There is no escaping the tragedy. A 12-year-old is dead, shot by police outside a recreation area in Cleveland after they mistook his “airsoft”-type replica gun for an actual semi-automatic pistol, his gesture as an actual threat. But beyond the family’s grief, is there more to build on? Sadly, you can count on it.

This one was totally justified. Cops respond to “man with a gun call”. The BB gun was modified (orange tip removed) so as to look like a real weapon. Suspect was told to put hands up, and instead reached for the gun in his waistband. Split-second life or death decision, two rounds fired. Threat neutralized. The distraught father wants to know why they didn’t taser him instead or shoot him in the leg. Father can’t understand how police could execute his beloved he-could-do-no-wrong respectful honor student son. Cue the speeches by Race hustlers, protest marches and riots.
