Inspired by this post from @Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net
I love that simply searching for ‘acorn’ on YouTube gives the cop as 4th hit.

MODERATORS
For me -- in private browsing mode, although I think Youtube still does some personalization even through that -- 8 of the top 9 videos are about the incident. (The other video is the latest episode of Acorn to Arabella, which I'm a fan of BTW.)
It's about the first ten results for me, then a song by Akon.
Can the next big national protests involve throwing acorns at cops?
Be the change
Never going to live it down.
Which is how it should be. This needs to haunt that man for the rest of his life.
I am saddened that his triple barrel roll on the ground before he shot hasn't gotten more attention. It was the most ridiculous part of it all.
"I'm hit!" *triple barrel rolls*
It's like a kid playing cops and robbers
Also, let's not forget:
"It hit my vest." and "I feel weird" . I think that's called angina.
The glorious, and very tacticool, holo-sights on his sidearm and he still (thankfully) managed to miss the guy he was aiming for.
not one 'do a barrel role' edit yet?
scrat is ungovernable but it's just because whenever he tries to do anything involving acorns the fucking world explodes
I love how the source meme is probably the first high quality tier 4 meme in a long time. So much goes into understanding it.
spoiler
For those that havent seen the term, Tiered memes require knowledge of an earlier meme, the higher the tier the more memes go into it. In this case
1.scrat from ice age 2.the American police being trained to be afraid of everything 3.taylor Swifts jet 4.the actual event of the shooting
In this meme though we're referencing the Become Ungovernable, instead of Taylor swifts jet.
I love the internet meme makers. Long live the OC
Where is the Taylor Swift reference in this meme?
We swapped the Taylor swift for Become Ungovernable, the original meme (linked in OP) has the nut falling from her jet
She flew him up to that branch in her jet
