White teen is shot by police. Where is all the outrage?

Why no outrage? Because the kid was a douche, that's why....at least that's why I don't give a shit. He wanted to be a YouTube star, but I guess that really didn't work out for him.

Maybe the outrage is in this thread. Repost.

There already is a thread in this forum of that incident with some outraged, others not.

He's way more famous on YouTube now than he ever thought he'd be.

What was that kid hoping to accomplish exactly? I guess we'll never know.

When a cop pulls me over I am calm and very polite and comply with instructions given. Guess what, I don't get tazed/etc. Even if I disagree with the reason I was pulled over, or even if I suspect it is a fishing expedition, the smart person still knows better than to antagonize the cops.

So yeah, kid was an idiot and pushed things towards tragedy. Hard to tell what happened at the end of the video though since it was completely dark.

Why not just disarm all the cops? Problem solved.

You have quickly become one of the consistently dumber posters on this forum.

Congratulations on lowering that bar through the floor.

Whoa, hold on now. That seem way too easy and logical. When being pulled over, the first thing that needs to happen is to be confrontational and outraged over something. Next thing, and this is very important, you need to pull out your phone and start recording a video. YouTube stardom is extremely important. You don't want to miss an opportunity. And you aren't going to be a YouTube star, if you are just a civil person.

stupid reason for the kid to die but he resisted, so the cop responded with what would be considered appropriate force

white newlywed firefighter gets killed by a cop because he was drunk, resisting, and hitting the officer

black guy gets shot by a cop because he didn't realize going into his car to get his license could be seen as grabbing a weapon out of the vehicle

if you don't want to get killed by a cop in the US, follow their instructions and make it clear to them what you're doing

Flashing high beams into oncoming traffic used to be a thing decades ago to warn of an upcoming speed trap etc.

Cop shouldn't have reacted that radically to it, the kid should not have went into full YouTube mode.

If the LEO did actually shoot and kill him, was way out of line, I didn't see it.

Looked staged to me, or the cop is a poor one.

The firefighter, F that guy. Going to the ground and punching a cop? Yeah, you got what was coming to you.

The black guy, that was a bad shot. Way too itchy of a trigger finger. I would HIGHLY recommend not making a quick move back into your car without clearly stating your intentions, but the cop had way too itchy of a trigger finger. Hell, the guy had his hands up, and he still kept shooting him. This instance should not be lumped into the other cop shootings. This was a bad shot.
