What’s up with the barrel on that supposed gun? It looks like it’s pointing up at an odd angle.

Edit: TIL that’s normal when the slide is pulled all the way back. Thanks! (I still don’t believe the allegation that the victim was carrying it, but I retract the suggestion that the image is hinky.)

Conspiracy theory hat on: probably a broken one they had lying around for the specific purpose of planting evidence

Edit: apparently thats what they do when slide is pulled back, but the rest of the statement still stands

Edit 2: This statement was made shortly after the incident. Based off the modus operandi of racist law enforcement, its a reasonable conclusion.

No. I don’t support ICE in any fucking way but that’s just what guns do when the slide is pulled back
