Too many trigger happy cops. Too many stupid kids. I have guns and I know how to use them properly. Kids are dumb, adults are supposed to know that.

My thoughts:

Kid shouldn't have had a replica, much less waved it about in public with the orange rim off. That's just asking for trouble. Maybe he didn't know any better, maybe his parents/carers should have kept a closer eye.

The cop seemed to have acted too hastily and wasn't well enough informed on the context of the situation. As a result, he followed self defence procedure and ended the life of a kid who was messing around with a fake gun.

A terrible accident that could have been avoided with some common sense being practiced on both sides.

@comicsrulebutdbzdoes2: Living here, you don't often hear stories like this (compared to in America). It does happen but I wouldn't say that it's common.

Presented a what appeared at the time, gun, to officers in the manner where gang bangers are known to keep their gun located.

I probably would of shot the kid too.

It's a damn shame.

An individual points a gun at a police officer.

Police officer shoots said individual.

What's the commotion? 99.9% of police officers on the planet with weapons would have shot that kid.

Anyone with a gun probably would shoot the kid.

I don't think the cop would want to risk the boy's opportunity to shoot at him/her by using a taser, especially with the stories of kids accidentally killing people at firing ranges. Still the blame is on both sides.

Why always with the kill shot. Aim for the arms and legs every once in a while.

Its a lot easier said than done. In a high stress environment you always aim for the biggest target, which is the chest.

You aim for arms and legs:

a. you miss and kill someone else by mistake,

b. you hit, the bullet goes straight through the limb and you kill someone else by mistake,

c. you take the extra fraction of a second to aim at the smaller target, and the other guy gets the first shot off.

There are some areas in the United States where kids carry guns. You can blame that on the drug dealers & gang members who made it possible. I'm not saying the shooting was justified, but guns don't usually give second chances & hesitation just might get you killed.

I'm not really shocked by any of this except what was the kid thinking? Considering that cops are quick to kill people that don't have guns, having a fake gun will only ensure a death sentence. And when dealing with cops, its safer to assume the cop wants to kill you and therefore try not to make any kind of movement around him.
