Diallo had no criminal record and was not armed, nor did he have any drugs in his possession or his system. Diallo's only crime was possibly resembling a rape suspect those cops were looking for when they shot him. That, to most folks, was what outraged so many over this particular incident.

Don't be so quick to label those shot by police as criminals.
