I get it, just because they wear a uniform, they can do no wrong. Ok, got it.

The kid was wrong. He was shot and killed because he used poor judgment. If he'd not have had the pellet pistol, he'd probably be alive today.

With that said, I personally believe the cops could have brought him down without killing him. It's apparent that most of y'all don't believe the cops were able to render a logical call on this.

Recently, a black teenager (burglary suspect) was cornered by police. Cool, cops got their man.

What happened next went too far. But in y’alls eyes, the cops had a right to take it that far. Afterall, the kid ran from them.

After cuffing the teenager, on his belly, arms behind him, several officers holding him down, began punching and kicking the kid.

The union first attempted to cover for the cops, that is until....

...they found a camera mounted on a building nearby that caught it all.

Don’t be such a ass....

Your 2 instances are not alike.

God help you if YOU or yours are caught up in such a situation.

You will never be able to replace the wardrobe you will soil.
