Body camera shows as deputies were attempting to escort 82-year-old Anthony Goulding’s wife out of the home, Goulding began pouring gasoline on the carpet outside of a back bedroom.
Goulding’s right arm catches fire and then he throws a gas canister at the deputy. The flames grow larger.
Goulding passed away in the house fire, along with a dog.
“I think often times the judicial division gets kind of the label of it’s safe because we’re serving papers. There’s nothing safe about judicial. You are dealing with people’s emotions each and every day,” explained Sheriff Johnson III. “You’re taking someone’s home away. That’s their last stand like that. I can tell you the first time I bought my first piece of property, how proud I was to be a homeowner. That is the American dream. And [we]’re taking that away from somebody.”
God Bless the U.S.
Where we evict an 82 year old man and his parkinsons riddled wife he's caring for.
While the Sherriff brags about how dangerous it is for his deputies to evict them.
Exactly how was that bragging?
He was saying he didn't enjoy it. And that it was dangerous. Letting people know this isn't something that he likes. Nor that it's safe.
“I think often times the judicial division gets kind of the label of it’s safe because we’re serving papers. There’s nothing safe about judicial. You are dealing with people’s emotions each and every day,” explained Sheriff Johnson III.
The sheriff seems to care more about the safety of his deputies than the morality of dragging elderly people out of their home.
He does acknowledge that they are ousting someone from their home. But it is only brought up to reinforce the statement about safety.
“You’re taking someone’s home away. That’s their last stand like that. I can tell you the first time I bought my first piece of property, how proud I was to be a homeowner. That is the American dream. And you’re taking that away from somebody. You talk about a world of emotion. [I’m] extremely proud of our deputies because we really go above and beyond to try to help our citizens along the way.”

That's the most fucked up part.
I’m at a point in my radicalization where I only care about the suffering of small children and animals.
Half the time I don't even care about the small children.
Humanity is a plague that desperately needs dealt with.
So what is your solution? Annihilation? I think it's blind to see humanity as doomed
My solution is unfeasible. Because humans are fallible primitive creatures who refuse to acknowledge their shortcomings.
My solution is that we all be fuckin better. We understand that it's us vs nature. That no amount of person on person conflict will ever elevate us further than our already pitiful existence.
Start with yourself, champ.
HAHAHAHAHA THIS IS SO FUNNY AND ORIGINAL!
Sorry I can recognize that all of the worlds problems stem from humanities failures.

Outside of natural disasters like earthquakes/hurricanes/tornadoes name one ecological disaster that's not directly affected by human interference.
Such a shame, apparently he was still young enough to be president too
Very sad and an unnecessary death - he should've only set fire to the house instead. In fact, anyone getting evicted should do that.
Evictions are violence. All landlords and cops are bastards.
