Cops receive MWG call they gotta respond. I'm pointing my finger at the dumbass who called 911 from the toy aisle. There really should be criminal charges for doing something that stupid and reckless.

 

Daily caller works like crap on my phone, but I read another piece that says he was walking around the store pointing it at people, therefore I'll point my finger at the idiot that got shot...he created the circumstances that were ultimately his undoing.

 

WTH?


"Another shopper, 37-year-old Angela Williams, collapsed and died as she scrambled to get away after police fired at Crawford."


What? They just threw that little blurb in there without any clarifying info.

This is exactly what Everytown For Gun Control wants - people to dial 911 anytime they see a gun not in the possession of the state.

As they were evacuating, the lady had a medical emergency and died. It sounds like daily caller just wanted to amp it up.

 

The police can shoot people for stupid crap all the time and get away with it and then wonder why some people despise them.

 

It's a shame that the need to protect the public overrides common sense.

This guy have any history of mental illness?

 

He got his results possibly. He may have wanted to do the "death by police" thingy. Either way he was a dummy for pointing any gun, play or not at people. A man points a play gun at some folks and he may get a real one pointed back.

 

The air rifle looks like an FAL if I have my long guns correct. That's a tough one. Not your typical red rider or 870 pumpmaster. I might have shot him myself. Check it out.

ACR, not FAL.

 

If the gun/toy was something he picked up in the store wouldn't it be in all that packaging that takes scissors, a knife and a blow torch to open?

 

Thanks, chiefjason. No doubt in my mind now why he got his ticket cancelled.

 

Jr, one report said they found the empty packaging on the shelf in sporting goods...

 

ACR, not FAL.

I can't make a holster for it so they all look the same. Lol

It takes about 30 seconds for an unattended child to open a toy and leave it laying around.

 

conflicting stories on this one, I saw another report that he was talking to his GF on the phone and was overheard yelling "it isn't real" before he was shot. If he was indeed "Swatted" by one of the anti-types, this is going to change the game a lot.

If he was running around pointing it at people, he got what he deserved.

Regardless, we're gonna need to see the video on this one:

"LeeCee Johnson, who has claimed to be the mother of Mr Crawford's two children, said she was speaking to him on the telephone when police descended on the scene.

Dayton Daily News report her as saying: 'We was just talking. He said he was at the video games playing videos and he went over there by the toy section where the toy guns were.

'And the next thing I know, he said "It's not real," and the police start shooting and they said "Get on the ground," but he was already on the ground because they had shot him.'

'And I could hear him just crying and screaming. I feel like they shot him down like he was not even human.'

If the story is true that he was walking around pointing it at people, well stupid is as stupid does.
Hopefully the video gets released but I doubt it will.

 

This crap needs to end ....

 

Unintended consequences on multiple levels. But, there does seem to be a trend... Everyone is so amp'ed up right now from the public to the LEO. At the same time you have people that don't have a clue and do stupid stuff.

 

This crap needs to end ....

I'm as critical of stupid crap as the next guy. But if he was pointing it at people it meets my criteria of. "Could I have shot this guy in self defense." He points that air gun at me and acts like its a real gun, that qualifies as assault with a deadly weapon and I'm justified in defending myself with deadly force.

Guy was 22. Should have know better. Some times stupidity is painful, sometimes it's lethal.

I agree completely I also find it funny that there was a thread not three days ago about a security guard shooting a guy for pulling a BB gun but it was titled "who says you can't fix stupid". Where was the uproar with that shooting?

Looks real enough to me:

Actually, it looks better than my AR.

 

He played a stupid game and won a prize.

 

What game did he play, I have yet to see where he pointed the gun at anyone. Cops saw a plastic gun and shot him ....

 

I definitely should have read more before commenting. The original story spun this and I bought it. Lots of conflicting info to be found on this one but that looks real enough. If he removed the packaging and went around the store drawing a bead on people with it... effing moron.
