Can't beleive a DUer just said he would have shot this kid [View all]

I mean really look at this poor kid's picture

Now compare his height to the 30" desk behind him - what is he 4'8" maybe ?

Now how can any cop mistake him for a "Perp" and shoot him.

Then when the kid is down on the ground walk over and shoot him again - repeatedly 6 times

Ethan Oliver says he lives across the street and came outside after he heard two gun shots.

He says by that time Lopez was already on the ground.

"Then the cops went at it again and unloaded like 6 to 7 shots,” said Oliver.

When asked if he meant that the deputy shot Lopez while he was on the ground, Oliver said, "Yeah. Exactly what I saw."

Authorities haven't responded to that statement.

Then this guy comes here and says

but that kid was a fool (and his parents are idiots, if they knew he was parading around the 'hood with that "gun&quot . We can only hope that lessons are learned from this.

If I had seen him on my property (I am minutes away from SR), I would have shot him on the spot.

I don't care what kind of sick fuck you are - nobody has the right to shoot kids

I don't give a fuck how many guns you have or how much you hate Mexicans - no one - not no body has the right to shoot kids

btw: FUCK YOU
