USA Police Shots and Kill Another Black Teenager, Antonio Martin In Ferguson (Page 2)

they pointed a gun at the officer. why
what if the officer was gunned down
so he has to protect himself
the officer has got family to live for too
if the teenager was unarmed ...bad... but he was armed and dangerous

You are all here saying trash.
It is either American police are racist or are ill trained.There are several cases of whites in the USA fighting hand to hand with police and nothing like shooting or killings occur,but let it be on a case of black citizen to a white police,the revers will always be the case.
Even if a black citizen is pointing a gun @ a police man,a well trained police would immediately "SHOOT @ THE LEGS" and not on other delicate parts of the body..These police are nothing but trailer loads of cowards,illiterates and racist.

When you become a police, try shooting the leg and don't kill. Now I see that you want to change the Rules of Engagement (ROE). This case is very clear, the kid was armed he pointed a gun at the police, the police shot him and killed. The ROE of the police is quite clear just like the military guys at the battlefront "if you must shoot, shoot to kill" There is danger in doing otherwise, this is not a matter of white or black, a police that did not shoot to kill may loose his or her life in return. Remember this cop is somebody's husband, somebody's father, somebody 's son, somebody's in-law, somebody's uncle etc.
