LAPD SHOT 13-year-old

by POLICE STATE Wednesday, Feb. 09, 2005 at 7:11 AM

LOS ANGELES - Residents in South Los Angeles reacted to the fatal police shooting of a 13-year-old suspected car thief with shock and anger Monday - and questioned whether it was justified....... http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/news/breaking_news/10841189.htm?1c

Police fired 10 rounds into a car driven by Devin Brown after he led them on a 3 1/2-mile chase and then backed into their cruiser just before 4 a.m. Sunday.

Brown, an eighth-grader at a local magnet school for gifted youth, was pronounced dead at the scene. A 14-year-old passenger was arrested and booked on charges of grand auto theft.

Police initially called Brown, who was unarmed, a suspected gang member, but a spokeswoman said Monday that investigators couldn't immediately confirm a gang affiliation...

Stolen car, 13 year old gang-banger, tried to strike a police officer with said car....

Sounds justified to me.

have any of you idots and racists even seen the evidence thats available to the public

Toyota Pic
http://www.nbc4.tv/slideshow/4174140/detail.html?qs=;s=20;w=320



this boy did not run the cops down... quit refferring to it as running them down... that implies the officer was out of the vehicle during the collision... I wish he had run the fu*ks down..... he merely backed up into their car... with a toyota (plastic piece of shit car)...
physics tells us that in reverse with between 9 and 19 feet the toyota posed no threat to the officers life... the officers are trained to use thier car as a blockade when suspects flee... they smash shit up all the fu*king time during chases...
GRAND THEFT AUTO IS NOT PUNISHABLE BY FIRING SQUAD... it only takes one bullet to stop someone... especially when you're a cop who trains with your weapon and your car on a daily/weekly basis...

pigs are trianed for this kind of shit... the boy was not....

the ignorant racist comment listed on this page and other makes me sick.... i hope whoever posted them meets me in a dark alley and i'll show them what's justifiable...

this kid was unarmed and the officers training and proceedure did not entitle them to be judge jury and executioner... the damage done to their car was bullshit and negligable... the toyota that the child was in was shot from the side not from the back... the officer was not protecting himself... he was venting his rage of having a smaller penis than his dog....


by the way... you idiots shoud know that being in a gang isn't punishable by firing sqaud/execution either.... being a gang member isn't even a crime... do you idiot remeber the preamble... bill of rights... articles...??? right to free assembly... the gang aspect has nothing to do with anything and does not give the officer any additional rights to was they have... they are a tool of the people and they will pay for what they've done one way or another...


1954 Emmett Till 14 yrs old was horribly beaten murdered and tied to fairy wheel and left to float down the mississippi river. Murdered by two white men for saying "bye, babe" to a white girl........... his body was only identified by a piece of jewelry fused to his hand...

With all the evidence in the world against them the all white male jury pronounced them innocent and they died of natural causes... let's hope this officer Steven Garcia does not die of natural causes.......................................................................

OMG!!112!one

by Don't you wanna know. Thursday, Feb. 24, 2005 at 11:08 PM

Hey, it was 4 am, dark, the cops can't see who was driving, how were they supposed to know that 1. there were no weapons in the car, 2. what the kid intended to do when it slammed the cruiser, to do that much wth that car he hit pretty hard, 3. that in fact it was a kid. On top of that, at least one officer was out of the vehicle, they made a number of calls on p.a. for the driver to stop. Yeah, sounds like he got what was coming. I'd have feared for my life as well.
