Police were responding to a 911 call about a disturbed man walking around with a gun, threatening suicide. Kinsey said that man was one of his patients, Rinaldo, who has autism. The reported gun, he said, was actually a toy truck.

The video shows Kinsey, with both hands held up in the air, telling officers “All he has is a toy truck. A toy truck. I am a behavior therapist at a group home.”

Kinsey was simultaneously trying to calm Rinaldo and explain what was happening to the police, he says, when an officer shot him.

“I thought it was a mosquito bite, and when it hit me I had my hands in the air, and I’m thinking, ‘I just got shot!’ Kinsey recalled. “I’m saying, ‘Sir, why did you shoot me?’ and his words to me were, ‘I don’t know.'”

Kinsey said the officers then handcuffed him and flipped him over as he bled onto the concrete.

buzzfeed has it right in their recap of the night "NOTE: Yes, these photos are amusing, but it’s obvious that neither Trump nor Ingraham were purposefully giving the Nazi salute, and it’s silly to act like this was anything other than a chance of photographic timing.". can't believe i really needed to point that out though
Photos? There's a video. You keep eliding that. Will this help?

I don't care news sites think is "newsworthy," nor do I see how "newsworthy" is even the test for whether this should be mentioned. I find your appeal to authority to be inexplicable.

Agreed with Holliday on both posts. The wave is a non-story and just really awkward.

It's really sad that the guy getting shot in Miami isn't an onion article.

If charges aren't pressed against the officer who shot that therapist I think it justifies violent protest against the police and justice system of that area.

"Why did you shoot me?"

"I don't know."

Then handcuff the dude. Nothing to see here.

Pretty strong day/night for TEAM LOL GOP. While I agree the salute story is a nonstory and not a huge deal lol at not being conscious of optics there when you just spoke for a guy who literally retweets White Supremacist. Shouldn't be surprised I suppose given the party is full of oblivion wrt pretty much everything.

Unfortunately the guy wasn't in the process of committing a crime, or a lifelong criminal, so it doesn't fit the narrative. It will be a non story.

Yeah the salute thing is only a story because it fits into the more general story of the convention being a poorly managed **** show.

Gotta hand it to Cruz, 100% assumed he'd fall in line and kiss the ring

Too bad the guy is otherwise insane

Cruz definitely had no reason to kiss the ring. Its cute how the donor class think they still run the GOP at the POTUS level.

It's hilarious that they'd have Cruz speak when Trump has spent the last 6 months referring to him as Lyin' Ted.

I agree but I also figured not even Drumpf and the RNC could be stupid enough to allow him to speak unless they knew with absolute certainty he was going to

It's hilarious they'd want him to speak even if he was going to endorse. For the same reason it's dumb that Hillary keeps tweeting about how much Republicans love her.

An endorsement from a guy you've dubbed Lyin' Ted shouldn't be a good thing that you want and are proud of.

I hope it's not the case, but sadly I have a feeling it will be a non story. This literally could be the biggest turning point in policing history, but it won't be because the officer will probably just get fired and nobody will care.
