What happened to erring on the side of caution?
Seriously...
It's not like the cop was a member of a SWAT team goin in to bust up some Waco crazies or anything - he's an over glorified hall monitor for Christ Sakes...
WTF is wrong with our society - capping kids in hallways at school....

What's wrong with our society is we have far too many idiots who think police officers are psychic and obviously just know when a gun that looks absolutely real, isn't.

Which they failed to do.
A fifteen year old kid is dead because the cops acted poorly and made bad decisions.
I just ran someone down with my car. Splattered his head all over.
Its ok though cause he might have turned out to be a mass murderer or child rapist someday.
What if is a bad excuse for violent actions.

So you believe all Police officers that are patrolling middle schools are walking on egg shells everyday just wondering when they are going to get taken out???
Come the eff on man...

Wrong, a fifteen year old kid is dead because HE acted poorly and made bad decisions.

Do you ever bother to inform yourself about the situation before you flip out?
News flash for the clue impaired (that means you by the way): The police were called to the school because he was roaming around the halls with a gun in his hand.

blah blah blah
I am not really commenting on this particular incident - I agree the kid was dumb and his death is a result of his dumbness - case closed.
But I am talking about our reaction as a society to crap like this... So the EFF what if they were called in because of blah blah blah...
So a 7/11 dot head calls the police because some 8 year old is stealing a candy bar and puts it in his pocket in such a way that it looks like he might have a gun... Do that gives the cops the right to blast the little kid into next week???

Only if he reaches for it.
What if, cop driving down the road, sees a man with a gun. He acreaches to a hault and fills him full of lead.
Then realises he was standing in the parking kot if the gun store and the gun wasn't even loaded. Oh well. His own stupidity for not using a gun bag....
