  1. Well thank God hes alright.

  2. To all cops: As long as you fear integrity and accountability, you are NOT the good guys! End qualified immunity! Make each officer personally liable! It's TYRANTS like this that prove why you don't deserve it.

  3. They better sue that disgusting cop

  4. Imagine being threaten by an 11 yr old

  5. Yt folks, where are you!? You love centering yourself in the middle of everything. Why are you so quiet now😒

  6. Wait for the facts before making a judgment of Sergeant Capers.

  7. Why you can't stop hiring stupid people in police

  8. This sickness i don't understand how police officer supposed to protect you. The community itself and they have failed to do so. taking innocent lives and going by their day like nothing has happened Justice should have been served completely unacceptable and ridiculous . Racist and very shameful and should be thrown under the Prison Walls with no parole.god bless that family of the innocent victim of a child❤😡🙏

  9. Paid vaccation for the ahole

  10. Enough. Training and education for police now.

  11. Never trust a cop,politician,or preacher

  12. That little man will grow up to do great things.

  13. We ask the local gang for help before ever calling for a police officer. Police are just legalized terrorists at this point.

  14. America that occupied the world with human rights and false democracy

  15. If the family "retired" this pig and I served on the jury I would acquit them of all charges!

  16. This is attempted manslaughter in my country.

  17. About to get paid!!!!

  18. Who is this cop?

  19. How come the media doesn’t talk about black on black crime??? But only show crimes from white police officers. I guarantee you that more black men die from gang violence then they do from police violence. But everyone is too ignorant to see that.🤷‍♂️

  20. This wouldn’t have aired if the child wasn’t black🤷‍♂️ Typical mainstream media.

  21. This cop needs to be in prison.

  22. Auf Kinder die noch Milch trinken schießen? Polizist abstempeln. Eure Ausbildung ist nichts gut genug.

  23. Wonder what the excuse will be

  24. The Police officer needs to be charged and put in prison… Period….He should not be allowed to ever be of public service or allowed to have a gun. Administrative leave is not enough… he shot a child prison term..

  25. American policemen openly laugh at blacks. There is a rating of shootings in the chats.

  26. Die Polizei dein Freund und Helfer not in America.

  27. I can't understand why the cop was shot a little kid like this here but? Police officer training starts them off shooting at black targets. Maybe the cop forgot that this was a little kid and thought maybe he was just shooting at a black Target that he was back in the training class?

  28. Another paid vacation for shooting or killing an unarmed Black child by the US’s largest Domestic Terrorist Organization. The FOP!

  29. The people protesting this terrible incident are the same people that don't say a word when it's a stray bullet in the neighborhood. Black lives matter, but only if a white person is involved.

  30. Another coward with a gun and badge.

  31. Ima just be a little or a lot prejudice here but this is typical Mississippi, cop shoots a black person could be a male female 2,10, or 50yr it don't matter in this case a juvenile male who was calling the cops to help out his mother who probably makes the best decisions for herself and family by having multiple children with different fathers, who I'm sure were sweethearts before they start beating women. And probably having them around her residence and young children being absolutely productive and great father figures. Typical day in this great state, lmk if I'm Mississipping something. With the exception of the little man, I say get rid of all them bunch of idiots, and cowards.

  32. I can see how the cop could have mistaken him for a man with a gun in his hand. Clearly self defense.

  33. Poor boy, his life is ruined with this heartache. He can no longer trust police to help him

  34. This kid was under 5 foot how was he confused for an adult when the police knew there were kids in the house. Hope officer is charged

  35. I want to see this bodycam

  36. How ets to discob 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  37. as we learned from george zimmerman its okay to shoot at black kids but not white kids

  38. Dear mother, i hope the cop gets fired. HOWEVER, CAN YOU ( THE #1 PROTECTOR) STOP BRINGING BRUTAL PSYCHOS AROUND YOUR BABIES! 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♂️

  39. Good, he didn't die———-also, don't believe the First Version of this story, wait until all the details come out. The Evil, Lying Left concocts race hoaxes all the time, and their partners in the media run with it.
