      I just want to say that I understand the reference for this and for anyone wondering there was a video of a cop who thought an acorn falling on a car roof was a gunshot and he immediately empties an entire magazine into a car while wildly combat rolling like a terrified toddler.

      The body cam footage would be hilarious if it wasn’t so fucking terrifying.

        And yelling “I’m hit! I’m hit!” at his partner, who then also shot at the vehicle.

        Oh and “the car” was a squad car after detaining an individual. Both officers dump their mag, but, yeah, acorn cop started it. Guy won a ton of money, rightfully. Lucky he didn’t die.
