The videos of officers using their calm and friendly voices while threatening peoples lives or man handling them stresses me out the most. I get that it might be a tactic for them to stay cool under pressure. But drawn fire arms is realistically at the peak of any confrontation. Which is why videos like this piss me off. How is it that threat of deadly force is presented before calm reassurance? I’m guessing ignorance, poor training, and racism (it doesn’t have to be conscious). And then people who have never been in this type of situation have the nerve to be like “just follow orders and don’t resist.” For some people, police confrontation will always be a life threatening experience (not just for POCs but poor folks and other “description fitters” as well). We spend our lives avoiding physical confrontation. And here comes officers fuck face looking for an excuse to abuse his the unreasonable amount of power he holds. Obviously people are people. Not all cops are shit heads. But in general, they are all strangers with buddies and guns. Panic is a natural reaction to threat. But the untrained civilian is supposed to show more patience, understanding, and tact than the goddamn officer.
That’s how it works. The “trained” police officers are allowed to be jumpy as fuck and shoot to kill at the slightest provocation or sudden movement. But 12 year old black kids need to remain calm or die when they’re mistaken for criminals.
I don't get that at all. Can he force a person not to be on their own lawn? The incident was happening a house or two away from the action. Is there a law that prevents you from exiting your own house?
Sooner or later, the cops are gonna meet the wrong parent. They’ll go back in the house, get their AR15, and waste the cop through the window. I have no idea how the cops think this sort of shit is in any way sustainable or reasonable in the long term. They’re going to get people killed, including themselves.
At some point they're gonna try this with some guy who got back from the forever wars with a serious case of PTSD and we're gonna have a full on Rambo situation.
The officer lacked communication skills and was not clear enough: he probably meant for the farthest kids to come near the other ones. But in a situation where they point a gun at you it's unreasonable to except someone, especially a young teenager, to understand unclear information.
Yeah. She is obviously legally allowed to be on her porch but he's basically pointing a gun in her direction yelling for her to go inside. Feels like an unlawful order at that point
The cop literally said: “Come over here. Keep your hands where I can see them and get on the ground.” How do you follow these directives? This is how people get shot.
"Come over here" was addressed to the kids in the back who were walking away. Officer failed to clarify who he was addressing, so the kid in the front thought it was for him and stood up.
"Get on the ground" then "come here". When the kid tried to follow the come here order the cop went back to the "get on the ground". These types of confusing and conflicting order can and have lead to the cop shooting a "suspect". This is a gross lack of training and maturity on the cops part.
They constantly yell conflicting orders to the "suspects" all the time, this is nothing new. Just watch many of the recordings and you'll notice it almost every single time.
My stepdaughter is 12 and the idea of her going through something like this is horrifying. Old enough to understand they're in real danger, not old enough to depersonalize it.
The amount of time they held them under gunpoint is seriously disturbing. The kids are freaking out and cops are doing nothing to defuse or deescalate. Nobody can stay composed for long under that kind of duress. it's a miracle these kids didn't go into fight or flight and get killed.
Pretty sure these kids aren't even teens. They sound like 10-12 years old at the oldest. No way any reasonable person pulls a gun on these children. Fire these cops and charge them with brandishing a firearm.
To be honest that sounds like an insane assylum caller. Used to work at a psych hospital every now and again one of ours would call out a bomb threat or some shit and they’d drop by to let us know
OMG! If shooting hoops outside, where a mom can SEE them from the house is "the wrong place" where CAN those children play and be safe from police and gun terrorism?
Sounds like an old racist POS upset that children of color dare be outside or make any sound. So they call in something that sounds insane to get the quickest response.
Let their imagination run wild? Lol you’re giving them too much credit. More like a person saw some black kids and wanted them gone regardless of how it happens.
Dude, the police department doubling down and saying the cops handled it professionally is so infuriating. I really don't like living in a world where a grown man can pull up and immediately draw a weapon on a group of kids while yelling confusing orders and then be told "yep, that's how we wanted it to go down."
Canada too, if that gun leaves your holster, there's gonna be a whole mess of paperwork to do, and a ton of questions you need to answer. We're not perfect, we have our problems too, but I am SO glad our cops aren't as cartoonishly incompetent as American ones. It's scary who they let become cops in the US.
Justification is the police department’s in America are essentially fascist pigs who power trip and get a hard on from shooting innocent people or endangering the lives of innocent children(as you can see in the video)
Well you see, they're black so they're instantly a threat and he has to be ready to immediately kill them for no reason other than getting a paid vacation.
