This article is confusing

“Waukesha South High School is ‘safe and secure’ after a student was shot by an officer for pointing a gun at law enforcement, police say.”

and then

“Other officers responded to the classroom and began talking with the suspect in an attempt to deescalate the situation. The 17-year-old student would not remove his hands from his pocket and continued to ignore officer’s commands, authorities said.

Eventually, police say the officer was forced to fire at the student when he would not remove his hands from his pocket.”

Which is it? Both can’t be true at the same time

The town is 2% black.

Seems like a weird incident.

Has ANYONE confirmed it was a gun in the kids pocket?

Someone may have some ‘splainin’ to do if it was a cell phone or if he was happy to see someone etc....

Of course, kid stupid for not showing hands....

Seems mutually exclusive to me, too.

“Both can’t be true at the same time”

Sure they can. And your children, or theirs, will agree or face the consequences.

Enemies of life and liberty are, eventually, not Dems, not the left and not socialists. The collapse of all civilization is the goal of post modernists.

1 + 1 = 2. 1 + 1 = cow. Either both at once or fluid. It depends on what demons from hell consider will burn the planet to a cinder.

Also says he was shot after allegedly bringing gun to school.

So maybe it’s just that he was allegedly shot.

If memory serves, another article (Fox News, IIRC) said that the criminal refused to show his hands for some time then pulled the weapon and pointed it at the cop.
