    I remember one time when a Latino chud went with his mother for an MRI scan. He took his pistol into the examination room and, when the machine started working, the gun went off and killed him.

      very sad that the rifle didn’t go off when it was sucked into the MRI, killing the officer, and triggering an overreaction from the other officers resulting in a shootout leaving most of them dead or permanently injured beyond the capacity to do their jobs anymore

    An officer then allegedly pulled a sealed emergency release button that shut the MRI machine down, deactivating it, evaporating thousands of liters of helium gas and damaging the machine in the process. The officer then grabbed his rifle and left the room, leaving behind a magazine filled with bullets on the office floor, according to the lawsuit.

    Lmao cop left the room so fast with his piggy tail between his legs in shame that he didn’t even notice.

    Officers allegedly raided the diagnostic center, located in the Van Nuys neighborhood of Los Angeles, thinking it was a front for an illegal cannabis cultivation facility, pointing to higher-than-usual energy use

    Man, it’s almost like they were running some kind of large piece of medical equipment in there that uses a lot of electricity.

      “See that guy in the MRI machine, drug dealer.”

      “That elderly lady crying while looking at her scans, drug kingpin.”

      “The doctor over there, hit man.”

      “That dog over there, head of the growing operation.”

        I think your municipal electricity bill is a matter of public record.

        High electricity bills are a potential sign someone is running a growhouse (that and they can to thermal readings of the house). Idk how exactly it works but if a building has usually high energy usage for it’s zoned purpose it can potentially lead to police investigation.

      You’d think they would just like…send a guy down there in plainclothes to look around or something before conducting a massive raid.

        Or just like… have a squad car drive past it?

        “Hey uh Chief, I checked out that location that got pinged cuz of their energy bill.”

        “WE HAVE THE SWAT TEAM READY!!!”

        “No, Chief, it’s a radiology clinic, they got like, X-Rays and shit.”

        “WE’RE GONNNA ROLL OUT!”

        “Chief, I’m pretty sure there isn’t a gro…”

        “LOCK AND LOAD!!!”

    From what I understand, due to the war in Ukraine we are actually currently in a medical helium shortage, it’s like 4-5x the cost that it was a few years ago. I think that one release would probably cost the facility something like $50000 to replace

        Not Ukraine, but Russia. The 4 main producers are US federal reserve (us gov not allowed to mine more and must sell reserves), Russia, Qatar, and Algeria. The shortage has been going on for over a decade at this point, but it still isn’t “economical” for us businesses to increase helium production yet.

    Had no idea they even contained that much, although I’m guessing it’s compressed. Also, what dipshit, too embarrassed and stubborn to ask someone there to get it off properly.
