What is with the framing of this story? A person has died and the headline is about a cop getting his ear grazed? Also the article dances around saying that it was another cop that shot the cop. Mmm copaganda

This is hardly unusual. “Police sieze 50 firearms and firearm parts”
Picture is 6 Gel blasters and random springs/doodads that could potentially be used as part of a firearm. Sometimes there is a real but rusted out old .22lr farm gun from the 1960s.
The subtext is cops aren’t just out here executing people in the street for laughs. They are actually putting their lives on the line to keep our community safe. The ear is very close to brain which is allergic to bullets.
abc is approaching courier mail levels of trash
We can compare with the trump pic to see which one was actually hit.
I always wondered why the say drop the knife and pull a fire arm if he has a knife why not just taser him straight away instead of warning him over and over then they end up having to shot them there’s probably a good reason why they do it this way I just think if there’s risk and they have a knife they deserve to get tasered without warning to protect themselves
Someone lost their life 😔 who gives a fuck about his 👂
Mainstream media is propaganda

All stories are fabricated for a reason. It’s the media.
You’re right. It makes it sound like an innocent person was shot by someone, and they also shot at the cop. But what really happened is a mentally ill guy waving a knife was shot dead, and a cop was also nearly killed by friendly fire from another cop.
Quite the paradox.
A bad guy with a gun nearly created a good guy with a gun, which would have made him a good guy with a gun, whilst still being a bad guy with a gun.
Perhaps the offender would still be alive if he did what he was told and dropped the knife?
I know a Queensland cop who was executed during a routine performance of their duty. Nothing special about that day when they put on their shirt that morning. By lunchtime they were dead.
I’m not a bleeding heart, but a story about a police officer almost getting shot between the eyes whilst trying to do their job is not propaganda.
