Lets assume this had been a real gun and the kid ended up putting a bullet into someone there. Then you idiots saying the cops were wrong would be bitching about why the cops didnt put this kid down the minute he pointed the gun at the cops.

This is the kind of stuff I love about some of you outposters...

Even though this exact point has been brought up a few time sin the thread - you still just gotta stick to it and rehash it - even tough you KNOW it's gonna make you look colossally stupid.

lets assume it had been your kid shot while holding a pellet gun


lets assume it wasnt a kid at all but a 500lb gorilla with a ninja sword. then they could have wheeled in a tank and it would have been justifiable to smash in the front wall of the school.


we can "assume" and "what if" a justification for any rash actions.
while back here in reality the cops had 20 mins to shoot the kid multiple times with beanbags, tazers, mace, etc before they pumped him full of lead, dirty harry style.
im willing to bet the kid couldnt imagine being taken seriously because he knew it was only a pellet gun and would have probably shat his pants had they blasted him with a bean bag or two before filling him with lead.
then they could have taken him to jail and handed him a death sentence in the electric chair and let him die properly

What amazes me is people like Cawlin and just a few others can see that what transpired was the right thing at the time during the circumstances. But yet in hind-sight KNOWING ALL OF THE INFORMATION they can't admit that something ain't right with the procedural status-quo...


That's some die hard dogmatism right there...

what if the kid had a machine gun that shot daisys?

what if his penis looked like a pellet gun that looked like a real gun?

lets assume he had a turban and an ak47, ok?
then its totally justified to shoot him for anything
