Quote: If the kid was going for the gun lets see the evidence than you take ALL the wind out of the mobs sails. 

 

When a citizen is shot it's on the authority to PROVE it's a clean shooting, it's not on the public to assume and accept it was a clean shooting. 

 

The officer's word is the evidence.  If you mean video evidence is required before a cop uses any use of force, then you are going to have a lot of cops being seriously injured and killed.

 

You are completely wrong.  It's not on the authorities to PROVE its a clean shooting.  Innocent until proven guilty.  It's on the DA to prove the cop acted beyond what any reasonable officer in his situation would have done and then prosecute based on evidence.  It's not a public vs police department thing.  It's a public vs joe the cop thing.
