The guy they shot was mentally disturbed, he needed a treatment not a bullet. He beat a older lady with a bike lock, almost killing her imo. He was also weirdly dressed, with short leggings and purplish jacket. I thought he looked trans.
The cop who shot was an idiot. That's the first time I see a black cop shot a Latin or other POC who was not even a threat. Trigger happy idiot. That's like double wrong, no threat, no weapon (the guys weapon was a bike lock) plus he was wearing no pants. So definitely no need to shoot him with a M-16 AND right in front of a dressing room. My one American friend showed me this, he said this stuff is happening every day or something along the line now.
What I also don't get is why the girl in the dressing room didn't duck! The police were shouting "LAPD! Come out! Etc" over and over. Plus they must have heard the event where he hit the lady. No blame on her just an observation. If she had ducked shed be alive. The mother is probably regretting not telling her that.
Crazy USA. Is Hollywood that dangerous or is this freak accident that happens once every 10 years?
