A police officer shot and killed a kid who was reportedly armed with a BB gun.
Here's the newspaper report of the incident:

No doubt there will be all kinds of backlash from it.
But the real question in my mind is if there's any difference in the situation as to whether the gun was a firearm or an airgun.
Anyone who practices with an airgun is aware of the holes they can make in lots of things, including a person.
What do you all think.
A kid playing outlaw, or a young criminal with a genuine weapon?
Justified, or not?