This happened to me and my friends when we were like 11/12 in front of our house. We were on the ground and my mom came out screaming to not hurt us because we were just kids. Officer didn’t care was going to arrest some of my friends that “fit the description..”
I can relate. My friends and I were held at gun point when were at a skatepark during summer break. Apparently there was drug bust two blocks away from the park and the three people (two black and one latino) ran towards the park. We "fit the description) and later we found out that one of them was well over six feet, and the others were fat guys. We were skaters kids with long hair, not zero heads. Being a POC automatically makes you a suspect I feel.
Got that talk too. Grew up in a while family as the only colored kid and never understood profiling and what it even was until it happened to me. It’s such a world flip because you believe cops are there to protect then all the sudden guns are drawn and pointed at you for what? Walking down the street? My dad had to explain to me how since I was “different” I needed to be more careful around cops even if I’ve done nothing wrong
Using the justification of "fit the description" when someone clearly doesn't should be criminal as fuck. Because the purpose is to kidnap, torture and potentially murder someone.
I hold them in the same regard as I would any criminal gang. The bad these officers do far outweighs the good. They are an extension of the government that is now oppressing people. It’s time to start holding someone accountable for change.
Welcome to America. Where civilians aren't civilians. Were all enemy combatants. Unless of course you're a "proud boy" or some shit. Then of course you've got all sorts of cop buddies ready to let you get away with shit.
All civilians are enemy combatants unless you are an actual enemy combatant trying to violently overthrow the government. Then you are a patriot and more than likely a cop.
Typical cops. Just give all kinds of dumb orders that makes no F sense at all and then start blasting because you follow order 1 and not 2,3,4,5 that this shit gave after that.
Shit like this makes me think parents shouldn’t be afraid to point a weapon back at cops. Cops want to sue the line of “I shot them cause I felt as if my life was in danger”, same shit should apply to people who feel as if they’re life was in danger from cops and ESPECIALLY in the case where their children’s life was in danger.
The basic expectation that they're not supposed to pull a gun on someone unless they're being threatened... that doesn't seem too hard to comprehend. These guys though, out of the car, couple kids, guns drawn? F those guys. No wonder these kids will grow up hating cops, I do from just watching this shit.
Lets traumatize an entire community and teach them to hate cops because the most important thing is that I make it home at the end of the day and approaching a group of 12 year olds is way too risky. Why don't people respect me?
I hope this officer sleeps good at night knowing he just pointed a loaded firearm at a bunch of kids playing basketball It’s literally videos like these that make me nervous to just be outside Back in my day there were kids everywhere all the time in the streets in the woods just doing normal kid things and now a days if our kids did the same things that we did they might get shot over it
Cowards. Police in the United States absolutely should not be allowed to carry guns with live ammunition. Yes, more police "may" get killed. OH WELL, don't do the job.
Our cops just have far too much protection. You could step in here, but you'd get arrested or murdered. You could take it to court, 99% chance nothing will happen though and there's a chance you'll get gang stalked by that police department. There's a reason they're called the biggest gang in the US. For this to change it's going to have to be done at the highest level.
If we’re giving people a job where they get to run around in public with a badge, gun, legal immunity, and the right to shout commands and execute anyone who fails to follow their commands, shouldn’t we at least make sure the motherfuckers can shout clear unambiguous precise exact unpretentious non contradictory commands while holding motherfuckers at gunpoint? For fucks sake.
I’m sure these kids won’t go on to feel stigmatized, and like they portray a negative stereotype they feel they have to then fit. No, an event like this could never possibly do such harm
Thank God that that pointed their weapons at a group of young kids playing, very brave of them! Now, all of these kids will be anti-police/authority for the rest of their lives, with good reason.
Poor kids man, they just wanted to have some fun and then this fucking idiot comes and pulls out a gun on them. Why not just ask questions from a distance without pulling a gun out if you're scared of a group of fucking kids. Pathetic excuse of a person.
Real men hold unarmed kids at gun point! I dgaf what you think about cops, assholes like these that approach kids with guns drawn without an ounce of assessment are the epitome of what we hate about these fucking pigs! Fuck them all!!!
