i'm not even going to watch a video, but to think a 12 year old would engage in a live shootout with a grown ass cop is preposterous as a motherfukker. I'm sure the white supremacists are already finding ways to rationalize this wild black youth being put down. :pacspit:
more importantly, they want to imply we're so stupid, we'd reach for fake guns for that supposed shootout.

The 'Go
A couple things...

Before coming into this thread I was ready to say the cops will get off for the sole reason Tamir clearly grabbed the gun from his waistband.

But...

A poster brought up a point that Tamir maybe had no idea who this was the police. They had no lights on and their markings the cop car are minimal.

Also, the angle and speed that they came at him, maybe put Tamir's mind in a place of self defense, which is why he grabs the BB gun.
He didn't even have time to grab for his BB gun, he was shot immediately.

Hmmm.....finally watched the video......

I'm gonna try my best to be impartial/unbiased here......

I gotta say, that did go down much faster than I expected :patrice:.....like everyone else, I was thinking by the cops' account, there was like a short 5 to 10-second-long standoff after the cops pulled up to him and exited the car, before they shot him.....

But the video still doesn't necessarily disprove what the cops said :yeshrug:....here's what I see:

Kid was clearly sitting at the table, then got up just before the cop car approached him.

Can't really see in the video exactly what he's doing as he's getting up from the table....so you can't say for sure whether or not he picked up the gun and put it away at his waist at this point, like the cops claimed he did...

Then the kid slowly walked up to where the car pulled up. He didn't try to run away, or nervously shuffled/moved around. He took 2 more calm steps forward, just as the car stopped in front of him.....like he was actually trying to approach them. That part I found weird :patrice:......

Lil man looked like he was holding/pointing the gun with his right hand earlier in the video. Now look at the movement of his right arm after he gets up from the table, just before he got shot. Despite the grainy video, it's easy to see how his arms were moving around this time (due to the torso of his shirt being white, and arms being black)......

One second, both of his arms are up nearly to his chest, almost like he was clasping his hands together in front of him for some reason (his right arm is at a right angle)......

The next second, he lowers his right arm and brings it back, and his right hand is near his waist.....keep in mind he's doing this as he calmly walks up to the car.....

The very next second, after he's in front of the car, his right arm is raised up and bent even more, near his side......his right hand raised up from his waist.....like he just pulled something from his waist with it, and was lifting it up with his right hand....:lupe:

The very next second after that.....he's down...:wow:

Questions for the cops, though:

Why did they drive right up to someone who they thought had a real gun? :what:

And how did they see him pick up the gun and put it in his waist while he was at the table? He did that about 5 seconds before they pulled up. Even if they were parked just off-screen at the time, that's still at least about 40 feet away from the boy....

As for the warning they claimed they gave the kid to put his hands up.....I tried to say "put your hands up" 3 times, between the time the car pulled up in front of the kid, and the time the kid got shot......it can be done, but you'd have to say it pretty fast (which could've been the case in what they saw as a high-risk situation; also they claimed the car door was already open as they said it)....of course, there's no audio to tell whether or not they actually warned him....

This shyt is really sad, though.....no matter what you believe went down......

Why would they drive literally right up on someone they thought had a gun?

He was shot before the cop was even out the car. Like within 2 seconds of them arriving.

Cop said he told him to drop it 3x before firing. How was that possible when he shot him before he was even out his car?

If you tell a child to "drop the gun," which is not in his hand, then he is going to reach for it to drop the fukkin' gun like you asked.

Yup another cop murder. This time it was a child.
