Serious Frolicking posted:he was a black child in baltimore. it would be incredibly strange if he didnt run from the police, given the baltimore pd's documented enthusiasm for shooting black children. the bb gun just gave them the vague excuse necessary to shoot him in the back. carrying a gun is not a crime punishable by death, carrying a toy gun is not a crime at all and it would never have happened to a white kid. I do not know about Baltimore but carrying an airsoft gun is some kind of crime here in NYC. Kind of understandable as muggers use them frequently. Or if they are in a group have one real gun but have everyone else carry fake ones.

deep impact on vhs posted:http://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2016/04/27/city-police-investigating-officer-involved-shooting/ thats sad and awful. I am going to sound like a massive dick but the kid shouldn't have run. I get why he did run and the officer is still a stupid rear end in a top hat for shooting him. idk everything is poo poo.

Like if he's running away why shoot, like if the kid turned and aimed at them as a joke you would have to say well that was the joke that killed you, shithead but if hes running away it seems like more of a chase him situation. I don't get yankees.

Who still sells/makes toys that look like that? Why are people suing gun companies when a product sold legally to children indirectly causes their death?

I'm not saying the cop should have shot, but the fact it was actually a toy is irrelevant.

The Chinee make and sell em so probably cant sure the companies. I've got a pretty realistic looking airsoft gun that would probaly get me shot by the police even though im white. luckily instead of running around with it out in the streets i leave it in a drawer and just take it out to shoot at the drat pigeons that keep laying eggs on my balcony when they come by...

quote:This comes just days after it was announced that the city of Cleveland will pay $6 million to settle the lawsuit filed by the family of 12-year-old Tamir Rice, who was shot and killed by an officer in that city in 2014. Rice was playing with a pellet gun at the time. well at least there's some justice

I don't get yankees. Courts have determined lethal force is justified if a (presumably) armed person is fleeing because they could just be going for a better position or something. If the kid had dropped the "gun" it would have been more dicey, unless they had reason to suspect he had another gun. Yanks live in a country where guns are everywhere, so police have the benefit of the doubt in a lot of situations. Limiting access to guns needs to happen before we can safely downgrade police responses to potential threats.

I don't even know if you're talking about Carl Winslow or Al Powell because both actually had traumatic police experiences although I think Carl's was not stopping someone from getting shot right?
