9 cameras telling the truth.
Here's additional footage of the citations given to Kevin Finley by now-former Winter Springs (Florida) police officer, Erik Schwartz, as detailed in the long-form video "@Tesla Saves Owner From Prison" ( linked below) 👇🏼
Twilight was such a creepy movie. A 117-year-old man seduces a 17-year-old. I don't care how young he looked. he was old AF
Looks a lot like the San Francisco Armory.
Tonight, Cardiff Castle will light up green to mark Dwarfism Awareness Day. 💚
The illumination celebrates diversity and helps raise awareness and understanding of dwarfism. orlo.uk/S4Qel

At work, our IT team is celebrating Cybersecurity Awareness Month. I keep reporting all of their emails as phishing to establish dominance.
They are well protected by people who know basic weapons safety and advanced tactics. @wittmer341_ and I are both skilled and are friends outside of X. Both combat veterans too.
I sleep very comfortably with 2 firearms within reach, none of which I would put my finger inside the trigger guard unless I were intending to fire.
I'm starting to realize that a lot of people on X from the United Kingdom do not understand how unhinged we are in the US. We don't just talk shit; we back it up with extreme violence.
Shit bro, most of the people I saw that were angry were police officers. Now we know they they don't let you carry firearms. You'd have 5 accidental shootings a day. You wouldn't have time to arrest people for speech violations.
The Commissioner appeared on @BBCPM this evening to reiterate his condemnation of those who have directed awful abuse at our Muslim colleague after she received a national policing award yesterday.
Sir Mark shared his concerns about how common such behaviour has become.

They left out the part about him being unattended and found floating in a family pool.
The mother of a toddler found alive in an Arizona hospital morgue more than five hours after being pronounced dead tells NBC News she thought she heard him breathing as she hugged him goodbye, but instead of listening to her gut, she believed the doctor. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ari…
Just hand him over to the Marines. Problem solved. Make sure to give them a sledgehammer.
What an absolute POS!!
🚨BREAKING NEWS:Prince William County police say officers arrested Miguel Alonso Maldonado Soriano, 27, of Stafford, late Wednesday night after finding him actively damaging the Iwo Jima statue near Richmond Highway and Fuller Road in Quantico with a sledgehammer.
Police say the damage includes the removal of one of the depicted soldier’s heads and is estimated in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. He is charged with felony destruction of property, trespass with intent to damage property, and felony injury to a monument, and is held without bond.
"Oh we use safety devices". How about not putting a firearm in the hands of an untrained person or better yet, she has been trained at some point in time.
“Oh f**k, finger on the trigger!” 🙄 Two can make that mistake.
For those rushing to condemn @metpoliceuk and declare standards are slipping, perhaps a little context wouldn’t go amiss.
When an officer who is not firearms-trained handles a firearm at an event, whether a public or internal open day, a highly visible safety inhibitor is fitted to the weapon. The same applies when members of the public are invited to handle a similar @metpoliceuk firearm.
But why let a little knowledge of firearms safety get in the way of a good old social media outrage session? 🤦♂️
I do wonder, though, whether it’s really just the finger on the trigger that’s prompted this pile-on… or whether some people were simply looking for an excuse.
He’s trying to make it race and gender related. It’s actually about safe weapons handling.
Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley has responded to the unacceptable online abuse directed at a Met officer who received an award at yesterday's annual Police Federation Conference.
PC Fiona Shaik Umar was recognised for the outstanding contribution she has made for women in policing.
ALT I\u2019d like to congratulate Fiona on this well-deserved award for which she should rightly be very proud. She works in the Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Command, a frontline unit playing a vital role in the mission to protect our democracy by keeping Parliament and Parliamentarians safe.\u00A0 \u000B\u000BWe are currently advertising for additional talented, brave Londoners from all communities to join us. Every career path is open to you regardless of whether you happen to wear a kippa, turban or hijab like Fiona. She is being celebrated for being an excellent officer demonstrating this reality. \u000B\u000BBut it angers me that not for the first time, a day that should have been a celebration for Fiona was marred by hateful, intolerant abuse online. \u000B\u000BThese people haven\u2019t met Fiona. They know nothing of her important work. They just saw that she is a female Muslim officer who wears a hijab and decided she wasn\u2019t deserving as a result.\u00A0 \n
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The vast majority of criticism was not because she is Muslim, but because she was not following very basic gun safety rules.
Her finger was on the trigger and she pointed the barrel of the gun at a fellow officer.

This is the type of behavior people are talking about. The inability to control your emotions and think it's ok to shoot someone. Just put him in prison before he kills someone else because he felt disrespected.
Ex-#Titans DT Jordan Elliott went to his car to retrieve his gun after a practice altercation with OT JC Latham last Thursday (Oct. 15).
After being told to leave the field, Elliott took off his pads and stormed out of the facility, then went to the players' lot. Security cameras captured the sequence. Veteran DL John Franklin-Myers talked him down, and no one was hurt.
The Titans released Elliott on Tuesday after reviewing the incident. He signed a 2-year, $8M deal this offseason.
News of the incident was first reported by @eastonfreeze and additional details provided by @AaronWilson_NFL.
