Our cops should be trained to learn how to handle situations like this without using lethal force. Thats what pisses me off. Idgaf about the race, it scares me that we have cops with this shoot first ask questions later mentality. And yea, you can say a cop has to act in self defense and protect his life as well, and thats cool, I totally agree. But they need to learn how they can avoid being in that situation in the first place. And the problem is they have the generic cop mentality that everyone here hates. Thats what gets them into situations where they feel they have to use lethal force.

THANK YOU
The fact that this is lost in all the RABBLE RABBLE of Ferguson is the most disturbing thing in all of this. Overzealous, over-militarized and ego-maniacal cops are a major problem facing our country.

As they're pulling up, he gets up from the table, pulls the "gun" out of his waistband and walks towards the cops. Again dumb arse games, gets you dumb arse prizes. He also doesn't look like a child. It ain't a 5 year old playing with a cap gun here.

You're so wise.
By wise, I mean you've probably tried to frick a light socket.

Easy to say from your computer chair.
The kid ripped the orange tip off and was pointing it at people in the parking lot and the cops responded and he pulled it out.

They believed this was a legitimate threat. Their procedure is in question, but using lethal force when someone has a gun is justified. I won't play the "what if's", this situation sucks on both sides.

If it's a threat to another American, it's a threat to you!
