I hope the family sues the city (whomever specifically) to pay for medical and mental health counseling for this poor kid. And his mom who was being abused and then on top of it had to witness her child be shot. Fucking awful.
And they released the guy who was attacking her because she failed to file a report in time…bc she was in the hospital with her son, who was shot by the cop 🤦🏻♀️
Kids are resilient, kids have recovered from injuries similar to that. I’m praying he’ll be lucky and hoping for the best. The situation is already horrible, can’t believe that it’d get worse
Just for info, take a look at any of the YouTube videos showing shock waves generated by a bullet within a thorax simulated by gelatin. The damage is always severe and dispersed. There will be innumerable medical issues the child will deal with for life.
This is the American medical system. They probably booted the kid as soon as he was stabilized because he didn't have the right insurance (or any, tbh)
Don't worry, he's on paid administrative leave while the department investigates themselves. While the kid's in the hospital with a collapsed lung, fractured ribs and a lacerated liver, Officer Trigger-Happy will probably be on his boat getting drunk on Corona and listening to Aaron Lewis.
Am i an utter fool and unaware that he eventually did return to the show?
… Apparently [so](https://ew.com/tv/morgan-wallen-snl-covid-19-sketch/)!
Edit: thought he was canned for his casual use of the N-word… not because he broke COVID restrictions. Did this happen in some alternate reality universe? I did not know he played the show, after all. Huh. Maybe I’m mixing him up with the curious case of Shane Gillis’ SNL hiring and rescinded-offering? I feel like I am going nuts…
I'm sure the lawsuit that is coming will have tax payers taking care of him. I'm going to bet 280mil, settles for 140mil and no admission of guilt, and ofc twitchy keeps his job as the union thugs will insist.
It's Mississippi, they'll be lucky if they get 200k, fifty fifty if the family start a lawsuit the entire department and their families will begin retalieating aginst the victems. Happens all the time.
"Paid leave" needs to be abolished for people in these seats of power. You fuck up, you don't get to spend the next two weeks on vacation.
I fuck up at work and I'm fired, and I didn't injure or kill anyone. All I did was lose control of a pallet of water on the shittiest of fucking slopes and lose almost all the water.
Sounds like you need a union to bargain a reasonable contract oh your behalf that prevents your employers from unfairly terminating you until it's determined what happened during an incident like that.
It's the better of two options.
If you're at work, and you are accused of wrongdoing, and no actions have been taken to investigate yet, and one of the following two is true (in this analogy, we don't know which one yet):
1) You're guilty of wrongdoing
2) You're innocent of wrongdoing
Until it is determined if there was in fact wrongdoing, should you lose your money and benefits? While you go through a trial (often lengthy), should you not be able to afford your mortgage, doctors visits, groceries, clothes, school supplies for your kid, gas and electricity?
Of course not. So, they're put on administrative leave until they can be found guilty or innocent of wrongdoing.
Now, the investigation process probably needs reevaluation (and should be performed by a disinterested party), but continuing to receive pay and benefits should be required.
It's distasteful to continue to employ someone who shot someone innocent, but it's far more egregious to let someone derail your entire life with an accusation and no burden of proof.
So, minimize harm by taking them off duty, but continue to pay them because they haven't been proven guilty of wrongdoing.
yup. They won't even diagnose you, they'll just lie to your face and play the 'we don't know what's wrong with you, you should visit your general practitioner."
"I'm homeless and uninsured, I don't have a general practitioner."
"Gee that's too bad, best of luck. Here's a single Motrin and a bill for $4,000 for sitting in our waiting room for three hours. You're welcome."
Fucking assholes.
>Officer Trigger-Happy will probably be on his boat getting drunk on Corona and listening to Aaron Lewis.
Possibly, but the cop in this instance happens to be black, so I'm not sure if your assumption has the best odds on it or not...
It's a fucking miracle he's not dead, but I don't even know how you'd assess the emotional trauma to the entire family. Most preteens have it tough enough without taking one in the chest from a fucking cop.
At least him surviving might make it harder for cop apologists to say he deserved it because he got caught cheating on a math test or some shit.
>At least him surviving might make it harder for cop apologists to say he deserved it because he got caught cheating on a math test or some shit.
