He shouldnt have pulled a pistol on the cops, BOTTOM LINE. Get over it!!!

Arkfiremedic: There are plenty of cops who put their lives on the line everyday to honorably serve our country who don't shoot kids for no reason. Read the story; they fatally shot a "suspect." Then they lied about whether or not he actually provoked them by firing a weapon. That doesn't sound fishy to you? If they're in the right, why try to cover it up? Isn't this America? Aren't we innocent until proven guilty? Or has everyone lost their minds? As for you Radtech, you're obviously not capable of forming anything that resembles a coherent opinion so I have nothing further to say to you. Thank you Ouchh and Realitycheck for making sense in this tragic mess of a situation. I only hope Collin's parents don't read what these other idiots have been saying.

Hey Radtech. First of all, here's a grammar lesson. "There" refers to a place. "Their," which is the word you were trying to use, refers to something that belongs to people. That said, why don't you have a little heart. Here's some facts for you. Collin was a father, a son, a friend, and a downright good guy. You congratulated the LRPD for cold-blooded murder. I implore you to watch this case unfold. When the truth comes out, I'll be waiting for you to accept your ignorace and admit that you are wrong. The cops that shot Collin in cold blood are the true criminals.

Ok Radtech - you can just join the other political "flip floppers" in the world. You don't pick a side based on who is talking. You lost all of your integrity right there. Here is the fact - no one knows the whole story yet. Let the invitsigation continue. They have already back tracked on the the fact he fired a gun, what else will change as the story plays out? Get this straight ---- it is NEVER ok to say it is good a kid died!!! GOT IT??? NEVER. That was someone's son, someone's father, and he was loved by many people. The media will play this many ways before the whole story is out. Wait until the truth/final evidence is in before you decide who deserves to live and die. Oh, and stuff this in your hat and chew on it -there were several winesses and as of yet, their accounts haven't been heard. Get the facts, then make up your mind. Don't be ignorant and run off at the mouth just to wish ill on someone else!

This goes out to " ouchh and realitycheck." Your right i did comment before i knew all the details and i apologize for that and iam sadend by the lose of this young man and my heart goes out to his family. This young man still shouldnt had pulled a 9mm on the cops when all they wanted to do was question him. "Innocent until proven guilty." But for "reality check" to wish something bad onto someone in my family, well that is just dispicable you punk. Once again i apologize for my article i wrote before i read the whole story and by the way, my father fought in the IRAQ WAR along with hundred of thousands so you cant get off that band wagon.

And I need a reality check??? Hey- I've got one for YOU. Since all the police are secretly corrupt, demonic thugs- who are itching to pull the trigger- the next time one of your family members gets robbed, your house broken into or RAPED or KILLED why don't you just investigate it YOURSELF. I'm sure your years and years of training on how to dog the police on these forums will pay huge dividends when you bring your case to trial.... Thank You to ALL officers who put their life on the line daily in the country I am glad to call home. You conspiracy theorists never cease to amaze me.

Thank you Reality check what you said makes better since then what I had said Thank you again.

radtech, Im pretty sure you commit crimes all the time, although they may small, you should fry b/c thats the ameican way. How stupid do you sound and you dont even know the full story.

You think this is a good job? Are you nuts? Do you know anything about this alleged crime or the family of this kid? They are all veterans who fought for your freedom and deserve the kindness and understanding of a civilization that has seen unreasonable police abuse swept under the rug. Are your police not trained to subdue? Did they have to kill him? What are all the circumstances? I think you should take your righteous attitude and shove it. Hopefully with your attitude - next time it will be someone you care about in the wrong place at the wrong time on the other end of a mean cop with a bad attitude who's hunting for a victim and a promotion. Its always the "bad-criminal" isn't it? I think this time it could have been a completely botched investigation with self-rightous police who have stupid citizen like yourself to back their self-serving actions. Our constitution says "Innocent until proven guilty" and he was under investigation. I'm sure there is going to be a big cover-up for a bigger than life mistake. Or better yet - a huge civil suit. You - are part of the problem OR are probably related to the cops that shot him - looking for a pat on the back for you and your Good "ole Boys club. Thats my opinion. Shoot me.
