Dude, give me a break. Since when is it procedure to just shoot people without knowing what's going on??? You don't expect anyone to believe that do you???
Did you even read a single word that I just wrote?
I'm suggesting that the cop wasn't trying to shoot anyone.
Also, YOU DON'T KNOW if the autistic guy was acting in a threatening manner when the cop fired his weapon because Kinsley's lawyer conveniently left that part out of the video he provided to the media.

www.cnn.com... the hell are you talking about? This is sheer negligence
The officer had intended to shoot the patient, whom he thought posed a danger, but accidentally shot the caregiver instead, said John Rivera, the President of the Dade County Police Benevolent Association.

So, now the story is that the cop was just a bad shot...
The North Miami police officer who shot an unarmed, black mental health worker caring for a patient actually took aim at the autistic man next to him, but missed, the head of the police union said Thursday.

this is DISGUSTING.
My god...I don't wish harm on any innocent officers, but if some ex military nutjob in florida wants to single out and ACE that POS cop, by all means I will not shed a TEAR.
He's an animal that needs to be put down

Haven't I already made that crystal freaking clear? I really don't like having to repeat myself.
BS. On page 8 of this thread you'll find a link to another video (that also conveniently leaves out the shooting itself... hint, hint) where the autistic guy is screaming at Kinsey to shut up.
Also, if they weren't warning shots, then why didn't the cop continue firing after realizing that he "missed" his "target"?
I don't think you're thinking at all... more like reading from a script.

Oh well gee, he was yelling shut up. Then by all means call in the air strike. Let's not take any chances then.

You said there was no indication that he was acting in a threatening manner. I proved you wrong.
And again, you can't tell me what he was doing when the shots were fired... can you?

You keep insisting that they knew it was a toy truck... do you see a scope on either rifle?

Yelling shut up isn't a threat requiring anyone to shoot. You haven't proved anything.

No you didn't prove anything because you don't know what he was doing.
But I tell ya what. Let's assume he jumped up and started pointing the toy truck at the guy like it was a gun. Happy now???
Because it still doesn't excuse the fact that THE COPS SHOT THE WRONG PERSON!!!!

On the news this morning they said the cop was aiming at the autistic man, thinking him to be the one with the gun. But , if you look, you can see the thing in his hand is not a gun.
The cop is just luck he only wounded the care giver.

Why would they handcuff the caretaker if the autistic man was the target?
That is like me attempting to rescue a hostage but instead of shooting the perp, I shoot the hostage and place the hostage in handcuffs