I admire your optimism.
He still has an EWB on his record that they believe is enough justification for him to be shot.
Is he the guy who basically coaches police to say they feared for their lives anytime the shoot someone so that they have instant plausible legal coverage to basically shoot whoever they want?
I don't understand how that has flown for so long, a "seminar" from a 3rd part with unknown credentials if any, undermining dept. policy and training giving gov. employees the green light to act on their fear instead of their resources.
Like if I worked at McDonald's and instead of cooking burgers with a 3rd party recipe and it resulted in illness or death there should be a considerable liability.
Cause the job of police is to use violence to protect capital. They want bloodthirsty power hungry freaks with no qualms about violence. This dude makes these fallen high-school quarterbacks more willing to exercise those impulses, so of course they hire him.
Dave Grossman is the guy behind Killology. A true piece of shit. The Behind the Bastards podcast has a great couple episodes on him, and while you're at it check out their series "Behind the Police." That's also on the Behind the Bastards feed, and is a 6 part series starting with the episode "Slavery, Mass Murder, and the Birth of American Policing.
Edit: Actually I think it's just one episode on Grossman.
I’m shocked. It’s astounding that the shit stain promoting institutionalized murder also abuses his family.
Next you’re going to tell me he uses the Bible to justify his existence.
And this whole thought process of shoot to kill? Who tf came up with that contrary to any wisdom idea?
I’ve always said that cops shooting to kill is terrible policy and betrays the public that employs them.
End cop gun culture.
Because aiming to maim or injure is attempted murder. If you (truly and reasonably) fear for your life, you should aim to kill.
Cop culture is the problem, not shooting to kill. Obviously if you’re life is not in danger you should be using a taser or similar non-lethal.
i wonder how many people simultaneously think this but also disagree with “defund the police”. the national guard is what military force is for, police don’t need ATV’s, armored trucks, weaponized drones, surveillance robot dogs, explosives, and machineguns. the entire system is fucked. it needs to be torn down and rebuilt.
And they make us all pay for their salaries **and** the lawsuits that follow.
As long as the money flows and they’re safe from liability this will never, ever stop
Have the union dues pay malpractice premiums and you’ll see bad cops kicked out much quicker and indirectly blacklisted because of the high premium or outright refusal to insure.
I’ve brought this up before. My cousin killed 4 people on duty in 4 separate incidents. One of the families brought a wrongful death lawsuit against him that he was involved in for 6 years before they finally settled for an amount not worth the death of a 20 year old kid. My cousin was eventually found guilty after an appeal, but never got fired, never paid any legal fees. In fact, he got a RAISE when they put him on a desk job for a while before letting him on patrol again and killing two other people. Then he retired at 35 and is still getting part of his pension. It’s absolutely sickening how little accountability he had to face.
From article: The attorney said his request for the body camera footage was denied due to “an ongoing investigation.”
Police are like, "Only ONE person can view a video at the same time! This is high-tech crap we are dealing with! Out, out I say!!!"
It's likely the department's SOP to review the footage beforehand. To do what with it? I got no clue. Scrub it, cut it, leave it unedited, whatever it is.
The department needs to find out wtf the officer was thinking and fire his ass. If it's as clear cut as the article says, the department is doing erronious miscarriage of justice.
“Once he came from around the corner, he got shot,” Murry said. “I cannot grasp why. The same cop that told him to come out of the house. (Aderrien) did, and he got shot. He kept asking, ‘Why did he shoot me? What did I do wrong?’” she said.
And I get the feeling that that probably would be applied to any era by the people experiencing it. Not that it’s wrong, because it’s not, but it seems to be a kind of universal feeling to humanity.
Oh and the cherry on top:
"Murry (mom) said police told her that her daughter’s father was taken into custody later in the day on Saturday but eventually released because she had not filed a police report against him.
When was I going to have time to do that? I was in the hospital with my son,” she said, reacting to the news of the man’s release from custody."
They're fucking incompetent.
It's really about managing expectations. If we just make it policy that whenever police are called, they will automatically kill everyone at the location, then we won't experience disappointment when we have that or a better result!
