- Yup. They get away with far too much in our society. It's infuriating. -- nm - Krusty Jul 6, 06:10
accidental discharge, not malice with forthought, premeditated etc -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 5, 21:59 1

you can hear them yelling "he's got a gun" or words to that effect - gerald Jul 5, 21:55 5
- I'm starting to worry that cops yell "He's got a gun" and "He's reaching for my taser" almost as routinely as "Stop resisting." -- nm - mara Jul 6, 07:04
- What I read (perhaps faulty) is that he had a gun in his pocket. - ty97 Jul 5, 23:20 1
  - carrying while black is a capital offense -- nm - gerald Jul 5, 23:45
- That's why they were called out, from what I can tell. He was selling bootleg CDs and waved a piece or something. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 5, 22:02 1
  - RIAA means business -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 5, 22:19
