..I'm sure that many police officers are killed but so sometimes are innocent people as well and when that happens, a police officer should be as accountable as any other member of the public...it seems odd that he had been 'waving' this gun all afternoon and yet only one call was made by an old guy who didn't sound panicked at all to me..where were all of the panic calls from the other people passing and in the playpark who felt he was a threat and going to hurt someone...there is no mention of any so I presume they didn't happen...the public seemed to have 'assessed' that he didn't appear to be a threat and that they weren't in danger and the caller even said that he thought it was probably a fake gun...and yet two trained police officers within seconds had 'assessed' that he was indeed a threat and shot to kill..?...even though he wasn't because it was a child with a fake gun...I really don't see where the law was enforced there at all or where the public were made safe from a threat that didn't exist....
