Oh, But He Was Such A Good Kid

Even a 14 year old can be a thug and needs to be put down.
From the New York Daily News: A rookie cop shot and killed a 14-year-old gunslinger on a Bronx street early Sunday — just days after Mayor Bloomberg railed against a flood of firearms falling into the wrong hands.
Shaaliver Douse was shot to death just after 3 a.m. in Melrose when he kept firing a black Astra 9-mm. pistol after two uniformed police officers yelled at him to drop the gun, said NYPD Commissioner Raymond Kelly.
Kelly said the teen — who was due in court on a gun-possession rap and had been arrested in May on an attempted murder charge — is the youngest person to die in a police-involved shooting that he can recall.
Douse was chasing an unknown man down E. 151st St. when the officers intervened.
“It is undetermined at this time whether he fired at the officer or the unknown male,” Kelly said at a Sunday evening press conference....
The deadly encounter Sunday unfolded after two rookie cops — a 26-year-old white officer and his black 27-year-old partner — heard gunfire while on patrol on E. 151st St. near Courtlandt Ave.
The officers encountered a terrified man running for his life in the middle of the street with Douse in pursuit, firing wildly at his foe, Kelly said.
He said Douse would have killed the man if the officers hadn’t been there to stop him.

But of course the family have a different story:
But Douse’s distraught aunt, Quwana Barcene, 35, said cops didn’t have to kill her nephew — who she said was a sophomore at the Alfred E. Smith Career and Technical Education High School in the Bronx.
“That’s was my sister’s only baby,” Barcene said. “I’m tired of the police getting away with murder.
“Trayvon Martin is never going to end. Sean Bell happened to my nephew,” she said. “This rookie cop — please bring him up on charges as a murderer.”
Asked if he planned to reach out directly to the victim’s family, Kelly said, “I’m not planning to do that at this juncture. I may.”
Douse, at only 14, had a growing rap sheet. He was scheduled to appear in Bronx Supreme Court on Aug. 23 on a felony charge of possessing a loaded gun, stemming from a Bronx arrest in October 2012.
On May 16, police say, Douse shot a 15-year-old boy in the left shoulder at Boston Road and Jefferson Place, just a mile and a half from where Douse died Sunday.
His alleged victim was treated at Lincoln Hospital and survived.
Douse was arrested a week later and charged with attempted murder, assault, menacing and criminal possession of a weapon, officials said.
I have a 14 year old and a 16 year old and they are in the house by 7:30 in the summer and earlier during school, so what the hell is a 14 year old out chasing a man at 3AM.
And this case isn't even close to be a Trayvon Martin case, in fact it insults Trayvon Martin.
This thug kid wasn't going to live past 16 anyways, if not a cop killing him, then another thug would have gotten him.
And the people to blame: The thugs family.  No one else.
