Black Boy Killed For Playing With Toy Gun

[Luther]

The shooting of Tamir Rice, a twelve-year-old African American boy, occurred on November 22, 2014, in Cleveland, Ohio. Two police officers, 26-year-old Timothy Loehmann and 46-year-old Frank Garmback, responded after receiving reports of a boy armed with a gun described as "probably fake", and brandishing it at people in a city park. The officers reported that during the confrontation, Rice reached towards a gun in his waistband. Loehmann fired two shots within two seconds of arriving on the scene, hitting Rice once in the torso. Rice's "gun" was later found to be a toy airsoft gun.Rice died on the day after the shooting.
In the aftermath of the shooting, it was reported that Loehmann had been deemed an emotionally unstable recruit and unfit for duty in his previous job as a policeman in Independence, Ohio.
The incident received national and international coverage, in part due to the time of its occurrence; the recent police shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri and the subsequent unrest had attracted public attention.

I read this yesterday. Absolutely stupid.

What happened to, "Put your hands in the air!"? Why on earth is a cop foolish enough to shoot a child first and gather details later? I feel bad for the family, no sense in something like this. Hopefully this cop suffers some kind of consequences, mistake or not. I feel like we have been hearing about too many cops making questionable decisions lately and if they don't suffer consequences, they will keep thinking that actions like these are okay to take in their position. Our protectors will soon be the people that we watch out, when they're the ones who are supposed to watch out for us.

never heard of this... and A.... kid should've know better than to walk around pointing guns at people, fake or not... though he shouldn't have been shot but who knew what he had... B why in the world anyone ... that at any point was hinted at being unstable ... be allowed on the police force

Because they feel lovely and proud at tonights diner when they have the feeling they killed a black person, knowing he won't have a diner anymore.

when I was a little kid ... I was threatened multiple times by twelve year olds .. they all threatened to beat me up and kill me ... its because of that, that I believe that kids at twelve (whether white or black) are violent and will more than likely do something thinking it'll make them cool. unfortunately doing cool things can get you in trouble and possibly killed ... I don't feel sorry for the kid .. I didn't know him ... and I agree they could've handled it better ... but kids at that age will do bad things... how would anyone know what he had until he pulled it out ... even if it was an airsoft gun ... if it wasn't someone else would've died... the point is .. his age is irrelevant his parents and honestly common sense shoulda told him to run around pointing a gun at people... though if he was actually about to give them the gun ... then that's the polices fault for being stupid

I dunno what to say on this topic. Words are pointless at this moment. State of the world is terrible and I cannot believe that this is happening in 21st century.

If this guy does not get a verdict....All sh**t will break loose I think. And I'm not even from the states.

Yeah it's sad and all some little kid got shot (SIKE, I DON'T GIVE A ****) but you people say it's racism a lot, when it's really not.

White people get killed by cops all the time, and it just doesn't get heard about or anything. It never makes international news, at all. The only reason I even find out about these things is because it goes around on Facebook so that it can gain attention.

Other than that, that's pretty funny and ironic the way this lil boy died. How old was he? lol
