The cop runs like when I try to run in my dreams
Unfortunately when this cop retires, he’ll likely be replaced by someone trigger happy
Fuck the police
YES!
Whether he was actually guilty is besides the point, you gotta respect the game.
One for the good guys.
Oink oink
Go sit at the pec deck for another 30 minutes you fat fuck.
He literally used video game kiting strats to pull him away from the bike so he had enough time to sprint to it and mount it.
Hate to break it to you, but kiting was a thing before video games.
But yes that is also where I learned the concept.
So this post got me curious to the etymology of the term. And from what I’ve been able to discern, the term seems to in fact originate from gaming.
I mean, obviously the tactic pre-dates recorded history. But ‘kiting’, in regards to the term itself, doesn’t seem to be a thing before video games.
It’s funny because we seem to retroactively assign the term to ancient military tactics. I doubt they called it kiting. They’d probably call it ÖRGÛLŸK, and every Mongolian worth their salt would know how to perform flawless ÖRGÛLŸK.
ÖRGÛLŸK
and now they sell them to anyone at Ikea.
They’re delicious and cheap, I don’t care if they have horse meat in them.
But it gained widespread knowledge worldwide as a tactic thanks to RTS.
Ask a kid what kiting is, and they won’t refer to Genghis Khan.
…lol I’m trying to decide if you’re informing me that kites predate video games, but also I find it hard to believe that you didn’t know what a kite was until you played video games.
Kiting, a verb, not kite a noun. Kiting is the acting of moving away from an enemy while they chase you.
I looked up the etymology on “kite”, and it’s quite interesting. Apparently, its original use was to describe a hawk whose call sounds kind of like “kite”. Then it was used more generally to describe all birds in that family.
The kite toy was named after the bird, because the bird tended to try to sit on some wind while hunting, so it was basically hovering like a toy kite.
The action of leading an enemy around is named after the toy kite, because a kite in flight is always the length of the string away from the person flying the kite. So, like if you tried to run from the kite, it would always be the same distance away chasing you. You’re leading the kite around on a string. And so you would kite an enemy in the same sense.
I think it’s Paperboy
Haha still got pepper sprayed twice for it
Bro kited that cop away from his bike like it was an MMO, absolutely marvelous talent.
Seems fake
This is a good example of why all y’all should be working out! When the revolution happens, you need to be at least so fit.
The state need not kill those that are killing themselves
Don’t make it an easy job for them
The killing of kids with two pound chicken and chips
Is a tactic of war, waged on the poor
Can’t save wages on slave wages
And you don’t think fresh fruit with your face on the floor
Nah, you need money for the kids
Rent and light plus food in the fridge
But that last box can be the hardest tick
Cos scraps will suffice but they might make you sick
As a child I used to chow takeout
24 hours later skin breakout
Felt so heavy with it sitting in my belly
Desert was a sugar-coated candy filled jelly
Fam that’s pig meat
Mashing up the kidney
Make sure no government has to kill me
I was killing myself till I realised danger
Brain, heart, liver and lungs can hit failure
Now season dahl and veg with fresh herbs
Cut caffeine because it messed with nerves
Plenty lentils and chickpea curry
20 minute meal for a man in a hurry
That’s real fast food that won’t break the bank
With enough nutrients to fill the tank
Drink water for the body’s natural power
But water from taps can taste sour
Food deserts are designed to starve us
No fresh produce but we got Starbucks
Calories packed in treats to enlarge us
May not see the effect but the heart does
Can’t breathe can’t sleep can’t run
Casomorphin wreaks havoc on the lungs
Just like fizzy wreaks havoc on the gums
And my old man said diabetes ain’t fun
Ginger root is good for the youts
Blend it up and share a fresh juice
Burn sage, cleanse the room
Body is a temple, don’t let it be a tomb
The food you choose to consume can damage
Processed meats intestines can’t manage
Cattle farming still killing off the planet
And it tells us everyday that it can’t stand it
Earth getting hotter while the sea levels rise
All because you want burger with those fries
All because you want milkshake with the meal
Then to combat diarrhoea you take pills
What’s the deal?
