I was personally aware that he was a young white guy with long hair...if that matters to anybody, you need a mental check-up.

Re: Ooops! We KILLED the wrong guy.

My point is that if you assume that every cop in every city would make this sort of mistake and just completely fall on his sword, you are either naive or oblivious. Yes, there may be some officers who would say, "we made a mistake and knocked on the wrong door, the victim answered the door, and we just saw a gun and shot him". Here I am, take me to jail" However, I know enough to know that the temptation to try to cover yourself in that situation with no eye witnesses would be great and not unprecedented. I hope there is a way to authenticate it all.

They saw a gun, yes.

And as far as I understand he was pointing it at them.
Which is a serieus thread.
If he had the gun just in his hand on the side of his body I am sure they would not have shot him.

I'm just saying that it would not be the first time that sort of mistake was made. People have been shot because of cell phones and combs in their hands that officers thought were guns. If they thought they were dealing with the attempted murder suspect that they thought they had cornered, it is not inconceivable that the mere sight of a gun could cause at least one officer to fire. I'm sure that they already had their guns in hand and trained when they approached this guy's door.
If you think it impossible that they would say it was pointed at them to cover their tails, I have to disagree...especially when they discovered he was not the suspect after all.

No I am not thinking that.
All I said was that a pointed gun is a reason to act.
I would do the same thing.

What really happened there only the cops know, I was not there....

It is definitely possible that a gun was in the guy's hand when he opened the door, but I doubt he was actually pointing the gun at the officers.

While it's not impossible to do, it's kind of an awkward thing to attempt when I am fully awake.

Imagine how awkward it would be to do that at 2:00 am in the morning.

As usual, with Flordia law enforcement cases that see the light of day of media coverage, I smell a rat.

Re: Ooops! We KILLED the wrong guy.

Victimhood empathy. Sad thing. Everyone feels like they have been victimized by someone or something, so they empathically side with other "victims" such as Trayvon or this guy.

It's sad and dumb that the police and the "non-black guy" are always the real villains, while the "victims" are actually innocent or misunderstood.

Some of the LEO's in Florida have issues and simply need to be re-trained or they need to make another career choice.

This incident, is an example why I say what I say. This whole tragedy could have been avoided.

Do you really want to blame the "victim" in this case-- go ahead.
