        @c_cgottlieb @cnnbrk according to the cops the guy pulled a gun. Weird, considering that he was shot in the back.

        @c_cgottlieb @cnnbrk again, only according to the cops. They say that he pointed them with a gun, doubtful considering he wasn't facing them

        @iggy1296 @cnnbrk The courts can decide that. Pull a gun on a cop and you attack us all.

        @c_cgottlieb @cnnbrk so far the only evidence that he pulled a gun is the word of two cops that shot a man in the back. Not very reliable.

        @c_cgottlieb @cnnbrk no. A man who shots another in the back regardless of the situation is a coward who didn't have the guts to face him.

        @cnnbrk In the back? he must have been using his double body super powers that's how the police will justify the shooting

        @Badass_Abe @msgdi8511 @cnnbrk I guess so.. Wait to be shot before firing when you're on the street to protect? I don't think so!
