That's the factor that's being ignored on here. The kid wasn't a 18 year old with the build of that of an adult. Wearing a hoodie and holding a gun was plain stupid but the cops should of analyzed the situation properly. I'm pretty sure police officers go thru extensive training in analyzing the various situations just like they do when firing to kill.
Let the bashing on MY opinion begin.  |
So your opinion is that a bullet fired by a 13 year old hurts less than from an 18 year old? Brilliant.
And what, we are supposed to assume that if it's a "child," that it's a fake gun? Turn on the news, kids have REAL guns these days and use them indiscriminately on a regular basis. I'd argue that a child with a firearm is more dangerous.
It's just a shame this his "parents" weren't on the receiving end of some of it.
Now, what I do question is the timeline. I've read reports that shots were fired between 6-10 seconds from the deputies first reporting a suspicious person. They also say they asked him to drop the weapon twice. Seems pretty quick to me.
In any case, we now have another reason to have national discussion on racism and the "parents" will likely become minor celebrities and profit.