Eat right, stay active, stay strong
Cause the revolution is real
Never know when a man might have to dash
And a pig can’t kill what a pig can’t catch
It’s more than just eating right, it’s survival
Rasta man tell the youts to eat ital
Daily exercise, fresh air is vital
Whether you short walk, run or take cycle
Meditate to live life and love it
Plus stress increases acid in stomachs
Read and chill to keep the mental covered
And when you find struggle you try rise above it
I find peace in the books on the shelf
Food on the stove while it cooks I can smell
It’s gonna be good by the looks I can tell
When it won’t put my body through hell, well
Well, I want strength like Phelps
Good practices and discipline helps
It’s not for the 6 pack I do it for myself
Cos it’s true what they say your health is wealth
(Instrumental)
Oh by the way
Remember you’re a gift to yourself
And a gift to your environment
Continue to be that beautiful gift
Share that gift in your food and all your gastronomic mastery
But also, and more importantly:
It is very necessary that you get this straight. Most people have very confused notions about revolution. To them it means just fighting, smashing things, destroying. It is the same as if rolling up your sleeves for work should be considered as the work itself that you have to do. The fighting part of revolution is merely the rolling up of your sleeves. The real, actual task is ahead.
What is that task?
“The destruction of the existing conditions,” you reply.
True. But conditions are not destroyed by breaking and smashing things. You can’t destroy wage slavery by wrecking the machinery in mills and factories, can you? You won’t destroy government by setting fire to the White House.
To think of revolution in terms of violence and destruction is to misinterpret and falsify the whole idea of it. In practical application such a conception is bound to lead to disastrous results.
When a great thinker, like the famous Anarchist Bakunin, speaks of revolution as destruction, he has in mind the ideas of authority and obedience which are to be destroyed. It is for this reason that he said that destruction means construction, for to destroy a false belief is indeed most constructive work.
But the average man, and too often even the revolutionist, thoughtlessly talks of revolution as being exclusively destructive in the physical sense of the word. That is a wrong and dangerous view. The sooner we get rid of it the better.
Revolution, and particularly the social revolution, is not destruction but construction. This cannot be sufficiently emphasized, and unless we clearly realize it, revolution will remain only destructive and thereby always a failure. Naturally revolution is accompanied by violence, but you might as well say that building a new house in place of an old one is destructive because you have first to tear down the old one. Revolution is the culminating point of a certain evolutionary process: it begins with a violent upheaval. It is the rolling up of your sleeves preparatory to starting the actual work.
Indeed, consider what the social revolution is to do, what it is to accomplish, and you will perceive that it comes not to destroy but to build.
What, really, is there to destroy?
The wealth of the rich? Nay, that is something we want the whole of society to enjoy.
The land, the fields, the coal mines, the railroads, factories, mills, and shops? These we want not to destroy but to make useful to the entire people.
The telegraphs, telephones, the means of communication and distribution — do we want to destroy them? No, we want them to serve the needs of all.
What, then, is the social revolution to destroy? It is to take over things for the general benefit, not to destroy them. It is to reorganize conditions for the public welfare.
Not to destroy is the aim of the revolution, but to reconstruct and rebuild.
It is for this that preparation is needed, because the social revolution is not the Biblical Messiah who is to accomplish his mission by simple edict or order. Revolution works with the hands and brains of men. And these have to understand the objects of the revolution so as to be able to carry them out. They will have to know what they want and how to achieve it. The way to achieve it will be pointed by the objects to be attained. For the end determines the means, just as you have to sow a particular seed to grow the thing you need.
What, then, must the preparation for the social revolution be?
If your object is to secure liberty, you must learn to do without authority and compulsion. If you intend to live in peace and harmony with your fellow-men, you and they should cultivate brotherhood and respect for each other. If you want to work together with them for your mutual benefit, you must practice coöperation. The social revolution means much more than the reorganization of conditions only: it means the establishment of new human values and social relationships, a changed attitude of man to man, as of one free and independent to his equal; it means a different spirit in individual and collective life, and that spirit cannot be born overnight. It is a spirit to be cultivated, to be nurtured and reared, as the most delicate flower is, for indeed it is the flower of a new and beautiful existence.
Do not dupe yourself with the silly notion that “things will arrange themselves.” Nothing ever arranges itself, least of all in human relations. It is men who do the arranging, and they do it according to their attitude and understanding of things.

Or at least be fitter than cops. Which as a 200lb guy who only eats KFC once a week, I already am. I shouldn’t be.
I agree except for one thing. should a revolution even happen, people will be fighting for their lives.
neither of these men were fighting as if their lives depended upon the outcome.
nothing motivates better than the real threat of death.
still, get fit and you only increase your chances of survival.
I don’t think we as individuals have a choice anymore, it is being made for us as we speak. Everything is getting much more expensive and wages are remaining flat. There’s a lot of hungry people, and a quick death is preferable to starving.
He’s running circles around him.
See this is proof that police have to use lethal Force because they’re so fucking lazy and worthless they can’t even jog without almost dying
He really wanted that bike back
He would’ve been fucked if the cop had gotten on the bike to chase him instead
Because the cop would have had a heart attack and then he’d be charged with murder?
Looked like GTA except the cops didn’t immediately open fire.
That’s cause he’s white