My mom got busted selling less than an ounce of weed in 85. I was 5 years old and had crashed on the couch the night before when the cops broke down our door early in the morning. The first cop in was a sheriffs deputy and he had some dirty hairy looking gun pointed right at me.
the fact that he’s telling them to “calm down” as if they aren’t 10-12 year old KIDS being held at gun point WITH a loaded and working gun in fear for their life
There is a notion taught at the military commanding officers academy in my country: "If, for whatever reason you pull out your service handgun, you don't put it down before firing". It is to make sure that the officers learn not to resort to pulling out a gun to solve every difficult situation, unless they are committed to go through with it and fire it.
Mirrors
“I don’t get why people don’t trust the cops”
Slaps punisher sticker on bumper.
I mean, have these people even tried to just be white? /s
The calm down when locked and loaded was ironic
It's obvious, he realized what he'd done. Held a bunch of kids at gunpoint.
Traumatizing children at gunpoint. I wonder why people hate cops.
Dude's just annoyed at how the parents are making so much noise over the distinct possibility of their children being murdered.
"Stop resisting!"
The videos of officers using their calm and friendly voices while threatening peoples lives or man handling them stresses me out the most. I get that it might be a tactic for them to stay cool under pressure. But drawn fire arms is realistically at the peak of any confrontation. Which is why videos like this piss me off.

Pisses me off when they say calm down like "yeah no worries just see if your calm when someone points a fucking gun at you"
😥😥😥🔫👮 calm down. Everybody calm down.
Hard to stay calm when you're a child with a gun being pointed at you
besides the thousands of people watching this, they just made 5 future adults who hate cops
This is something that fucking irritates the fuck out of me. They immediately pull their gun and escalated to potential for lethal force. Scum.
Calm down while I point my gun a your head
At the 18 seconds mark he takes the safety off. Readying up to start blasting.
That’s how it works. The “trained” police officers are allowed to be jumpy as fuck and shoot to kill at the slightest provocation or sudden movement. But 12 year old black kids need to remain calm or die when they’re mistaken for criminals.
"m'am go back into your house" -mf said while pointing a gun against her children
Also, “calm down, everything is gonna be fine.”
I don't get that at all. Can he force a person not to be on their own lawn? The incident was happening a house or two away from the action. Is there a law that prevents you from exiting your own house?
Sooner or later, the cops are gonna meet the wrong parent. They’ll go back in the house, get their AR15, and waste the cop through the window. I have no idea how the cops think this sort of shit is in any way sustainable or reasonable in the long term. They’re going to get people killed, including themselves.
I might come out and shoot a cop in this situation. I don’t care what their job title is, point a gun at my child and we’re off to the f-cking races.
Mam, mam calm down… I’m only pointing a loaded firearm at your children with my finger on the trigger…why are you overreacting?
It’s not like I’m gonna shoot. Probably.
At some point they're gonna try this with some guy who got back from the forever wars with a serious case of PTSD and we're gonna have a full on Rambo situation.
"Ma'am, please go back in your house while I nonchalantly hold these crying children at gunpoint."
"GO BACK IN YOUR HOUSE, THIS IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS, I"M JUST SHOOTING SOME 12 YEAR OLDS"
ACAB
When he told the kids to come closer and the one on the ground got back up to do what he said I thought for sure I was about to watch a murder.
Damn… pulling a gun out on kids… they will remember this for a life time
He made sure that they will ALWAYS look at cops as a threat
That’s the point of jump out boys. Spreading fear in black and brown communities is their goal.
GET ON THE GROUND!
The officer lacked communication skills and was not clear enough: he probably meant for the farthest kids to come near the other ones. But in a situation where they point a gun at you it's unreasonable to except someone, especially a young teenager, to understand unclear information.
Ma’am go back in your house so I can shoot your 12 year old in peace please.
Yeah. She is obviously legally allowed to be on her porch but he's basically pointing a gun in her direction yelling for her to go inside. Feels like an unlawful order at that point
As a mother myself, I felt her panic in my soul.
The cop literally said: “Come over here. Keep your hands where I can see them and get on the ground.” How do you follow these directives? This is how people get shot.
It’s a feature, not a bug.
You crawl like the vermin you are, ain't that obvious? /s
That’s intentional. Then he gets to start blasting, get some nice paid time off whilst his buddies “investigate”.
Any news article on op’s video?
Yeah. You can see one of the boys from the closer group get up to "come over here" but then immediately be told to get on the ground. So confusing.
"Come over here" was addressed to the kids in the back who were walking away. Officer failed to clarify who he was addressing, so the kid in the front thought it was for him and stood up.
