Police Officers should calm situations down, not incite them. If these officers weren't woefully incompetent at their jobs then they could have ended this situation peacefully without violence but, as usual with these ****ing terrible muderous officers that give the rest of the force a bad name, they went in all guns blazing.

Where does all this assessment time come from when a guy pulls a gun on you? It might be dark, he might be tall, how can you tell he's a child? It's a realistic looking weapon do you have time to wonder is it real or fake? I don't think you are considering the reality of those kinds or situations. It's far from clear cut and the colour of his skin is probably the last thing on the officers mind, he's probably looking down the barrel of that gun.
