Florida deputy Jesse Hernandez screamed “shots fired,” and frantically fired his gun after an acorn fell onto the roof of his squad car, making him jump.
Lul, that was a good suggestion. He ‘felt weird’, hid out of the acorn way (with some epic fat-rolling), still decided his car needed suppressive fire and get shot (maybe) multiple times (I guess fancy red-dot sights don’t improve skills like they show us in vidya games?). Just perfect.
But the cherry on top will be his inevitable medal, promotion, lifetime rent for emotional damage suffered, and a whole bunch of murders he will commit (after all, anyone could be hiding acorns, or perhaps would have at some point in the future, can’t take that chance).

Training solely with red dots is a detriment to your skills, at least. A red dot can make even the most inexperienced bozos look like a sharpshooter at the range, but under stress the lack of “low-level” practice/skills would severely limit your gunmanship. That’s not to say to not practice with red dots, you should put a lot of time into the tools you’re likely to use and in a similar way to how you’re likely to use them, but it’s also important to practice a lot with iron sights and whatnot if you want to develop and maintain… actually good aim. A lot of people tend to not do that, though, because fancy sights make shooting practice targets easy and can make you feel like you’re way better than you actually are.
Red dots are a performance enhancer for someone who is trained, not a substitute for training in and of themselves.
Anecdotally, people who are not trained to the point of second nature tend to forget about their sights, especially on pistols, during a shootout.
While the cop’s failure of aiming ended up being an overall positive against the rest of his incompetence, it still highlights incompetence strictly within the realm of shooting.
Even better, watch the video without any sort of narration or commentary.

He resigned.
For real or for like two weeks or like went to cop elsewhere?
(Legit question, I don’t know things, but see posts about this sort of stuff)

Link?
arguably the best scene.
I think 1 roll and his stamina bar dropped zero.
The video is in a tweet which is embedded in the article, because of course it is. I’m not gonna link that, but it’s hilarious.
Edit: Found a youtube link posted way down in the comments:

holy fuck lmao. Dude does a triple roll and does he actually yell “I’m hit” between 25 and 30 seconds or am I hearing it wrong?