"Get on the ground" then "come here". When the kid tried to follow the come here order the cop went back to the "get on the ground". These types of confusing and conflicting order can and have lead to the cop shooting a "suspect". This is a gross lack of training and maturity on the cops part.
Oh you mean something like this?
Ask Daniel fucking Shaver. Never forget that name.
"Come over here and keep your hands where I can see them and get on the ground"
When you're yelling "get on the ground" and "come over here" at the same time, you are intentionally trying to come up with an excuse to shoot.
The Daniel Shaver approach.
its intentional. they're not accidentally being tyrants - they want their "suspects" to fuck up.
It was the kids fault, the cop clearly didn't say "Simon says"
ACAB
ItS tHe tRaiNinG
It is how Mesa Police murdered Daniel Shaver
They constantly yell conflicting orders to the "suspects" all the time, this is nothing new. Just watch many of the recordings and you'll notice it almost every single time.
They do this shit on purpose.

It's like we're not sending our best and brightest, are we?
That one boys' cry sounds exactly like a kid I used to babysit, its so jarring and disturbing. This is seriously heartbreaking, those poor babies.
That hit me as a father. You can hear the fear and pain. He thought he was about to die.
My stepdaughter is 12 and the idea of her going through something like this is horrifying. Old enough to understand they're in real danger, not old enough to depersonalize it.
The amount of time they held them under gunpoint is seriously disturbing. The kids are freaking out and cops are doing nothing to defuse or deescalate. Nobody can stay composed for long under that kind of duress. it's a miracle these kids didn't go into fight or flight and get killed.
Yeah this video had me fuming and tearing up. How is this legal.
Doesn’t look like a bad neighborhood
https://abcnews.go.com/amp/US/controversial-police-footage-shows-unarmed-youths-detained-gunpoint/story?id=47006615
If you had a 100 person fight and there were guns I am assuming there would be more than one call.
Pretty sure these kids aren't even teens. They sound like 10-12 years old at the oldest. No way any reasonable person pulls a gun on these children. Fire these cops and charge them with brandishing a firearm.
To be honest that sounds like an insane assylum caller. Used to work at a psych hospital every now and again one of ours would call out a bomb threat or some shit and they’d drop by to let us know

I really don't like living in a world where a grown man can pull up and immediately draw a weapon on a group of kids while yelling confusing orders and then be told "yep, that's how we wanted it to go down."
“Protect and serve” lyin motherfuckers!
Protect their fellow cops and serve capital
They are not legally responsible to do either of those things.
In Finland for example there's an automatic investigation launched if cop takes his pistol out of the holster
I really wish that was policy here
You're one of them socialist commie countries, who cares what you guys think? America is the greatest nation on God's green earth! /S
Canada too, if that gun leaves your holster, there's gonna be a whole mess of paperwork to do, and a ton of questions you need to answer. We're not perfect, we have our problems too, but I am SO glad our cops aren't as cartoonishly incompetent as American ones. It's scary who they let become cops in the US.
US Cops have killed
And Finland has a significant gun culture. The US has guns but not the culture to keep them safely.
Then there's New Zealand where our cops don't even carry guns.
Well dont you guys also have strict standards for drivers license too? If it wasnt dark 23 hrs a day id be moving to finland
“He was armed with a basketball, I was afraid for my life!”
SON! PUT THE FUN DIP DOWN ! DONT YOU DARE DIP AGAIN! OFFICERS FIRE!!!!!!!!!!
STOP RESISTING
BREAK ME OFF A PIECE OF THAT KIT-KAT BAR NOW!!!!
Fucking dumb piece of shit pointing gun at kids as a first resort what the fuck.
Holy fuck why is his weapon out as soon as he gets on scene???????? Where is the justification??
This is how Tamir Rice was murdered also.
The justification is that it's harder to get a drivers license in most countries than it is to become a police officer in the US.
Justification is the police department’s in America are essentially fascist pigs who power trip and get a hard on from shooting innocent people or endangering the lives of innocent children(as you can see in the video)
Well you see, they're black so they're instantly a threat and he has to be ready to immediately kill them for no reason other than getting a paid vacation.
I’m guessing there was a report of a group of kids and one had a gun.
Person reported teens walking around with a gun and you find teens walking around with a gun-shape object so you draw just in case.
This happened to me and my friends when we were like 11/12 in front of our house. We were on the ground and my mom came out screaming to not hurt us because we were just kids. Officer didn’t care was going to arrest some of my friends that “fit the description..”
