Seems maybe the cop shouldn't have shot the guy, idk.


maybe?

I don't know what happened, do you?

if the cop's story is true, I don't have an issue with the cop protecting himself and child.

Outside of the man having a weapon, there are ZERO scenarios where shooting someone in a freaking Costco is okay.

I'm sure I'll get blasted for this, but I worked with people with mental disabilities for 10 years. That picture is either the best picture ever of the non verbal guy or he is not completely non verbal. My guess is the guy doesn't speak well and is lower IQ but that doesn't mean he can't use basic communication. Also as said, where were his parents? My guess is they were the worst kind of helicopter parents and over sympathized their son's disabilities and let him do whatever they hell he wanted.

Also, this "cop" was with his family shopping off duty. What kind of POS editor allows his profession to have anything to do with this "story"?

What could possibly transpire inside a Costco that would legitimately warrant shooting a mentally disabled guy and his two parents?
