        How about we don't point anything that resembles a gun at police? They don't seem to care for it.

        Typical apathetic, callous Trump fascist who would blame his injured son for being a foolish teenager. And your father didn't like you...

        man...I'm not one to second-guess cops, but there are lots of places on a body to shoot someone without killing them. This is terrible.

        Yes, it's terrible, but you may have been too influenced by television. That's not how it works in real life.

        What did he expect? If it looks real, they have to treat it as such!!! The bigger question is why did he have it in the first place?!

        Read about who the government permitted to have weapons in Venezuela and get back to us.

        If the 15 year old would have cooperated and behaved, he's still be alive today. Sad but the cop was in the right.

        How about you stop promoting degeneracy that it's ok to hate on police, indoctrinating youth to think it's ok to point guns at them? 🤔

        Dumb teenage action not playing a video game. Cops defending themselves in a second of action. Dead teenager. Sad but reality. #dontbedumb
