        It seems the media is baiting this. If a person, even a child, pulls a gun even a lookalike, what other result should happen?

        why would you post this tweet and further expose the officer when he was just doing his job? Shame on @USATODAY

        he did what he's trained to do! When someone pulls out a fire arm, they defend themselves. The parents are to blame.
