Did you see the size of that video camera? The thing is probably capable of at least 60 frames per second, PER SECOND.
Assault camera? I bet that cop was threatened as fuck by it
The cop:
CAMERA WAS SAURON!
Omg 60fps per second ?
At this point the onion needs to create a real news network called "The Shallot" or something because they've become more reputable than big outlets
It’s The Onion, but that doesn’t mean it’s implicitly untrue.
"It's funny because it's true!"

Fuck, I ate it.
None of this is funny anymore. They can't go any crazier than the shit happening on the daily.
Maybe they should do an about face and start telling the types of jokes you'd find in a joke book you'd get from a 2nd grade book fair. Anything to distract from this reality.
Dystopia isn't funny if you're living in one.
aint we all
Maybe the cop felt the camera's artificial gaze?
