And yet the person who called the police told the dispatcher twice that he believed the gun was probably fake. And in not a single report did anyone say that the kid pointed the gun at the police. So a civilian could tell what two trained cops could not. And without any evidence that either he or anyone else was at risk the officer guns down a 12 year old boy. So in this day and age apparently police can shoot anyone for any excuse and people will cheer them on.
I have NO IDEA of what the kids body language “expressed” when he pulled THE TOY...or what he may or may not have said.
Sadly the Police are walking TARGETS in SO many neighborhoods today that this doesnt surprise me in the least.
I won’t second guess the cop because i didnt witness the entire event.
That's the key point right there.
Quick, split second is the gun real?....BANG! You’re dead. That is how much time cops have to decide.
