And thank goodness for bodycam video.
Geesh, what video did you watch??!
That’s just it...in order for us to really see what happened we have to slow the video 1/4 speed. The cop on the run going after the hoodlum couldn’t slow down ongoing reality that way and he had to make a split decision whether to shoot or fire. The gun was filmed on the ground on body cam resting on the ground some feet from the criminal’s head. The miscreant had ditched it before turning while raising his hands and met his doom.
” AN APPARENTLY UNARMED KID”....
so grateful to have your astute analysis and opinion from afar...
No one has the full story and video analysis yet..but YOU..just like the Media so ready to look at a body cam video ONLINE NO LESS and in your PERSONAL opinion this is murder.
right or wrong,, you behave like the media....
with citizens like you behaving like the media...cops dont stand a chance.
“The cop made a bad decision to shoot an apparently unarmed kid with his hands up and open. Poor training, trigger happy, mistake, or intentional, it is plain wrong. Murder in my personal opinion.”
People are playing the video at 1/4 speed and frame by frame to see exactly what is happening and you are calling it 100% bad shot? If you were confronted by someone who you knew was armed and he spun around would you assume that he was now unarmed? You’re asking for lightning-fast reflexes and extraordinary senses from police.
I’m not saying it was a good shoot, and no doubt Chicago will burn, but I have to give the cop the benefit of the doubt on this one.
Sod off troll-boi.
