"hey u see that guy on the roof with a rifle?"

"yah lol"

"Must be a good guy with a gun."

“It’s ok, everyone here has way more guns. That’ll make him stop and go home, mark my w…. Oh shit!!”

To be fair they went to confront him and he pointed his gun at their head. Since those who went to confront weren’t armed, they retreated and sounded an alert, but the dude shot towards diaper don before anyone could do anything about it.

90 minutes before that, probably:

officer:1 "You guys see that kid walking around the neighboring building with a gun, lol?"

officer2: "Yeah, I waved at him, somebody should make sure he's not here to shoot the president lol"
