Damn off duty cops are crazy. Totally escalated the situation. The guy was only the gardener and there to trim the hedges.

was that the issue? lol in America you'll get shot man

He should just let the chainsaw wielding maniac continue?

Every event a possible shooting, hell even if you leave your house, or don't.

24,849 homicide victims in the USA 2022 and 27,494 in South Africa in the year to Feb 2023, a per capita rate that's 7 times higher but also absolutely higher.

There have been 90 emergencies declared in the US since 1917. 8 have been declared by the Trump admin since January.

stats are not making sense when you think about it

The stats are real, they're just not that shocking in a country of 350m people, but they *sound* bad.
