before handing them weapons.

He also shouted “I’m hit!” Apparently not knowing the difference between being shot and, err, not being shot.

Ok this sounds like he knows exactly what he was doing. He knew that he could get away with it when he’s claiming to be shot at. Like the southpark episode where they hunt bears and shout “he is coming right at you!” so they can legally shoot them.
