Google "cop in Florida acorn"

It's a good thing you added "acorn" there!

Fortunately he was a horrible shot and didn’t actually hit the unarmed man in handcuffs in his car.

And didn't he have a partner who came and did similarly too? Neither managed to kill the guy they had already previously verified had no weapons.

Hey, that guy in the car could have been some sort of X-Men mutant that had gun powers. You can never be too sure.

That's one way to test if he had somehow gained the power to become bulletproof, I suppose. It might have worked better if they could at least aim straight though:-P.

Hope he's forever known as officer acorn, just like officer bubbles

In a just world he would be known as "Prisoner 0103151814"
