Doesn't fit the modern narrative.  Victim isn't black or gender dysphoric.  Even giving the story legs at all is indicative of white privilege.

No say his name marches in the streets? No blocking traffic and pulling people out of their cars and beating the crap out of them? No looting of Target and Nike stores?

Kloepfer Lawsuit Documents ‘Attempted Murder’ of Unarmed Citizen by Police
https://www.ammoland.com/2023/06/kloepfer-lawsuit-documents-attempted-murder-of-unarmed-citizen-by-police/?ct=t(RSS_EMAIL_CAMPAIGN)
The lawsuit has started on this incident.
Quote
U.S.A. — “In an explosive federal lawsuit filed Tuesday in the U.S. District Court of Western North Carolina, the victim of a December 2022 police shooting in Cherokee County seeks millions of dollars in damages while laying out the sequence of alleged violations of policy and law that led to what he says was an attempted murder by police,” Smoky Mountain News reports. “The lawsuit lists 25 counts of action, with different combinations of defendants named in each. It seeks a jury trial and wants that jury to award Kloepfer a judgment to cover damages, punitive damages, and attorney’s fees.”

A gofundme is linked in the story as well.

Considering that there have been many people (frequently antis) who have openly advocated "SWATting" gun owners, I expect to see more incidences like this over the next several years.
Especially if "Brandon" is re-elected.

Court Filing by Indian Police Defendants Contradicts Sheriff’s Account of Kloepfer Shooting

Looks like the Reservation officers testified the Sheriff was on site contradicting what he said as well as the quote below.  All the hardware and information was there to make this event go down peacefully, but none of it was used apparently. 

Quote
They deny that he was ‘gunned down by the SWAT team.’ They deny that his and Mahler’s “lives are permanently harmed and disrupted.” They attest Kloepfer “appear[ed] to hold a weapon in his right hand” while acknowledging he “walked outside with his hands up and out in front of him.” They also say they were aware the deployed drone robot was being monitored, and “they were wearing intercom devices that included earpieces and a microphone connected to the inside of their helmets,” meaning police must have seen Kloepfer pick the drone up with his right hand.
