Just another piece of the puzzle - evidence that our world is collapsing piece by piece and inch by inch. This was unjustified murder.
When cops would shoot a kid in a civilian neighborhood - lack of criminal or hostile intent, that's pretty bad. Not long ago, cops were out to serve and protect. Now, the overwhelming attitude is, "I'm coming home tonight no matter what." That is a dangerous attitude.
Heck, I am intimately familiar with the rules of engagement in war, and the way that kids behavior was described that's not even hostile intend. Soldiers in Iraq would have been prosecuted for murder doing what these cops did.
And I'm sure the cops have stricter ROE than Soldiers in war.
Anyone paying attention sees the totalitarian direction our nation is marching toward: the war on drugs, no-knock raids that get innocent people (and pets) killed, unlawful arrests and detentions, etc.
It's getting very scary.
