Its simply amazing how trained officers the world over don't engage in this kind of violence but somehow American cops just can't help themselves.
How do you know that trained officers "the world over" dont engage in killing criminals? Are you routinely getting reports from cops in Rio, Calcutta, and Moscow?, no...because the liberal America hating media only reports on what happens here
I think that the problem is not that the cop shot at the guy, it is that they shot him 20 times....you would think 2 or three might do the trick
I think that the problem is not that the cop was trying to arrest a vandal, I think it is we live in a country where Dylan Roof, goes on a shooting spree, killing 9 people and they take him to Burger King because he's hungry. The guy they shot 20 times for breaking windows (should say suspected of breaking windows -- they didn't know for sure YET)......they handcuffed after he was shot 20 times and they did not quickly ask for medical assistance.
I think shooting at him only 1-2x would have been sufficient, but 20x does come across as excessive or police brutality to me. Except in the unlikely event evidence is found of "Yes, we shot him because he was Black", I think BLM is wasting their their time. What's worse is that Al Sharpton is involved. Finally, why are the 2 shooting cops constantly changing parts of their side of the story?

No, the problem is they use the race card and only protest when a black kid is shot. If the problem was being shot 20 times then they would protest any shooting like that regardless of the race.

From what i heard--the kid was in a dark area with something in his hands, and he lifted it up when the cops told him to stop--
The hands have to be clearly visible at all times. You cannot have police guns pointed at you and reach for ANYTHING, not even if you pants are falling down.
That cop was an idiot and it could have been avoided, but with those kinds of cops around it is important to remember to keep hands visible and make it much harder for them to have a reason to fire.
Or maybe it's because they're forced to hire those kinds of cops.
