1:17, thats a cell phone being raised bruhs.
Now the questions is this. Why are people not smart enough to know you dont put anything that close to another mans face. let alone a white cop with a gun. But that doesnt change the fact, taht what he raised surely looked like a cell phone since you can see the cell phone light. he was trying to record the cop it seems. and you know how some people get when they are recording cops. they get all extra brave, "yeah , i'm recording you pig. thats right, we got you on tape..."
i've seen one too many times on youtube. i still remember a black dude recording and ended up getting his dog shot up. even though he should've recorded it but he was doing a bit too much. like i said, acting all extra. just record the footage and shut up. and dont put the phone in the cops face like that. and i will say this as fast as the cop moved and fell. he was afraid. but that doesnt give him the right to shoot someone and then not call the medics in time is even worse.
what may have happened with the gun is this. he may have stolen or taken a relatives gun without them knowing. and had it on his person. but thats not what he raised up to the cops face. or it surely doesnt look like it. it looks like a cell phone.
So they are telling partial truths. yes there was a gun. yes he was armed. but he never pointed the gun at anyone. No, the officer did not see a gun. therefore the officer never knew he was armed.So he shot him out of fear.
Very plausible.
