Somali Cop Who Shot Justine Damond Was In Midst Of Divorce

Heavy has two interesting facts. Once, the partner was stunned when Officer Noor shot:

Authorities have been very vague and tight-lipped on the shooting, saying that it’s under investigation.

However, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune newspaper has reported, through three sources, that Damond, 40, was in her pajamas when shot and was speaking to Noor’s partner at the time through the window of a police car in which Noor was allegedly a passenger.

“Three sources with knowledge of the incident said Sunday that two officers in one squad car, responding to the 911 call, pulled into the alley. Damond, in her pajamas, went to the driver’s side door and was talking to the driver. The officer in the passenger seat pulled his gun and shot Damond through the driver’s side door, sources confirmed. No weapon was found at the scene,” the Star Tribune reported.

Her fiancee, Don Damond, said in a news conference that she had called to report a potential sexual assault.

CBS Minneapolis reports that Noor has an attorney, Tom Plunkett. The television station reported that Damond “made the 911 call and was speaking to police officers Saturday night. They were near the alley when the officer in the passenger seat reached across and shot her. A cell phone was found near Damond’s body…”

Noor’s partner was allegedly “stunned” when Noor opened fire, KARE11 reported through a source.

The partner will also probably never hear out of that ear quite the same again.

So it does appear the shooting was probably as bad as it initially sounded. It is also possible Noor saw the cell phone and thought it was a gun. It would be interesting to know if it was black.

Heavy also reports Officer Noor was in the midst of a divorce:

According to The Star-Tribune, he was named in a December divorce action. The Star Tribune reported that “Noor was described in divorce documents filed in December as a caring, involved father who was at times consumed by the demands of his job.”

The amygdala is actually very much like a muscle. I would assume everybody’s amygdala could, with enough stress, be overloaded to the breaking point, and manipulated into failure. Once in failure, conscious desire, intent, wanting the best – it is all meaningless. You will do what you always do, and the outcome will be bad.

Like a muscle, the amygdala is also conditionable. In this case, I would bet there was some aspect of the divorce which was coming to a head, and had his amygdala in high gear – and in this case firing off a threat stimulus and triggering action when it shouldn’t have. It is even possible that the amygdala had been conditioned to fire off in response to a emotional/agitated woman without him noticing it, and he didn’t even know it.

But when he saw an agitated woman, his amygdala loaded up, and next thing he knew her cell phone turned into a gun in his mind, she was a threat to his well-being, and he was firing. It is all very mechanical, and dependent on the development of the structure, which is itself dependent on the natural abilities the individual brings. If you begin with a weaker structure, then the pattern recognition process can be astonishingly unspecific and vague. It really takes a lot of cognitive power for the mind to begin perceiving subtle differences in the broad pattern in real time, and creating sub-categories of trigger with different forms of response. It is easy to shoot everything that moves in a microsecond. It is much more difficult to begin classifying different types of movement, and deciding which gets shot and which does not.

More ominously, it is also possible that his amygdala was conditioned to fire off in rage and/or threat in response to the visage of an agitated woman through repeated interactions with his wife regarding the divorce which each triggered rage and threat. When he saw another agitated woman he was overtaken with rage and a sense of threat, and that helped trigger the events. There is no way to tell now, but I would not be surprised. Everything cognitive is the amygdala-mechanism.

IQ and mental ability are important. Import low IQs, and you see how the mistakes they make can add up to much more than they are individually. This one amygdala blip will fracture the entire community in that area. It will split Americans from Somalis. It will split Police from the community. It will alienate people from their government. It will expose the fraudulent left-wing media as partisan shills selectively promoting their left-wing agenda. It will even spread across America. And it would all have been avoided if we had enforced our borders to begin with, and only run selection for everything based on a meritocracy. Violate that, and this path is unavoidable, because there will be hundreds of these incidences, and each will pile on top of the other.

Now we have a shooting that looks bad, and if it is anything like it looks, this officer will suffer some sort of consequence, even if just being moved out of the Police force (which, in fairness, it would appear he was cognitively unsuited for). If and when that happens, watch the BlackLivesMatters community explode at the fact this black cop shot a spoiled white woman and was punished somehow, while the evil KKK-loving officer who shot the innocent 8 year old schoolboy Michael Brown, for no reason, as he operated his lemonade stand, got off without any consequence. Buildings will burn when that happens. Even Americans will be pitted against each other over the color of their skin, all because some leftist idiot decided to import foreigners who, as a whole, lack the IQ to assimilate effectively.

We are entering the age of unrest, whether that unrest makes any sense or not, and it is all because of the r-selected reproductive strategy that is modern liberalism.

This is the age of high amygdala, and everybody has got it – and we have not yet even seen the collapse.
