Stipulation: the crime, whatever it was, shouldn't have resulted in being shot to death. Comment on the video:

The post seems to conveniently ignore the video of the kid towering over the clerk and grabbing him by the front of his shirt.

You don't get to claim "this video shows a normal transaction" by ignoring the part of the transaction that had the kid physically intimidating the clerk and putting hands on him.

Again, stipulating that the crime, if there was one, should not have resulted in him being shot dead by an officer.

Him being shot by the officer had all to do with reactions upon the meeting - Will Hunting Aug 19, 17:38 3
- I've stayed away from commenting on that part of this only because there are a LOT of self-serving statements that seem to cover the full range of who - TWuG Aug 19, 17:43
- There's a rumor going around twitter that he hadn't taken the headshot until he was standing over brown, disabled on the ground -- nm - Beryllium Aug 19, 17:41 1
  - And it's Twitter so it has as much chance of being right as Paris Hilton about anything. - Will Hunting Aug 19, 17:44
