No, naughty cops, just shoot adults who want to kill you, and only male adults |

He had a job to do, police officers are trained to asses situations and assess how dangerous the person in question is, at this point he saw someone waving a gun around, it doesn't make a difference if it is a child or not, so he reacted in the way that they are trained to do. I can't imagine this cop being happy to feel the need to kill a child, but under his oath to serve and protect, that is what he felt he needed to do and now he has to live the rest of his life knowing that he killed a child who was idiotically branding a fake gun, made to look like a real one, because he was doing as he was trained to do. |

Yes but sadly children with guns have killed Police in America |

The gun was not real, the officer was warned but for some reason they are now saying he wasnt, the CHILD was not even a teenager. |
At the end of the day, police officers like the one in this story are using guns as a first resort when they should only be used in life or death situations. They're firing first and asking questions later which is leading to a lot of innocent lives being lost.
If this child murderer was even somewhat competent at his job he would have assessed the situation, not go in guns blazing. Having restraint in this situation wouldn't have led to the officer having a child's blood on their hands. If he can't remain calm and thus calm down a situation without having to kill someone then he shouldn't be a police officer in the first place. |

Just because the person involved was a child, does not make them any less dangerous than anyone else, a child with a gun, is just as dangerous as a grown up with a gun. |

And I still don't get why he didn't use a tazor instead. I just read this on another article
"On social media, commentators noted the irony of police shooting a boy with a replica gun in Ohio -- one of several US states where openly carrying a firearm is legal." |

This is a good quote from that article though : “The police have to address these things in the proper context,” he said. “This is a 12-year-old boy. This is not a grown man. I’d think you would handle situations with children differently than you would with an adult. They don’t fully understand everything that is going on.” |

Jeff Follmer, president of the Cleveland Police Patrolmen's Association, said the officers were not told the caller thought the gun might be fake. He said an officer taking a Taser out when they believe there could be a person with a gun puts the officer at risk, the Plain Dealer reported. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...-boy/19471925/ |

I think people often forget how dangerous America can be sometimes. It wasn't too long ago that there was those cases of people literally eating people alive in public. A police officer was even attacked in one of those events. I'm not comparing those events, but I'm just using it as an example to show what kind of craziness goes on in America. I definitely agree with those saying the gun laws are crazy... It's true. They need to have a hell of a lot stricter policies put in place. |

to be fair the call came in from an old man across the street so i would imagine the call to the patrol was vague and loaded with "proceed with caution" I would imagine the cops have had many "he is a juvenile" calls only to be met with a 240 pound 6 foot 2 adult |

His actions are indefensible. If you're going to accuse me of trolling then I'm going to say this. Would you be defending this man if he killed a white child? |
..it seems odd that the old guy who made the call and was across the street could have assessed that the gun could have been a fake but a trained police officer couldn't...

12 year old Boy shot dead for carrying a fake gun
Quote:
Mm very good point, I think I read somewhere that the cop was a rookie, I wonder would a more seasoned cop have been so quick to pull the trigger? |
