On the original (I guess) thread, I posted that although police searched the innocent cell phone guy’s house, at least they didn’t shoot his dog. Looks like I’ll need to backtrack on that a little. They shot someone else’s.

Let's see...If I point this at the cops while I'm on my knees, and all the shooting is going on, the cop would never think it was a weapon, right?
But maybe I can sell my pics to a tv show and make a few bucks...

Seriously! Yes! Our cell phone photography addiction is a fetish that can be life threatening.

This citizen was on his knees IN HIS GARAGE with a phone in his hand. This was police negligence.

Dadblamed cell phones. People’s lives are ruled by these little screens. Now this guy’s dadblamed cell phone gets him shot.
Put the darn things away!

I wonder if he had a high speed camera with high speed film
and caught the bullet coming at him?

I think the police need to know what they’re shooting at before they start shooting. Sounds a bit like the guys who shoot dogs or cows when deer hunting because they were shooting at sounds or shadows.

"This citizen was on his knees IN HIS GARAGE with a phone in his hand. This was police negligence."
I dunno about that. The police didn't know who all was exchanging fire in that shootout. And kneeling in your garage doesn't make it any less likely that you may be involved in said shootout. Based purely on the fact presented in the article I can't say for sure the police did anything wrong.

Was the cellphone one of these?...........................

If you’re so stupid as to have a black object pointed at the cops as you’re in a shooting position in your dark garage, well, you get what you get.

BS. Every person, from a cop on down to the commons has the responsibility to identify any target and condition before pulling the trigger. That goes from a shootout to hunting.

Exactly, that people do not see that is part of the problem.
