Is a person on fire not a danger? What if they decided to immolate more than just themselves?
Thats never happened, has it?
No idea. I’m not a historian of self-immolation.
You wanna take that chance if you’re the officer on the scene? Seems to me having the gun up at the ready but not firing is what we’d want in a situation with a guy on fire because of protest and not having a clue what the fuck might be going on.
Maybe have an ounce of compassion, keep the guy alive and waterboard him later like how global powers used to do
How do you expect anyone but a fire rescue trained with equipment to help an immolated dude? You all lack empathy.
… Fire blankets exist, and putting out someone on fire is part of first aid courses edit also high school chemistry class
Standard duty stuff with foot patrol 🙄
The guy was collapsed and passed out mate. Stop trying to defend cops.
