“What does that say to you???”
Maybe it’s you who’s not reading. From my post:
“The cop may not have known immediately that he hit the kid on the first shot and thought the kid was dropping to minimize target size, hence, the ass shot.”
I’ve only fired at a range. When I do, vision down the barrel is obscured from the smoke, though I can see obvious movement. I imagine that if I were firing at someone, just seeing a body drop would not make me think the conflict was over, for the reason I indicate in my first post.
If he has an "ass shot" then which way is the kid facing as his body is lying horizontal on the ground as the deputy is pumping additional shots into him???
And you think that is a threat and justifiable???
