        Where is the blame of the police ... It is the police's fault in their response not the person who made a prank call... AGAIN this is the police's fault reports like this makes it seem they did nothing wrong.

        Nope. Dude is in deep trouble, yes, but the cops assassinated a law abiding man on his own porch before assessing the situation. The caller can’t be held responsible for bad police training.

        Based upon information police were given, i.e., "I shot my father." How were they to know he wasn't reaching for his gun? I'm sorry the man was shot, however it falls under conspirscy to commit murder. The "prankster" is truly guilty.

        Actually, there are VERY, VERY FEW Shootings of Unarmed Citizens by police (Almost NEVER) and Very Few are Unjustified. What happened there was a Tragedy because, Obviously, some Wimpy, Nut-job believes policing is not a serious matter.

        Almost never? Tell that to the countless black men who have been gunned down at "routine traffic stops" & their grieving families. SMDH. When police use deadly force when dealing with individuals that pose no threat.. an independent investigation should be conducted immediately.

        Check yourself. 1/3 of US citizens killed by strangers are killed by the police. They are out of control and I will never call the police in a minor situation cause it risks human life. Cops are bullies and gang members. They shame us.

        People don’t want good cops to be punished, they want bad cops who shoot innocent unarmed people to be punished and that has proven to be too much to ask because people like YOU who refuse to hold them accountable.

        Nobody is saying this kid is innocent, nobody is defending his actions, but a lot of people are defending the guy who literally took the life of an innocent, confused father.

        That is an Example of a TRAGEDY where Police are NOT going to risk their lives & the lives of people around them, when it is believed some Nut just Executed a Family Member, is holding others hostage & is about to Burn down their House. THAT POLICEMAN will have to LIVE-With-That.
