I don't agree with shooting someone 20 times, and they didn't know what he was carrying, but when you run from the police you're taking everything to the next level. And running isn't a racial issue. Black or White, if you run, you're taking your chances.

Not sure how many times they hit. Or missed.

Was he running from them?

He was in his own yard.

This is what makes the law enforcement response to the Florida school shooting doubly infuriating. Billy Badasses shooting 20 times when it's some unarmed guy, but an actual dangerous guy killing kids right then and there with an AR 15 really needs his ass shot and... hey now, let's cool off and see if cooler heads can prevail.

That apparently is in dispute. But should be resolved easily enough from the helicopter video.

Which brings up another point. The police helicopter is circling your neighbor’s house. What an ideal time to stay the hell inside.