I can relate. My friends and I were held at gun point when were at a skatepark during summer break. Apparently there was drug bust two blocks away from the park and the three people (two black and one latino) ran towards the park. We "fit the description) and later we found out that one of them was well over six feet, and the others were fat guys. We were skaters kids with long hair, not zero heads. Being a POC automatically makes you a suspect I feel.
Got that talk too. Grew up in a while family as the only colored kid and never understood profiling and what it even was until it happened to me. It’s such a world flip because you believe cops are there to protect then all the sudden guns are drawn and pointed at you for what? Walking down the street? My dad had to explain to me how since I was “different” I needed to be more careful around cops even if I’ve done nothing wrong
The cop: "Man, this 40 year old, 6ft tall white guy sure does look like a short black kid. That cashier totally fucked up the description"
Using the justification of "fit the description" when someone clearly doesn't should be criminal as fuck. Because the purpose is to kidnap, torture and potentially murder someone.
Always film the police. Always. They cannot be trusted. What prompted the officer to draw his weapon? Where was the threat? I couldn’t see anything.
People who make these false reports should be held accountable after the police find out the caller lied to get a quicker response.
The police should be held accountable for using any excuse to terrorize black children.
"Why does everyone hate us?!? It makes no sense!!1"
Over the last 2 years I went from seeing police as a necessary evil to literally hating them with every fiber of my being.
I hold them in the same regard as I would any criminal gang. The bad these officers do far outweighs the good. They are an extension of the government that is now oppressing people. It’s time to start holding someone accountable for change.
YUP. Same.
Tbh I’m real glad for second amendment rn cause I’d rather deal with the threat myself then call the police
“Calm down okay?”
Just a slight reminder.
"get on the ground" (kids get on ground) "come over here" (kid gets up to come over) "Get on the ground"
The real reason you play Simon Says as a kid...
Welcome to America. Where civilians aren't civilians. Were all enemy combatants. Unless of course you're a "proud boy" or some shit. Then of course you've got all sorts of cop buddies ready to let you get away with shit.
You know who else are civilians? Fucking cops!
The cops and the proud boys are the same people.
All civilians are enemy combatants unless you are an actual enemy combatant trying to violently overthrow the government. Then you are a patriot and more than likely a cop.
The most badly trained cops in the world .
This seems like pretty standard training
The is the average cop
Typical cops. Just give all kinds of dumb orders that makes no F sense at all and then start blasting because you follow order 1 and not 2,3,4,5 that this shit gave after that.
Well, I guess that's more criminals off the street, way to go officer dickweed.
Nah the criminals put their guns away and got back in their cars and probably went to find more black kids to harass.
don’t be scared it’ll be alright. or maybe not who knows i have a gun pointed at you. just don’t make me afraid and you’re fine.
I didnt say simon says!!
"calm down" bruh you're holding a gun and calling backup on literal children, how about you calm down?
God this is so sad
Was expecting a rare video of a cop being heroic. I got a cop being a regular cop. What an asshole - no bounds to their complete idiocracy.
Anyone who feels the need to point a gun at a group of children is a fucking coward.
They already said it was a police officer, no need to be redundant.
This dude probably failed out of high school and became a cop
That's an insult to people who failed high school
“Calm down” says the mf pointing a gun at children. Then they wonder why we fucking hate the police.
Untrustworthy cowards with guns threatens children with death...
Shit like this makes me think parents shouldn’t be afraid to point a weapon back at cops. Cops want to sue the line of “I shot them cause I felt as if my life was in danger”, same shit should apply to people who feel as if they’re life was in danger from cops and ESPECIALLY in the case where their children’s life was in danger.
Legally, there are situations where you'd be justified in shooting an officer who was acting outside the law and threatening your life.
The basic expectation that they're not supposed to pull a gun on someone unless they're being threatened... that doesn't seem too hard to comprehend. These guys though, out of the car, couple kids, guns drawn? F those guys. No wonder these kids will grow up hating cops, I do from just watching this shit.
You can’t just walk up and talk to an unarmed 12 year old? You dickless piece of shit
“They’re being complient” - Adult cop pointing gun at 12 year olds.
“Freeze black kids. This is for my protection you thugs!”
Lets traumatize an entire community and teach them to hate cops because the most important thing is that I make it home at the end of the day and approaching a group of 12 year olds is way too risky. Why don't people respect me?
