Love the articles that say he was unarmed. Kid was fricking unarmed for 3 seconds when he threw his weapon. fricking absurd to say he was “unarmed” as if a cop shot some innocent kid.

think a Delta Force operative would still have lit this kid up. They aren’t going to let someone turn and face them with a gun
You’ve gone so far past full retard ITT I’d be impressed if I weren’t so disgusted.
The cop has the gun pointed at the kid - this means he’s still in an advantageous position even if the kid has a gun because it’s clearly not pointed at the cop. So even if the kid turned with the gun pointed upward (which he didn’t; he had ditched it), there’s still no need to shoot

he did drop a gun at some point but wasn’t in possession of it when he was shot
And at 2:30 in the morning with out the aid of slow motion it makes it easy to armchair QB this. WATCH THE REAL TIME VIDEO. The weapon can be seen at his side. This is a good shoot and wouldn’t even be an issue it the kid just didn’t run with a gun. Hell if he hadn’t turned around he wouldn’t have been a threat!

Stfu Democrat. This isn’t a video game this is real life. You’d be dead with all the thinking you would do before deciding if you need to shoot.

Because he was a scared 13 year old kid that was special needs. Why you victim blaming? That kid was murdered in cold blood.
So the guy committing the crime (ie. The causative factor in the LEO interaction) is not at fault......interesting mental gymnastics

The people that failed Adam were his parents.

Key word is “should”....have you ever gone shooting with cops? Better yet ask them what their follow on training is like once they graduate from the academy.

Again...you have the benefit of watching the video repeatedly in slow motion on your couch. The officer was running, in the dark, helicopter strobe light, and knows the perp has a gun. Not as easy as you’re making it out to be. Can you admit that?

Show me your hands is basically his worst possible choice here.
Put your hands up is better. It doesn’t imply showing them to someone who is behind you.
Show me your hands is going to get a majority of people to turn around. You should try it tomorrow afternoon on the streets of New Orleans.
If you're running from a cop who yells "show me your hands," you're going to turn around like you don't know who is yelling that at you?

As a combat veteran I just want to tell you that you are a mental midget. You identify the suspect with a gun and the suspect turns to face you and you have 1/2 a second to react.....the cop was justified 100%.....and less not forget what the causative factor too all this was....100% the kids fault!

Suicide by cop.

Pure libatard gold. So let's just let all these people with outstanding warrants and police records make the first move. Maybe they will shoot or maybe they want. You guys and gals are all fricked up. Not one of these good boys was shot following direct orders. They disobeyed and resisted plain and simple. Cops are trained for these scenarios but sometimes thing go south real quick and either the cop dies or the person resisting dies. Unfortunately when the cop dies it's just a statistic but when a BLACK dies it's national news. Your reply and your Main stream media is the problem not the solution.

Not even fricking close. But authoritarian neocons like yourself are just as much of a threat to liberty as are woke leftists.

You are clearly the village idiot here. Take a break, you’re embarrassing yourself.

I'm at not a combat vet at all, but I can't see how anyone who has ever played a first person shooter video game can disagree with you. And that is sitting in your nice comfy chair with it coming at you in real time. Imagine running up and you actually might die if you make the slightest mistake.

the cop told him to drop the gun, and the kid apparently obliged, right? so do you see what we are getting at here?
Defending this kid is insane.
And what’s with people arguing until they’re blue in the face, Pride being vindicated, and then acting like he’s to a-hole here?

Dude do you realize what people can do in a half second with a gun in their hand given the chance? 2 seconds? 10? I’ve seen people be completely fine for a large amount of time after being shot to shite by cops.
In no way, shape, or form would I EVER ask someone in the cop’s position to hold their fire. What kind of evil person do you have to be to want him to wait?
