I think the boy that was killed kind of had it coming to him. He should have never been walking down the street with a toy gun that looked very similar to an AK-47. And when the police approached him he turned around and pointed it at them. I think the Police made the right call and who cares how many shots were fired the boy is still dead. The police were following there training and protecting themselves from someone they thought had a very dangerous weapon. I think it is very sad that the boy had to die over something as stupid as a toy gun. But if I had to say it's anyone's fault it's his.
