In Homan Square on Monday night, police pulled over a car that was connected to an earlier shooting. Police say Pierre Loury jumped out and an officer chased him. Police say Loury then pointed a weapon at the officer and that is when he was shot. But a witness claims he saw officers "high five" each other after the teen was gunned down.[/QUOTE]
Pretty irrelevant what they do after they disable the threat. I'd high five/shake hands/grab hands with my partner after a successful skirt with death. Of course, we all know how great eye witnesses work out with these kinds of things. Especially just "a" witness.

Yeeeeah, I don't really have much sympathy for someone who runs off from a traffic stop and then pulls a gun on police when they can't get away.

GOD police are such FASCIST. [sp]/s[/sp]
I'm generally supportive of the whole "stop police brutality" thing, but isn't this case totally different? This time the kid literally pulled a gun on the cops. This whole thing seems pretty counter-productive in terms of solving this whole mess
The protests were because they high fived for shooting an armed criminal who pointed a gun at them. I would have high fived too for not dying.
Kid pulled a fucking gun on the cops after running from them. Only got himself to blame for this one.
[QUOTE=PrusseLusken;50127189]boo hoo, anyone pulling a gun on cops in the US is going to get shot no matter their skin colour. remember the case just a couple weeks ago where some mentally sick guy pulled a knife on a cop on a highway? he shot him once in centre mass, backed off, held him on gunpoint until another cop arrived and tazed him. what is an officer supposed to do when you have a gun aimed at you that can kill no matter if you're 1, 3, 5, or 25 metres away? some witness saying he saw them doing a high five is a piss poor attempt at stirring more shit and giving some teenagers an opportunity to go yell at the town hall while holding some cardboard signs[/QUOTE] Exactly. People hate police in the US now after Freddy Gray happened. If I was a cop I'd be super paranoid too.

Whenever a black male is shot by a white male it's racism

Who cares? Yeah a high 5 is kinda insensitive but it isnt a crime. It is an extreme stretch to say they did it because they killed a black person. Congrats for protesting meaningless shit instead of focusing on the real problems in you city.

(Quoting his captions). Freaking poser. Probably just wanted attention or something. Who knows.
[QUOTE=Fort83;50127129]Why didn't they just pepper spray him in the leg? SMH Can't believe people are protesting this.[/QUOTE] It's the whole professional victim bullshit. It's best to try and ignore it when it's so clearly an illegitimate reason
[QUOTE=agentfazexx;50127167]The protests were because they high fived for shooting an armed criminal who pointed a gun at them.

Are there any objective sources for this? I'd like to see a video before coming to conclusions. Some of you seem too quick to accept the police story even though police lie all the time? Perhaps he never aimed the gun at them? I'm just speculating, I have no knowledge of this case
Why is it that every single protest against young black kids being shot since Trayvon Martin has been a justifiable shooting? Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, etc., why don't they protest over someone who was ACTUALLY wrongfully killed?

[QUOTE=Apache249;50128133]Because most of the time they don't lie.[/QUOTE] Kinda hard to prove no? I've witnessed too many incidents of officers intimidating and lying to the citizens that they work for. I'd like to see the video before I condemn the boy/officer
A witness claimed... You mean to tell me they are basing protests off a single witness testimony that could potentially be bullshit itself? Kid pulled a gun, kid got shot, end of story. Maybe if he had better parents and role models, he'd still be around. Don't protest the cops, protest your own shitty role models, and the thug culture.

[QUOTE=cody8295;50128199]You mean to tell me you're posting based off what a single police department testimony that could potentially be bullshit itself?[/QUOTE] Despite it's probably true, like just about any other justified shooting.
this kid was a [b]THUG[/b] and deserved to be shot, the police say he had a gun and I believe them because he posted a picture on facebook with a gun. I bet he listens to rap music too. I bet all those black people are just looking for an excuse to protest and riot those damn darkies are getting so uppity lately. Do I fit in with this thread yet?
