No, i'm mad a Mother only had 12 years to spend with her child before he was taken away. Before he had a chance to graduate, to attend College, to have a family, to explore the world. I'm mad he was murdered so callously by Officers who KNEW how young he was and could've attempted other methods to subdue him, if neccassary.

He was 12 man. That's just insane.

But a sociopath with pale skin can go shoot up a school full of students or shoot a senator and come out alive. smh

He was 12..... ****ing 12 years old... He was a baby...

How much you wanna bet this cop doesn't get indicted either?
Everything about this justice system and racism that protects only white people just makes me so pissed off

Only 12?

He probably pulled it out cause he was scared and wanted to show them it was fake

But still why would anyone be put in public waving around a gun like that in public?

If the boy were white the cops would've been like "Come on billy boy lets take you home to your mother". But since he was black, the only option was execution.

You said it yourself, he's 12. Young children don't have full capabilities of thinking rationally as their brains are not as fully developed as an adult's. In short, they make stupid decisions.

Wow guise.

This is kinda the whole truth.

I'm sure if he were white the police wouldn't have shot and killed him like you all are saying. This is just...we need better gun laws, for the public and the police

Horrible situation. Obviously I think the cop moved WAY too fast. I feel like he could have done more to diffuse the situation.

On the other hand the kid was waving a weapon at people, and that was never going to end well for him.

Scandal & Media

So terrible. RIP.

I remember not too long ago some deranged (white) man was in a park with a REAL loaded weapon pointing it at people but surprise, surprise he got nicely placed in the back of a police car.

Not everyday racism. But poor kid.

The cold hard truth.

Yes, the kid was playing, nobody can say otherwise. The cops arrived then you can't see what the kid was saying or doing but it doesn't matter it was a fake gun, but the cop didn't know.

I don't think this was about race at all
