Re: The next Ferguson ?
Given the situation as described, yes, the cop had to shoot him. He made a potentially life threatening move after being told to raise his hands. Had he complied, he'd still be alive. He failed to comply. It's all his fault he's dead.
Do you think his parents contemplated such a situation? I think almost no parents would. The kid did something stupid, no one has argued that. Question is, did the cop have to shoot him?