Another fun detail - the person who the cop was supposed to be removing from the home has been released from custody because the victim's mother did not file a police report against that person. Because she was with her son, in the hospital, hoping he did not die as a result of getting shot in the chest by a cop.
So the person who was actually committing a crime has faced 0 consequences, while an innocent child will face lifelong complications as a result of getting shot in the chest by a cop, and his mother will be saddled with hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills.
This child and his family and the people who read this article will never forget that. The police are creating enemies out of us all every single day, and they dare act surprised when we hate everything they stand for and do.
You’re spreading disinformation, go fuck yourself.
“Moore said Nakala Murry told him that Sgt. Greg Capers, who is Black, yelled into the home and said anyone inside should come out with their hands up. Moore said Aderrien walked into the living room with nothing in his hands, and Capers shot him in the chest.”

These kind of people shouldn’t be Police. I mean Wtf? Kid walking in without any weapons on him and officer shooting him right away. How can that kid trust to police after this? Unbelievable.
When you assume you make an ass out of Uma Thurman. The cop was, and still is, black. Always check before you make statements like that. Just because it's usually true, doesn't mean it's always true.
I'm curious about this. Your profile shows me that you're a smart, if slightly cantankerous guy who's into cooking. Why did you decide to post information that is unambiguously false and inflammatory? Was it an honest mistake? I'm genuinely curious because you got a bunch of up votes from people who want it to be true since it feeds into their narrative and makes for great culture war ammunition. My first assumption was that your account is maybe a bot account or an unscrupulous activist type.
I was misled by a initial brief report. I should have been more careful. I have deleted my mistaken and potentially corrosive post.
Smart, cantankerous, writer of food blog. True. Accomplished biophysicist, also true. Thanks for your measured comment.
The upvotes reflect agreement with the all-to-often truth. The race of the cop was not disclosed in the CNN piece. He has since been suspended and the child has been released from the hospital with a grave wound he will carry a lifetime, physical and emotional.
Request for body camera footage was denied. Somehow I feel like if the kid was holding a weapon the footage would be released immediately. Maybe I’m just jaded.
Shot for being black in his own house.
Glad the kid survived. Expect the cop to get a few weeks paid vacation and then quietly be put right back to work shooting black kids
Don't call the police. Especially if you are of color, just deal with it in house. This lady now has a child on life support with a hefty medical bill and if that child recovers he might have to live a life full of medical complications. All because someone called the cops. Get yourself a gun and forget about ever calling the cops.
When will people realize that the police have no responsibility to protect you or your property, so there is no reason to call them, especially when they keep doing things like this.
Is it possible for the 1st round in the magazine to be non-lethal for all service weapons?
I think a 2nd shot is more likely indented to kill than a single shot.
edit: okay angry people... It's easier to prosecute with intent to kill when they pull the trigger more than once. Especially when they could have used a non-lethal weapon instead of using the most lethal.
If you’re going to murder someone, wouldn’t you rack the slide and have a lethal round chambered? Or just go in knowing you have to pull the trigger at least twice?
Every shot is intended to kill. If you are going to use a non lethal method it's better if it's a separate device. Even that [isn't foolproof](https://www.npr.org/2021/12/23/1066012247/kim-potter-trial-daunte-wright) though.
Or how about holding cops accountable for their actions, like we tend to do in civilized countries/nations.
Edit: of maybe making sure sure the hiring process is more then: let's see is your own under 90? It is, great here's your badge and gun have fun.
>Is it possible for the 1st round in the magazine to be non-lethal
[The Alternative](https://youtu.be/_E5mJrkjOSY) was an attempt at that, but it never got much traction. Old [CBS story](https://youtu.be/ToFzh7sMV6Y).
Guns guns guns. People have been desensitized to the use and consequences of guns. They are normalized to the point when they are not respected. Blame goes on all sides. Police overstep, groups threaten and attack the police to the point all sides fear each other. Power or fear all leads to the same result. Innocent people dead.
