This infuriates me.
What would you do if that was your child playing at a recreation center with no one around, playing with a TOY gun (who's kid has not?), and a policeman pulls up and shoots him in under 10 seconds?
It simply would not have happened if the child were white.
Evidence? What about the requirement that an officer, sworn to protect us (all of us) use some judgement?
What if we all put a sign in our front window asking for “Justice for Tamir Rice”, for a start?
