I have a 20 year old civic that I have done nothing to other than oil change/air filter and brakes on (its my kid's car now). Sure the interior is falling apart, but it probably has at least another 100k left mechanically.

So 2 people are referenced in the article by name and Google has what, almost 200k employees?

It was just disclosed, be patient. A PHP RCE is no joke.

> Think of the children!

Very familiar; nothing of substance.

> Everything I don't like should be banned.

Ah yes, so reasonable. You remind me of the alcohol and marijuana prohibitionists. Tell me, how are your bans implemented? Do jack-booted thugs enforce said laws and throw people in cages, or does it somehow magically just... happen?

this would be the real travesty

Details matter, and details like "he pulled out a gun" are not inconsequential.

I assumed everyone also read the article if they're commenting on it, but I fail to see what additional that context that adds; I can't imagine he was pulling it out because it was time to oil it. Police were responding to an active shooter call, and this guy pulled out a gun.

It is factually accurate that he pulled out a weapon when police were responding to an active shooter call.

Good to see HN has changed their tune on gun ownership and defense. Until we see bodycam footage we're all basing our opinions entirely on what his lawyer is saying. Video will come out with a FOIA, but everyone will have moved on.

It explicitly said in the article that he pulled out a gun. He shouldn't have been swatted, obviously. That said, if you pull out a gun when police are responding to what they believe is an active shooter, the chances of you being shot are extremely high.

Additionally consider what would have happened if this had been an active shooting and they simply disregarded the phone call.

And yet our state is still the fourth-largest economy in the world.