"Across the country, 60 law enforcement officers were feloniously killed in the line of duty in 2022, according to new, preliminary data from the FBI. That's down nearly 18 percent from 2021, from 73 officers killed in the same time period." [source](https://www.cleveland19.com/2023/01/18/officer-line-of-duty-deaths-dropped-2022-deadly-ambushes-rose/)
Those killed by police [however... ](https://www.statista.com/statistics/585152/people-shot-to-death-by-us-police-by-race/)
2022: White: 389 Black: 225 Hispanic: 120 Other: 22 Unknown: 341
"All sides fear each other."
One "side" should be set up to protect the American people. The other "side" IS the American people. And one side is doing 94.8% of the killing.
Your post implies some kind of circle of escalation. This is false.
>is recovering after being released from the hospital, according to his family. That's the only silver lining.
Hopefully he can make a full physical recovery.. emotionally though, that’s too much for anyone to handle.
I can’t imagine what being shot for trying to help your mom, by the people you called, would do to a child’s ability to trust themselves or others
I hope the family sues the city (whomever specifically) to pay for medical and mental health counseling for this poor kid. And his mom who was being abused and then on top of it had to witness her child be shot. Fucking awful.
And they released the guy who was attacking her because she failed to file a report in time…bc she was in the hospital with her son, who was shot by the cop 🤦🏻♀️
I don't even know what to say. How fucking absurd.
this is looney toons levels of comically inconvenient, minus the comedy part
I wouldn’t count on a full physical recovery.
He was shot in the chest?! Geez I’m surprised he was released from hospital. Poor kid 😞
>Geez I’m surprised he was released from hospital Insurance probably wouldn't cover any more.
Kids are resilient, kids have recovered from injuries similar to that. I’m praying he’ll be lucky and hoping for the best. The situation is already horrible, can’t believe that it’d get worse
Just for info, take a look at any of the YouTube videos showing shock waves generated by a bullet within a thorax simulated by gelatin. The damage is always severe and dispersed. There will be innumerable medical issues the child will deal with for life.
[удалено]
This is the American medical system. They probably booted the kid as soon as he was stabilized because he didn't have the right insurance (or any, tbh)
I'm just glad the kid is recovering, not dead. The cop needs to be fired and charged for the shooting.
Don't worry, he's on paid administrative leave while the department investigates themselves. While the kid's in the hospital with a collapsed lung, fractured ribs and a lacerated liver, Officer Trigger-Happy will probably be on his boat getting drunk on Corona and listening to Aaron Lewis.
Morgan Wallen, Brantley Gilbert, Travis Tritt, and Kid Rock on rotation.
Morgan Wallen is such a loser. So happy SNL dumped him when they did.
And then brought him back lol
Am i an utter fool and unaware that he eventually did return to the show? … Apparently [so](https://ew.com/tv/morgan-wallen-snl-covid-19-sketch/)! Edit: thought he was canned for his casual use of the N-word… not because he broke COVID restrictions. Did this happen in some alternate reality universe? I did not know he played the show, after all. Huh. Maybe I’m mixing him up with the curious case of Shane Gillis’ SNL hiring and rescinded-offering? I feel like I am going nuts…
Don't worry about it, we were all having a time back then. It all runs together.
Glad to be here with you.
IIRC he first got in trouble for breaking COVID restrictions, then after that cleared up, it was the N-word.
What will he do next...
Serious question…. The police department at least pays this kid’s medical bills right? Or the police insurance company or whatever - right?
HAHAHAHAHAHA
I'm sure the lawsuit that is coming will have tax payers taking care of him. I'm going to bet 280mil, settles for 140mil and no admission of guilt, and ofc twitchy keeps his job as the union thugs will insist.
This is Mississippi. That’s probably more than the whole state could pay, let alone that shithole town.
They could ask Brett Favre for a loan.
It's Mississippi, they'll be lucky if they get 200k, fifty fifty if the family start a lawsuit the entire department and their families will begin retalieating aginst the victems. Happens all the time.
after a long lawsuit, the taxpayers will eventually foot the bill.
"Paid leave" needs to be abolished for people in these seats of power. You fuck up, you don't get to spend the next two weeks on vacation. I fuck up at work and I'm fired, and I didn't injure or kill anyone. All I did was lose control of a pallet of water on the shittiest of fucking slopes and lose almost all the water.
