But that's not when they shot him, no. That's when they tased him. They shot him as he convulsed on the ground.
' "When police arrived, I'm told, he raised his hands and attempted to explain what was going on," Merritt said in the post. "Police fired tasers at him and when his body convulsed from the electrical current, they 'perceived a threat' and shot him to death." '
ACAB. Death to cops. Death to America.
edit: it was saturday night
damn now i feel bad
tbf, it really wouldnt be all that surprising if a cop rolled up on their kid and shot before recognizing them, so... preemptive :shocked-pikachu: for when that actually happens next week
edit: iirc there was an off duty cop that shot his kid like a year or two ago, but he thought he was breaking in or something? if that counts
