story you stupid kunt

[darkninja67]

this the BB gun kid???

[SeymourCake]

this the BB gun kid???

Airsoft Gun.

[tsbalr120]

At first how it was described I thought it was justified, but how they drove up like that is a concern.

[darkninja67]

Did he even get the gun out??

[SeymourCake]

...

Explain.

[Jon8than]

He was pointing a black BB gun at people. It didn't have the orange tip on it so you can't really blame the police. Any one care about people killing police officers?? It's only when cops kill people that they care about.

Except there was no BB gun.

[Aesthetical]

...

Explain.

They made it sound like they were much further away.
They said they told him to drop his weapon.
They said he reached in his waist band.
This video looks like they pull up, get out, and shoot.

Wish there was a better view or a more clear shot.

yeah if he just displayed the gun to the police then we have a problem but the second he points it at them they should be able to fire. JMO

One thing I still don't get why the fuk would the kid "reach" for the gun if its a fake? I don't believe that part at all.

Got attacked pretty hard in another thread for simply pointing out that the kid never pointed the gun at the cops (as told by the deputy chief of police), Here though it looks like the kid never even reached for the gun. They just drove up and shot him. Maybe the car blocks it, but it looks pretty suspicious.

The boy is 12, go on a cut bro, the high Triglycerides are fukking your brain in the asss literally

[Jon8than]

I heard he was going around pointing the gun at numerous people before the police got there. Its a sad story but he should never of removed the orange tip off the gun.

Go protest.

[tsbalr120]

Explain.

The reports were they pulled up, saw the weapon, pulled theirs and yell commands to put his hands up, he disobeyed and reached for the weapon.

That is a justified shooting.


The pulling up right in front of the kid and shooting so quick makes it murky. I don't think it's murder still, but manslaughter is probable.

Without talking about this case in particular, if cops waited for someone to not just withdraw a concealed gun but to aim it at them, they might as well wait for him to fire as well because if he intends to shoot he'll beat the cops reaction times

This story is tragic but reminds me of something that happened during my childhood. Our neighbor did not like us going into the woods to build forts and stuff so she would call the police if she caught us. One day as we were entering the woods with airsoft guns (orange caps) a police car pulled up and yelled:

"DROP IT" with his hand on his gun. Scared the crap out of us, thankfully this didn't happen.

[SeymourCake]

Again, there was no BB gun.

Meanwhile...

Little boy must have been high as ****.

[LatinoSlayer91]

Fuk, that's all I need to see. Criminal.

He deserves nothing less than extrajudicial execution by a one man firing squad

What a *******, glad he died.

One less criminal

One less welfare check

Wow

edit: Bro its a prank, its prank bro relax. Its just a prank

Police say Tamir Rice, who died Sunday, had an "airsoft" gun that appeared indistinguishable from a real firearm. Airsoft guns fire spherical plastic pellets and have orange tips to show they aren't real firearms, but police said the one the boy had didn't have the bright safety indicator.

Strong generalizations *******. You know he's on welfare, how?

How not to get shot by police....

Don't point a gun at multiple people, causing them to call police
When police arrive, don't reach for a gun
Don't assume all police are psychic, with a crystal ball, so they can know exactly what you're thinking, and what you're holding.

He pointed the gun at people walking by which prompted the guy to call the police. I thought they said he reached for the gun in his waistband which prompted the shooting since they knew he had a weapon (fake or not)

This, I blame the parents in this situation. Kid should of known better. I'm sure we all knew better as kids growing up.