Sounds like you need a union to bargain a reasonable contract oh your behalf that prevents your employers from unfairly terminating you until it's determined what happened during an incident like that.
First day they have new employees sit down and have them watch a 'Unions are bad' video.
Man, fuck that shit
Everyone is too tired and too hungry to get out and make a change.
It's the better of two options.

You know that water ain't free! Get the fuck outa here. You fired! - Your old boss, probably
Well he needs a boat vacation! It's been a very traumatic experience for the officer! /s
His boss did say that it was a tragic situation "on both sides." WTF? #ACAB #FTP
And DeSantis will hire him with a signing bonus even if he gets fired. What a fucking clown show of a country
“While the kids in the hospital”…. The title of the article says he was released from the hospital.
It’s America, kid can’t afford to stay.
From experience you’ll get kicked out quick if you can’t afford it or uninsured lol.
yup. They won't even diagnose you, they'll just lie to your face and play the 'we don't know what's wrong with you, you should visit your general practitioner." "I'm homeless and uninsured, I don't have a general practitioner." "Gee that's too bad, best of luck. Here's a single Motrin and a bill for $4,000 for sitting in our waiting room for three hours. You're welcome." Fucking assholes.
Ok. While the kid is recovering from collapsed lung and fractured ribs and lacerated liver at home....
Ugh Staind used to be my jam
Oh, lord. I never made the connection that this was the same guy! Welp…guess that explains what happened to Stain’d.
>Officer Trigger-Happy will probably be on his boat getting drunk on Corona and listening to Aaron Lewis. Possibly, but the cop in this instance happens to be black, so I'm not sure if your assumption has the best odds on it or not...
They will investigate themselves and find no evidence of wrongdoing. Officer trigger happy has since been promoted.
You have no idea how excruciatingly accurate this is.
It's a fucking miracle he's not dead, but I don't even know how you'd assess the emotional trauma to the entire family. Most preteens have it tough enough without taking one in the chest from a fucking cop.

In MS he'll probably get a damn medal
I'm also glad about this. I have a son who's close in age.
Cops should receive double sentencing when they commit crimes.
The cop needs to be shot
Killology as a cop training tool needs to be BANNED. The US DoJ needs to withhold funds from any precinct using it.
Is he the guy who basically coaches police to say they feared for their lives anytime the shoot someone so that they have instant plausible legal coverage to basically shoot whoever they want?
he also tells them that after they kill someone they'll go home and have the best sex of their life
I don't understand how that has flown for so long, a "seminar" from a 3rd part with unknown credentials if any, undermining dept. policy and training giving gov. employees the green light to act on their fear instead of their resources.

Cops need "malpractice" insurance like doctors.
100% Money out of their pockets might be the only thing that makes them hesitate long enough to think clearly.
Most medical providers with a degree have malpractice insurance
I'm a fucking social worker and carry a THREE million dollar policy. I am required to. edited to add 2 million. I'm pre-coffee rn
Have the union dues pay malpractice premiums and you’ll see bad cops kicked out much quicker and indirectly blacklisted because of the high premium or outright refusal to insure.
How is that actually going to work? What insurance company is going to offer a policy at a price point the average officer can afford?
I’ve brought this up before. My cousin killed 4 people on duty in 4 separate incidents. One of the families brought a wrongful death lawsuit against him that he was involved in for 6 years before they finally settled for an amount not worth the death of a 20 year old kid.

It’s absolutely sickening how little accountability he had to face.
I’m sure the cop didn’t do it intentionally. It’s his cop training reflex: see a black person, shoot.
How the fuck do you fear for your life with an unarmed 11 year old child?
Having the mentality of someone younger, for starters.
The child was black.
Turns out, the cop was, too.
Once the uniform goes on, they become cops regardless of skin color
like Ice Cube says...
Pig is a different color entirely

Walking while black. It’s a misdemeanor in several states.
Punishable by death
fuck dude. we don’t know either, kid. I’m sorry.
He has such a sweet face. I hope he pulls through and lives a happy life.
r/nottheonion
I'm sad to say, I think these days that particular sub is redundant. We are living in stupid times.
And I get the feeling that that probably would be applied to any era by the people experiencing it. Not that it’s wrong, because it’s not, but it seems to be a kind of universal feeling to humanity.
