Poor guy was probably just trying to sleep without freezing to death and then these assholes show up.

    They shoulda warned the campers that they were coming through so it was understood people would be in mortal danger from machines that can’t see them covered up.

      Can public authorities in the US kill people without consequence as long as they issued a warning? Like the “freeze or I’ll shoot” from the movies? (asking from the other side of the Atlantic)

        Sort of. Cops aren’t supposed to shoot people unless they are threatening someone’s safety, but practically they can get away with it in most circumstances quite easily because their judgement is assumed to be correct unless proven false.

        You aren’t supposed to bulldoze people. Full stop.
