Dr.Henry_Killinger said: See above, saying a child won a Darwin Award is disgusting. You don't know anything about this kid and yet you think he's old enough to know better? Kids are stupid, clearly he was goofing off in the wrong place at the wrong time, doesn't mean he won a Darwin Award, its not like children will be born smarter cause a kid died making a stupid mistake. have some empathy. Also there is nothing to doubt, the vids are all right there. |
Well you tell me what the most politically correct way is to say that 12 years is old enough to recognize that a gun being pointed at you means your life is in danger, and to understand that police are authority figures and ignoring their commands has much more severe consequences than goofing off in class. If he didn't understand how to act around the police, there's obviously a problem with his parents or his community, or both.
You called him stupid, how is that better?
The videos are there but without sound we can't exactly hear the important part, the officers telling him to put his hands up. Hell, maybe he just plain couldn't hear them for some reason.
