I specially like that the little boy is both smiling and doesn't seem to know how to actually know how to hold or aim the gun. Clearly he is an imminent threat.
That three year old probably just raided his gun-loving parent's improperly stored firearm stash, better waste that sucker before he joins the Diablos, no hesitation. After all, the police keep people safe

So can I.

But a significant issue is whether some US police forces have a paramilitary conflict mindset, that trains them endlessly about threats and not so much about de-escalation and community engagement.
Just to put this out there.... the US army generally deescalates bad situations WAY better than the US police . They have to work in hostile territory with very little back up. Escalating leads to Fallujah.

They have a 5 stage protocol before you are allowed to shoot someone.

I mean, the US averages a toddler-committed shooting every day...

The thing I hate most about this country is that anybody can say any cartoonishly awful or weird thing that's happening, from toddler shootings to how many dozens of dogs cops kill a day and it's just, like, "yeah, probably"
