Good guy being nice to coffee shop workers. Smiling and saying thank you. Removing problems from the world. A true American Hero.

[–] andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works 31 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Just look at that Hollywood smile. Is it a classic superhero movie with a modern twist? I bet he took some cats from the trees when dropping his bike in the park.

He totally helped some old lady with her groceries on the way to liberate humanity.

I swear to God this is like the 10th post I've seen of this guy's face and not ONE is serious about tracking the killer. I fucking love it.

[–] drcobaltjedi@programming.dev 124 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Remember, if you know anything about this guy, NO YOU FUCKING DON'T.

Idk I hear he’s already in Perth

[–] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago

I heard he rode a weather balloon to the ISS. There's no extradition agreement in space.

How do we even know that's the killer? The person who shot was wearing a mask. For all we know it wasn't even a man, some women are flat chested it's possible. They should probably just call off the investigation since there's no clues for anything.

[–] aphlamingphoenix@lemm.ee 18 points 5 months ago

I think any cop who disagrees with this should get transvestigated.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago

Isn’t he wearing different clothes in the pics where his face is visible? And the cops are saying he changed clothes? Which could be true, but also could not be true…

Has anyone questioned Guy Fawks yet?

[–] jonne 87 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 24 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Fawkes was a religious fanatic who sought to blow up the English Parliament to replace it with a theocracy, so as an actual historical figure, he’s not much of a progressive role model.

And here I was feeling bad for confiscating beer from 14 year olds at summer camp at 17 and then drinking it (drinking age 16).

Is spamming this number illegal?

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 32 points 5 months ago

I wouldn't recommend making a pest of yourself to the police, in any jurisdiction.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 15 points 5 months ago

Probably not if you’re a scammer in India.

The ideal number of interactions with a cartel member is zero.

This is a perfect use of AI. Flood the internet with variations of the original image.

Call that number and every tipline and report the person responsible for this death and many others - That person's name was Brian Thompson.

Is that real? Why would dude take his mask off?

[–] sus@programming.dev 59 points 5 months ago (3 children)

It's "real" in that the police shared the picture: https://x.com/NYPDnews/status/1864706407985221974

though the clothing seems different from an earlier picture, especially with this one having big front pockets in the jacket. so there's claims that it is not the same suspect.

[–] Milk_Sheikh@lemm.ee 26 points 5 months ago

I’m no lawyer, but the legal system calls this “reasonable doubt” and if you are on a jury, you are duty bound to do your best to judge the case on the facts, not vibes.

And the fact is, a grainy photo of two people who may have somewhat similar clothing is not proof, nor mens rea required for a possible murder conviction - who are we to claim to understand the mind of this individual?

The state has a high bar to clear that this anonymous shopper, is the same person they claim, the photo was taken on the same day, that this photo isn’t a forgery/deepfake, that only one set of that particular clothing was ever sold- otherwise it’s hearsay and conjecture.

Here is a tip. Most people would be more likely to call the cops on someone shoplifting food to feed their children.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago (9 children)

Dude looks pretty young to have a healthcare beef. But what do I know about anyone’s life.

[–] ieatpillowtags@lemm.ee 32 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Maybe a family member? He’s old enough to see a grandparent have the quality of their last days stolen.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 18 points 5 months ago

Yeah, could be anyone. A partner, parent or grandparent, sibling, friend… Lots of ways healthcare could negatively affect anyone’s life.

My healthcare beefs started younger. By the time I graduated college I’d done more rounds than I’d bothered counting over pre approving the same meds I’d been on for years and if you remember those scary government death panels that they told us were why we can’t have single payer healthcare, well a corporate one killed my mom.

Like I’ve expressed that pain a fair bit in the past day and it’s not even that I think it was inexcusable for that decision to be made, but I’d spent years hearing about this nightmare scenario as a reason to keep a broken system only to find out that we already had it except without the ability to vote to change policies.

In America, on one of the worst days of your life, regardless of your age, a health insurer may very well be there to add some salt to the wound of your tragedy or to make you worry that your uncertainty of if you’ll live might make your family lose their house.
