Yea, that is the point. He should have never had the guns like that, it was asking for trouble, for anybody. But being a minority, you won't get the same kind of trouble.That's the exact scenario that went on inside my head. I don't believe for one second that the police gave him a chance to put down the guns
. Yea, kid should've been way more smarter, but had he been someone else we all know he would've been talked down until they realized what was what.
But at this point, pointing out these severe double standards is really useless because our reality won't ever change
If the gun looks as realistic as everyone else is saying and he had it in his hand, and he turned towards them like I saw in someone's post.....then
It's unfortunate that he lost his life, but at some point you have to lay SOME blame on him. Even the most "fukk the police" ass nikka on here has to admit that a teen carrying around a realistic-looking assault rifle in his hand in public is just asking to cause some sort of trouble.....at that age, your ass should know exactly how people are gonna think/react when they see you walking around with some shyt that looks real. Then to not immediately drop the weapon as soon as the cops approach you and tell you to.....
We JUST had a 14-year-old murk a teacher, so let's not act like some of these kids can't/won't kill. It's possible. It's reality. Can't blame the cops for being scared that he might have shot them (assuming their version of the story is accurate)
You already have nikkas in here saying "they should have tried talking to him first"......be real. You see a bold-ass teen walking around in public with what appeared to be a gun; you gonna approach him? You gonna try to just "talk to him"?Or are you gonna carry your ass the hell away because you know what he's capable of doing?
The only thing the cops needed to do was take out their own guns, aim and tell him to drop his weapon, which they apparently did. If he didn't drop it after that, and even worse, turned toward them while still holding it......
Cant feel bad for a 13 year old? This world is fukked..
Get the fukk out of here with that bullshyt. This young man was walking around with a realistic replica of an ASSAULT WEAPON. If you are a cop or even a regular citizen you don't know if that weapon is real or not. You don't know what his mind state is in this day and age.
And you emotional, liberal weaklings are sitting here telling me they should have walked up to him casually and said "hey lil buddy is that a real AK?".....in this day and age where the criminals are getting younger and more sadistic? As far as i'm concerned for that young man think it was appealing to carry an assault weapon in public showed he had a mind state that made him a public safety danger or a potential danger later on in his development. No harm, no foul committed on the play.
This post would make a lot more sense if Zimmerman was believed to be brazenly carrying his gun IN HAND while in public