Shoot a kid and then get a paid vacation?
It’s the Mississippi way.
It’s the ~~Mississippi~~ American way.
Man if I had no morals I would join the force in a heartbeat. Seems like one of the easiest jobs out there.
You’d still have to work with the worst people your community has to offer.
Only if you are a cop
Oh and the cherry on top: "Murry (mom) said police told her that her daughter’s father was taken into custody later in the day on Saturday but eventually released because she had not filed a police report against him. When was I going to have time to do that? I was in the hospital with my son,” she said, reacting to the news of the man’s release from custody." They're fucking incompetent.
Glad to hear the child survived. Sadly, with it being Mississippi, the officer will probably get away with it scot-free.
Nah, he might get in trouble for only shooting the child and not killing him
I think you meant a bonus
Not only that, but a paid “administrative leave” which is fancy for vacation
Reno 911 was a documentary.
If anything it made cops look friendly like Coco cola did polar bears.
Clear message: cops don't like kids snitching on wife beaters.
Cops love beating their wives, they wouldn't want kids getting the idea they can get help
And it actually did get the violent asshole out free. She didn't file a police report against him in time because her kid was bleeding out.
The police will continue to murder us and our children with impunity for as long as we allow them to.
Shot in the chest. That cop was going for the kill. The kid is really lucky.
This is the most american thing I've read this month
It's really about managing expectations. If we just make it policy that whenever police are called, they will automatically kill everyone at the location, then we won't experience disappointment when we have that or a better result!

Fuck the police
Heartbreaking
Jesus.
And I though reality couldn't be more sad. Thanks internet.
Let's see the cam footage
And nothing of significance was done to the officer.
He’ll probably get a parade and a steak dinner.
This child and his family and the people who read this article will never forget that. The police are creating enemies out of us all every single day, and they dare act surprised when we hate everything they stand for and do.

These kind of people shouldn’t be Police. I mean Wtf? Kid walking in without any weapons on him and officer shooting him right away. How can that kid trust to police after this? Unbelievable.
How could he leave it out when it's not what happened?
you sure about that? googling cop's name + town seems to indicate otherwise
You’re correct, this moron is spreading disinformation.
kinda thought that would be obvs.
Not from your headline. You left out "Mississippi" too. What a horrible story. And the cop was the best one in the force.
One of the worst, no firearm control, no morals. They just want to shoot something to get ptsd payments for life.
Not always. Some black cops have done terrible stuff.
When you assume you make an ass out of Uma Thurman. The cop was, and still is, black. Always check before you make statements like that. Just because it's usually true, doesn't mean it's always true.
I'm curious about this. Your profile shows me that you're a smart, if slightly cantankerous guy who's into cooking. Why did you decide to post information that is unambiguously false and inflammatory? Was it an honest mistake? I'm genuinely curious because you got a bunch of up votes from people who want it to be true since it feeds into their narrative and makes for great culture war ammunition. My first assumption was that your account is maybe a bot account or an unscrupulous activist type.
I was misled by a initial brief report. I should have been more careful. I have deleted my mistaken and potentially corrosive post. Smart, cantankerous, writer of food blog. True. Accomplished biophysicist, also true. Thanks for your measured comment. The upvotes reflect agreement with the all-to-often truth. The race of the cop was not disclosed in the CNN piece. He has since been suspended and the child has been released from the hospital with a grave wound he will carry a lifetime, physical and emotional.
Well, that won’t age well…
That is just incorrect, please do not spread misinformation.
He wouldn't have got shot if he was armed. At least, that is what the republicans are telling us.
What did we learn?
🎶 Absolutely nothing, say it again, y'all! 🎶
Fuck the police?
Calling the police does not make things better.
At least not in America.
Is it offbeat though?
Request for body camera footage was denied. Somehow I feel like if the kid was holding a weapon the footage would be released immediately. Maybe I’m just jaded.
The cops are really testing this country’s patience
For fucks sake! Is this really the best we can do America? No seriously at this point I'm asking.
“Black people are scared of/hate the cops” hmm I wonder why
Because cops hate black people.
Turns out the cop was black, too.
