Just a quick skim of the story says he fled the police in the vehicle the night before. Evading police in a motor vehicle is a felony. Cop believed vehicle to be stolen. The cop tried to apprehend him when he was eating his burger and the kid again tried to flee the police in a motor vehicle putting the car into reverse with his door open. He shouldn’t have been shot being that the officer was in no immediate danger of being run over by the car and there is no evidence that members of the public were in danger (with the exception of the passenger I suppose), but obviously the kid wasn’t just eating a burger. He running from the police multiple times because he’s a criminal and doesn’t want to get caught. That said, he should have called for backup and chased the knuckle head down.

I saw the video a couple of days ago. Some cops in this country are totally out of control or borderline mentally ill.
His first mistakes was opening his car door as he has no right to just go up and open someone's car door as that isn't his property unless there's probable cause a crime has been committed which wasn't.
To make it worse he starts to fire at the teen while in the car for no justifiable reason and shoots at the car while the teen is trying to get away in which he could have easily shot or killed someone else walking by. 🙄
he was terrified, you can see his face and reaction fight or flight. he didn't identify himself as an officer, he flung the door open with a gun how the kid was sitting you couldnt see it was an officer, he probably thought he was being car jacked
There was more to the story. I haven't even heard of it but I know there's more to it

[1] Please do not try to pretend like the kid did not just try to run... After the cop opens the door, the kid's IMMEDIATE response was to shift to reverse and start backing up, then there was a struggle, and THEN shots were fired. FYI: This is not a normal response of someone who is supposedly innocent and hasn't done anything.
[2] The officer already looks bad enough! He was pretty much mag-dumping at a fleeing vehicle that wasn't even driving toward him...[3] A more appropriate title would be: "Texas officer opens fire at fleeing suspect in McDonald's parking lot." Because the shooting started as the kid was already in the process of fleeing. But titles like yours and CNN's try to imply that he was shot simply for eating outside... which is kind of dishonest... and it isn't even necessary.
no opinion, not sure what is going on... no context.
why they both respond like that...
glad they were non black...
Terribly dangerous given so many bullets and a speeding out of his mind kid, someone could get killed by accident.
My first thought went "he didn't comply, didn't he?"
I watch the video. He didn't comply. I'm not surprised. Instead of getting out he grabbed the wheel, good going, bud.It's always surprising to me how the police there are so different to the ones we have here. I wonder if those cops are humans cause they sure act like they are not.
Yeah, and people ask me why I don't want to live in the US. Fuck that shit. Bunch of fucking fruitloops. As much as I hate my country, I'm at least glad our police aren't armed.
To be fair, anyone eating burgers in their car should be shot.
But seriously, how shit scared do you have to be to use that many shots to take down a suspect?
The Holy Spirit has loosened his grip so the Depraved can run amuck in their Sinful Lusts.
Yeah. It was bad. But he was also running form the cops.
The policeman missed the guy, obviously.
But agreed: Going to Mc Donald's isn't worth the hassle.
Looks staged... just to get the YouTube algorithm to give points to the one who posted it.
I wonder if he had a quarter pounder or a Big Mac.
Maybe he didn't have enough ketchup on it or maybe he was chewing the wrong way.
'Murica.
But just to be fair, what is the context?
Poor dude was just trying to enjoy a burger
Arrest the cop and charge him with attempted murder.
These types of videos are why myself and millions of people are secretly rooting for the collapse of the United States.
Where are the BLM protests oh gosh yeah this one doesn't count I guess
Illustrates the problem we have with people respecting the police
