How tragic? For the family, sure, but for society it's probably a plus.



We don't live in a society where we get to lawfully make that assumption - or at least we shouldn't live in such a society.

The equivalent argument would be to remove the driving privileges of all those who speed in excess of 10 MPH over the posted speed limit. It is only a matter of time before you're in an accident and you could take someone's life, so why wait?

Yeah kind of like you shouldn't make an assumption without knowing all the facts about the case as well. I guess every cop needs to roll up on every 911 call and ask the suspected gunman if he has removed the orange tip or if his gun is real. More blame goes on stupid kid, then the 911 dispatcher and then the police. Plain and simple. Everyone made mistakes starting most importantly with the one who started it all. Tamir.

You really think it's normal to threaten people in the park with a gun made to look real? You don't think this kid would have had a real gun if he had access to one?


Look, the police did an AWFUL job on this and the kids death could easily have been prevented. But some of you are acting like this was a young Neil Degrasse Tyson on the verge of discovering the key to dark matter. This was a future criminal, if statistical and objective evidence can be used.

It's the wrong person to paint as the example of your movement, just like Michael Brown. Another thug. Why do people want to make thugs the faces of their movement?
