Funny how some news reports about this just shows angry black people upset over another black kid getting shot by the police. They don't mention 'gun man', but 'black teen shot by white cop' is more bait click and ad dollars.
Hey at least they can't call him an 'unarmed teen' this time.
If the people in Ferguson would stop acting like a bunch of untamed animals, all of this could end very easily. Act like a thug, die like a thug. I have no sympathy.
By the way, don't any of them have JOBS to go to? How are they finding all this time to loot stores, destroy property and shoot at cops?

This is turning out to be not just a racial issue, but a 'militarized police' issue. Do you think the police are too well-armed, and too trigger-happy?
The kid fired at the cop. Was the cop supposed to just stand there? If the kid did indeed fire at the cop, and I ASSUME that is easily proven, then that is justified. Why are people protesting? Is every death, even completely justifiable ones, now going to be a cause for protest? That's ridiculous.
I understand the kid was a poor shot using an unprofessional firing stance and likely could not have hit anything anyways, would have been better for the officer to shout an admonishment at him and call his mother later
Well, I'm going to wait and see how many of the cop's 17 shots actually hit its target.

That's another thing that drives me crazy about all this.
Look, I know I don't know the details of the Ferguson thing. That WAS a convulted mess. This one seems REALLY straightforward to me. Shoot at cop > die.
But the one thing I've NEVER understood. I do not get what possesses someone, anyone, to say: "Man! I am so pissed off about this thing that just happened!!! I'm going to go steal a TV!!!!"
Seriously, WTF? And you want us to take what you're saying seriously? And not only looting but looting from LOCAL BUSINESSES!
I want to meet the guy that saw Rodney King get beat and said to himself "Self....let's go get us a TV!!!!"
