 Cop who killed Tamir Rice fired again as he struggles to keep a job

It's been years but my memory of this event was that the child was the size of some adults that I know (small adults), wearing a puffy jacket or coat and was pointing a toy gun (with the red tip removed) at cars.

Someone called 911 and reported the actions and said that it was a kid pointing a toy gun at people. The dispatcher (again, to my recollection) did not give this crucial information to the police. When the police pulled up, it appeared as if Rice was reaching for the gun.

Maybe I'm wrong and all of this is the faulty memory of a man with too much cholesterol in his brain but I bet that if you do a little research you'll see that this article is the usual race baiting MSM crap. It's a horrible event but I don't see the racism there.

"The words of an assistant prosecutor who handled the Rice case – one of the most high-profile and controversial U.S. cases of black death by police over the last year – were most searing for Welbeck. Only Tamir's friends knew he was 12 — he had a 5-foot-7 and 175 pound frame, size-36 pants and extra-large men's jacket — but the officers believed he was in his 20s, Matthew Meyer, an assistant prosecutor in the Cuyahoga County (Ohio) prosecutor’s office, said Monday in a news conference about the case"


"Police said Loehmann fired the fatal shot after it appeared the youth was reaching for a weapon in his waistband. Loehmann provided a statement, but police will not release exactly what he said."


That was a pretty fair video overall.
