D.U. had photos posted that were supposed to have been taken shortly after Antonio was killed. They showed no gun on the scene. Photos taken about 10 minutes later, showed a gun that magically appeared in the photos.
Is there anything more on this? Maybe photoshop?

(5,018 posts)then the guy had a gun.
If the photos dont show it, if the video is from so far away and so out of focus that it is impossible to tell anything that happened other than the cop shooting, then you must take the cops word for it, no matter what
Otherwise we will have a breakdown of law and order...questioning authority sounds cute and all, but stop it...
Questioning authority has never worked to create a better society, history proves that those who accept blindly what they are told are better off, happier.

(21,786 posts)those photos aren't evidence of anything because they aren't taken from the same position and angle. The video shows Martin taking a step back, reaching to his pocket, pulling out a gun and pointing it at the cop. I'm not sure why it's easier for some people to believe that a cop would just shoot for no reason at all and completely unprovoked than that someone with a history of arrests for violent crime would pull a gun on a cop.

(16,974 posts)Differing angles, distances and directions prove nothing about the gun or lack of gun. We do know the person does have a history of firearms offences.
