And a moment that'll make you clinch so hard your spine might compress. >> I mean it this time. >> I mean, I would love to sit here and tell you that all this happened in Florida.

Back in 2016 in Dallas, there was a Black Lives Matter protest going on. A man by the name of Michael Xavier Johnson decided, well, he doesn't like how police are treating black people, so he took a gun and he killed five police officers. During this attack, he also injured nine other police officers. This was actually one of the deadliest days for law enforcement since 9/11. After a bunch of gunfights and over 200 shots being fired between the police and Johnson, they chased him into a library building and he positioned himself where the only way to get to him was down a long corridor. So, a fatal funnel. In order to save officers lives, they attached C4 to a bomb robot, drove it up to Johnson and blew him up. I made a shirt commemorating this incident over at Bunker Branding a couple of years ago. It's still up there. Point behind this story. Bomb robot smoked that guy. [ __ ] hilarious. I got to looking on eBay and found a military surplus bomb robot. That's what this is. >> I would like to play around with R2FU. >> Target spotted. [Laughter] >> Just your common robot in the UK right now. I've been playing with it on stream. I just wanted to show you guys. I got my own R2FU. On to shootings. First, let's be thankful Michigan just gave us a story so dumb, so funny, and so weirdly effective that it deserves its own Hall of Fame spot right next to the legendary Acorn Cop incident. We've got hostages. We've got cops with drones. And we have a 24 oz bottle of FGO Red Pop somehow being the most effective negotiator in the entire building. June 27th, 2025, Sagenol Township, Michigan. It's a normal Friday afternoon, and maybe you're just working at your local bank. You're looking forward for lunch, and you're looking even more forward to the weekend coming up. Maybe your paycheck's about to hit your bank account. It's going to be a great day. Then suddenly, a guy walks in with a gun and takes you and all your co-workers hostage and kicks off one of the dumbest highstakes hostage situations ever. Of course, SWAT shows up, negotiators show up. They all bring drones so they can get a look at this guy and figure out what's going on. At one point, a Michigan State Police officer comes up with a silly ass plan. It's so insane. It works. I mean, if it works, it works. They load up a drone and attach a bag to it. What's inside the bag? a 24 oz bottle of FGO Red Pop. If you've never had a FGO, you've probably never lived in a trailer before. It's basically what happens when you take cough syrup and dump a pound of sugar into it. >> And actually, it's bad for democracy. >> Well, somehow this bottle of FGO becomes the key to ending this deadly standoff. The drone comes in and starts lowering the FGO down to the suspect through a window. It's like getting snacks delivered from a futuristic vending machine or taking a shotgun and shooting one of those Amazon delivery drones. It's like ski shooting but with prizes. Here's where this story gets better, though. as the guy reaches for the FOGO because why would you not? He exposes himself through the building's glass windows. You know what snipers love? When you expose yourself through the building's glass windows, police spot him. Trooper takes the shot. Hostage rescued. Game over. Hostage comes out injured but alive and taken to the hospital. And somewhere in Michigan, I guarantee you there's a couple of SWAT teams placing a bulk order for FGO. It's probably the only thing that SWAT and insane clown posy fans have in common. But hey, it worked. Next up, I'm going to talk about a story that's so embarrassing and confusing. I was sure it came from California, but no, it turns out the UK is trying to compete. So imagine this. You're sitting in school. You're already bored out of your mind. Mostly because you got one of those health teachers that talks about drugs and alcohol like they've only ever seen a beer in their life. You know, they're not cool like us. And then suddenly it's a rave. A rave you really, really don't want to go to. Loud music blasting. The teacher chugging what looks like orange juice, but it smells like grandpa's nighttime drink. Next thing you know, the whole class is doing the Macarina like it's 1997 at a wedding reception. >> Macarina. That's exactly what happened in Wales. A teacher showed up to class hammered, guzzled booze from a water bottle, called the kids little shits, and flicked them off. Okay, this teacher's awesome. >> She is not wrong. >> I've seen bad teachers. I've seen lazy teachers. But this teacher kind of legendary. It didn't stop there, though. Students started getting a little rowdy because, you know, you turned health class into a rave. The teachers got in their faces, cussed them off, flicked them off even more, and basically cut a WWE promo to a bunch of 16-year-olds. And yes, all of this was caught on camera, mostly because in classic fashion, the teacher denied everything until the footage showed otherwise. And before any of you ask, the part about this story is I can't show you. Kids were involved in this. At the end of the day, the school ended up firing the teacher and they can never teach again. I just thought that was kind of funny and wanted to share it with you. It's news or something. Let's watch a shooting for today's death porn. I mean, for today's shooting video, let's head over to the bustling metropolis of Mon, Illinois. Where the is that? May 3rd, 2025. Officers get a call to the PV quick stop gas station for a guy casually waving around a machete at customers. It just be like that sometimes. Nothing says I need gas like a machete wielding suspect showing up to your gas pump. Deputies from the Mon County Sheriff's Office and an officer from Decatur Park PD pull up and they immediately realize, yep, this guy is not going to cooperate. >> You got lots of ways out, brother. This ain't the end, man. This just Come on now. We're in this thing together. Come on. Now, >> here's where it starts to get a little bit spicy. Of course, officers try to contain the scene. The suspect, a 38-year-old local machete enthusiast, decides he just wants to steal a cop car instead. [Music] >> He just stole a squad car. He just stole a squad. >> Now, I know what you're thinking. How the hell did this guy just jump into a running patrol car? Well, I don't know either. Reports don't say. But judging from the footage, it looks like in all the chaos of the officers trying to block traffic, talk to Machete Man, and keep people safe. Somebody forgot rule number one of squad car ownership. Don't leave your cop car running where a criminal can drive off with it. >> Dude, where's my car? >> Now we got a machete wielding, cop car stealing psychopath driving around with police trying to catch their own patrol car. But wait, it gets even more insane. successful [Music] warehouse. >> Damn. >> Our suspect doesn't exactly run very long because within moments he crashes the stolen patrol car into another patrol car. Let's take a look at that from the officer's point of view. Damn. >> 93. >> Now, as nasty as that hit was, this is the part where really is the fan because when the suspect steps out of the wrecked cruiser, he's no longer wielding a machete. That's right. He's holding a shotgun now. >> Yeah. Up on up. Dude looks totally deranged. Obviously, the moment that a suspect jumps out of a stolen police car, now with his shotgun, you've reached the shoot him before he can shoot you levels of justified force. And so, officers open fire. The suspect's taken down. Of course, not fatally, because the suspect can get shot 40 times and live. The cop gets shot in the pinky finger and dies instantly. That's life. >> Shots fired. Shots fired. Shots fired. Get down on the ground. >> Get down on the ground. >> Get on the ground. >> Get on the ground right now. >> On the ground. >> I got an officer. >> He's rushed to the hospital for treatment. The officer who was rammed during the attack was taken to the hospital also, but thankfully he was released the same day. >> Yeah, I'm fine. >> And as for our suspect, not only did he get a little bullet ouchie, he called six felonies. State's attorney said the officers are cleared. Of course, dude had a shotgun, stole cop car, and rammed a cop. At that point, he practically already handed the officers an invitation to shoot you. Deadly force was definitely authorized. But hey, what do you guys think? Do you think it was justified? Should have hit him with that FGO.
