@RoadieKeith@Chromatic_Blue@TheRickyDavila @RoArquette Well, he was armed. That isnβt debatable. But the picture going around of the kid with his hands clearly up is a picture from after the shit was already fired. If you watch the video in slow motion and see when the shit was fired he had not clearly put his hands up at the time.
@GWNL_Elf@Chromatic_Blue@RoadieKeith@TheRickyDavila @RoArquette So in less than one second you expect a human being to interpret that a kid is dropping his gun instead of turning to shoot it at you? The unrealistic standards that some people want... I swear. Kid got shot because he pulled a gun after running from the cop. What do you expect?
@lavalleygirly@Chromatic_Blue@RoadieKeith@TheRickyDavila @RoArquette βAccording to prosecutors, the teenager was with a 21-year-old man, Ruben Roman, who had just fired a gun at a passing car. The gunfire drew police to the area, resulting in the deadly confrontation.β https://t.co/gcLcQseach
@Chromatic_Blue@RoadieKeith@TheRickyDavila @RoArquette It isnβt semantics. They had already aimed and fired this weapon at people moments before the police showed up. They have no benefit of the doubt. And yes, the gun had been dropped while the officer was in the act of shooting. Officer clearly didnβt have time to see it dropped.
@Chromatic_Blue@RoadieKeith@TheRickyDavila @RoArquette According to the police report this gun had been used in a shooting of a passing car moments before the cops showed up. How much time has to pass between pointing the gun at someone before we decide to wait for them to point it again?
@Chromatic_Blue@RoadieKeith@TheRickyDavila @RoArquette Alright. So you want the officer to wait to be shot at before firing. Fair enough. I am glad you stated that, most people wouldnβt. Itβs a ridiculous opinion, but an opinion nonetheless.