No wonder black Americans are terrified of the police. They treat them like complete subhuman shit
According to
“Black kids??? Not in my town…. 👮♂️ 🚨🚔”
Government provided services working as designed
So pulling guns on kids is a new method of training. Got it.
I hope this officer sleeps good at night knowing he just pointed a loaded firearm at a bunch of kids playing basketball It’s literally videos like these that make me nervous to just be outside Back in my day there were kids everywhere all the time in the streets in the woods just doing normal kid things and now a days if our kids did the same things that we did they might get shot over it
Cowards. Police in the United States absolutely should not be allowed to carry guns with live ammunition. Yes, more police "may" get killed. OH WELL, don't do the job.
Obligatory: ACAB. They've been successfully traumatizing whole generations of black and brown kids since slavery was abolished.
Why is pulling a gun the first action?
Because pigs are fucking useless cunts.
General cowardice.
All cops are criminals
Cop points gun at kids for minutes and watches as they cry and fear deaf 😁
Why do Americans accept this? Do you really think this is how police are supposed to act?
Our cops just have far too much protection. You could step in here, but you'd get arrested or murdered. You could take it to court, 99% chance nothing will happen though and there's a chance you'll get gang stalked by that police department. There's a reason they're called the biggest gang in the US. For this to change it's going to have to be done at the highest level.
acab
Cops are fucking cowards.
If we’re giving people a job where they get to run around in public with a badge, gun, legal immunity, and the right to shout commands and execute anyone who fails to follow their commands, shouldn’t we at least make sure the motherfuckers can shout clear unambiguous precise exact unpretentious non contradictory commands while holding motherfuckers at gunpoint? For fucks sake.
Children they are just children
I’m sure these kids won’t go on to feel stigmatized, and like they portray a negative stereotype they feel they have to then fit. No, an event like this could never possibly do such harm
Police are domestic terrorists. All of them.
This is that freedom Americans keep talking about.
Cops regularly seem to view 12 to 13 year old black kids as “young adults”
Common thugs.
“Just calm down alright” he says while yelling and aiming death at some frightened children.
And people dont understand why i hate pigs.
Thank God that that pointed their weapons at a group of young kids playing, very brave of them! Now, all of these kids will be anti-police/authority for the rest of their lives, with good reason.
This dude needs to get kneed in the groin til he can't reproduce anymore
Sure, the kids were scared for their life and crying because the cops had weapons of murder aimed directly at them….
American cops are the most useless people on the planet. You can't change my mind.
Poor kids man, they just wanted to have some fun and then this fucking idiot comes and pulls out a gun on them. Why not just ask questions from a distance without pulling a gun out if you're scared of a group of fucking kids. Pathetic excuse of a person.
acab
Why does the copnstart with his gun out?? Was it a violent call? Is it a gang neighborhood? Or more likely is he a giant asshole.
Ahh another daily reminder of how grateful I am to not live in America
Fuck cops
I can't say what I want to say or my reddit account will get nuked
Yes, telling a crying child to calm down while you point a gun at them...
I hope the parents of those children sue the fuck out of that pig and his department and the city as well .Sue them into oblivion .
GET ON THE GROUND AND COME OVER HERE AND GET ON THE GROUND
Acab
Get on the ground!
Real men hold unarmed kids at gun point! I dgaf what you think about cops, assholes like these that approach kids with guns drawn without an ounce of assessment are the epitome of what we hate about these fucking pigs! Fuck them all!!!
“Who done it?”
My mom got busted selling less than an ounce of weed in 85. I was 5 years old and had crashed on the couch the night before when the cops broke down our door early in the morning. The first cop in was a sheriffs deputy and he had some dirty hairy looking gun pointed right at me.
Saddest part of this video. 1:15, that poor kid saying "I don't want to die" 😔
to any cops out there who think it's ok to hold kidd at gunpoint-
That child's wailing hurts my heart.
the fact that he’s telling them to “calm down” as if they aren’t 10-12 year old KIDS being held at gun point WITH a loaded and working gun in fear for their life
Why did traumatize a bunch of fucking kids, fucking potato
There is a notion taught at the military commanding officers academy in my country: "If, for whatever reason you pull out your service handgun, you don't put it down before firing". It is to make sure that the officers learn not to resort to pulling out a gun to solve every difficult situation, unless they are committed to go through with it and fire it.
If you that fucking scared of anyone you feel you need to go right to deadly force, A. You a fuckin pussy B. You should not be a cop