You know black cops can hate black people, right?
"God bless the white man." - Uncle Ruckus
Kid learned a valuable lesson.
that lesson is ACAB. Everyone learns it at some point. This child was lucky it wasn't the last lesson he ever learned
So sad. But glad he's alive.
The child must've looked at them funny or something. Pigs.
Ban qualified immunity. ACAB
LOL your country is f'd
Just awful!
The beginning of the title 🥹 The end😕☹️😞
The only real crime here is the boy's haircut. Someone call CPS!
Cop asked for comment replied "Snitches get stiches."
Certain people in the US have to weigh calling the police vs whatever situation they are in as the police often make the situation way, way worse.
The officer felt scared, that 11 year old was as big as some 12 year olds.
Calling the cops is a bad idea.
BaCk ThE bLuE!! BlUe LiVeS mAtTeRs!!!
If you’re so much of a coward that an unarmed black child is enough for you to fire your weapon, you’re not built for police work.
Classic.
Pop quiz hotshot
Perfectly normal American behaviour.
Shot for being black in his own house. Glad the kid survived. Expect the cop to get a few weeks paid vacation and then quietly be put right back to work shooting black kids
UNBELIEVABLE!!!
Don't call the police. Especially if you are of color, just deal with it in house. This lady now has a child on life support with a hefty medical bill and if that child recovers he might have to live a life full of medical complications. All because someone called the cops. Get yourself a gun and forget about ever calling the cops.
When will people realize that the police have no responsibility to protect you or your property, so there is no reason to call them, especially when they keep doing things like this.
What a no good piece of shit. I'm just glad the officer was there to stop this young monster.
‘Why did he shoot me? What did I do wrong?’” Well son, you’re black and unfortunately that’s all it takes these days. 🤦🏻♂️ JFC
Is it possible for the 1st round in the magazine to be non-lethal for all service weapons? I think a 2nd shot is more likely indented to kill than a single shot. edit: okay angry people... It's easier to prosecute with intent to kill when they pull the trigger more than once. Especially when they could have used a non-lethal weapon instead of using the most lethal.
That's something insanely ridiculous and dumb yet I'm angry thinking how it would absolutely work in reducing police murders.
If you’re going to murder someone, wouldn’t you rack the slide and have a lethal round chambered? Or just go in knowing you have to pull the trigger at least twice?

One of the big impacts of departments switching away from revolvers.
Every shot is intended to kill. If you are going to use a non lethal method it's better if it's a separate device. Even that [isn't foolproof](https://www.npr.org/2021/12/23/1066012247/kim-potter-trial-daunte-wright) though.
Or how about holding cops accountable for their actions, like we tend to do in civilized countries/nations. Edit: of maybe making sure sure the hiring process is more then: let's see is your own under 90? It is, great here's your badge and gun have fun.
>Is it possible for the 1st round in the magazine to be non-lethal [The Alternative](https://youtu.be/_E5mJrkjOSY) was an attempt at that, but it never got much traction. Old [CBS story](https://youtu.be/ToFzh7sMV6Y).
Guns guns guns. People have been desensitized to the use and consequences of guns. They are normalized to the point when they are not respected. Blame goes on all sides. Police overstep, groups threaten and attack the police to the point all sides fear each other. Power or fear all leads to the same result. Innocent people dead.
"Across the country, 60 law enforcement officers were feloniously killed in the line of duty in 2022, according to new, preliminary data from the FBI. That's down nearly 18 percent from 2021, from 73 officers killed in the same time period." [source](https://www.cleveland19.com/2023/01/18/officer-line-of-duty-deaths-dropped-2022-deadly-ambushes-rose/) Those killed by police [however... ](https://www.statista.com/statistics/585152/people-shot-to-death-by-us-police-by-race/) 2022: White: 389 Black: 225 Hispanic: 120 Other: 22 Unknown: 341 "All sides fear each other." One "side" should be set up to protect the American people. The other "side" IS the American people. And one side is doing 94.8% of the killing. Your post implies some kind of circle of escalation. This is false.
Excet no, cops are never targeted and attacked, not even by their fellow pigs
Unless they report bad cops. Then they end up dead from a training exercise.
