Obama should try and do something about this. Every country with their own problem.
This isn't good
Is " shoot to kill " the order of the day now ? what about " safe shoot" - Shot to the arm or leg just to incapacitate him? Looks like they are asking for it.

They always claim to feel threatened. Why is dat whites teens don't get killed or why is it dat black police officers don't kill white teens or is it only white policemen dat are always threatened. Racism cannot be cleared from america even wen the president is black

Oh Lord av mercy. I think white pple really want d black to go extinct in USA.
This isn't looking good atall, these racial killings are gradually heading towards a point of no return. God help America.
Let's call a spade a spade...lets stop playing the "victim" and making everything about Race. Black Americans need to change the way they tell their story to the world (glorifying violence) before they can be treated with respect. In all these cases...whether Trayvon Martin, Mike Brown, or this new case, the black guy attacked a police officers. Why would you threaten the life of a law enforcer? Why would a sane person do that?
When blacks stop behaving like savages, they would be treated better.

Wahs wrong wif all this white police sef? They must be crazy, they so much hate black die, why is it happening under obama
Racism coupled with police brutality cannot end in the US. TRAYVON MARTIN, MIKE BROWN AND THIS RECENT EVENT is a pointer to discrimination.JKAZZ.
Obama did not empower blacks. Hez just there. Not special afterall!

And all the black president does is keep quiet. Shame!
If an arab man do it, he's a terrorist.
If a black man do it, he's a menace to the society.
If a white man do it, he's just depressed or mentally challenged.
The world we live in!
Very more why it saddens me deeply when I see young people partying away in poverty, instead of struggling hard to be a somebody in this bias world.
Ok...now we know whatsup
Sometimes, the blacks are to blame what was he doing flashing a hand gun at a cop? well, i dont know what to say sef
This is beginning to. Get scaring what d fu****k is all this naa? JC
Ignorance is a big issue in this country.
It clearly says that the black teenager pulled and pointed a gun at the officer.
This is not a case of racism, but simply, self defense.
No racism in self defense, he would have done the same if the kid was white.

True talk here... They are now trying to manipulate the whole situation. How can you pull a guy at an officer and don't expect to get shot. Everyone quickly running to pick up the race card. #NoRacismInSelfDefense
Lord have mercy
That's not why... Cuz they've never given you visa.
Afghanistan, Iraq,Syria,Libya,Northern Nigeria and Somalia are far more better and safer than the Disunited States Of America. 17,000 gun related deaths per year !

Linda, if ACTUALLY he pointed a gun at the officer, then he deserved to be shot or even killed as in this instance. It was either his life or that of the officer. Probably he wanted to commit suicide by cop.
Cops are taught to disarm first and have the equipment at their disposal in the US to do that. Police work isn't risk free, and officers sign up to contain the dangerous situations that come with the job. The problem here is that blacks keep winding up dead in their interactions with them. That police face some sheisty people over the course of doing their work isn't news.
Are they going back to years age when racism was the order of the day in America?
mehn, why now. dere is God oo
You can't fight fire with fire, someone will get burnt.
oh God help us blacks amen
If he had a gun well then justified. Unlike others that did not have a gun.
this thing is just going to go on and on
Sad
End times. Well the truth still stands that if the teen had a gun and ready to shoot the policeman, the officer would shoot first having the opportunity without calculating to only incapacitate. I'm sure anybody would do same if in the same position. But if it is also a case of racism, God will judge them.
We need to accept Jesus and change from our bad ways and prepare for the life after death.
It takes a while for things to work! The more the protests , the more it will be looked into. Something will be done about this police men. What happened to the good ones?
So if you suspect a person is armed , the best thing to do is Shoot to kill? WOW! This is sooo sad
Oh no! This is not good atall, something needs to be done quick to curb this act. Rip to him #onelovefromSnow#
Ode what should Obama do??
Nawa! An eye 4 an eye,tut 4 tut!
This is getting too much na....why won't the police always allege...smh all is not well in America. Them be killing blacks like chicken
Am tired of all this seriously. Let God be the judge.
RIP
<<1stBenueSon100%Nigerian>>
This's madness.
These people are fucking useless.what happened to incapacitating??? Is that not the right thing 2 do? SMH!
Fuck the police every night. How the fuck a badged cop gonna shoot a teen just because he pointed a gun at him. Funny he didn't even fire a shot at the cop and the fuck cop fired a whole 3 shots at him. Before he was badged, he wasn't taught another way to disarm without killing the person? They killing teens, they killing dreams. #fuckThePolice again. Sowie for being raw. I'm pained!!!
Crafty cop
@lwkmd_naija
Why not shoot him on his leg instead of killing him...mtchew
You are so right. Imagine an 18years old boy pointing a gun at an officer. So you guys expect the officer not to defend himself. In America, the blacks are always on the wrong side of the law. Crime, rape, looting etc. they need good orientation because most of the blacks commiting crimes in American have a very shaky family background. Though we have the responsible blacks but the irresponsible ones far outnumbered the responsible ones.
Wow
I don't know... this is becoming something ease
