Over a fuckin iPod and wallet....
now rant time:
FIrst of all, this is why guns for any other use than hunting should be out-fucking-lawed. The kid is holding a gun, and does nothing but turns his shoulders, and the cop is instantly afraid for their fucking life. A kid turns around and faces a cop when neither of them has a gun, and the kid cant do anything from long range, and the cop can taze the shit out of him. Instead, she is afraid for her life because the kid has a gun in his hand, whether or not it was pointing anywhere near her, and she shoots and kills him.
Rant part 2:
COPS SHOULD KNOW HOW TO NOT SHOOT A KID IN THE FUCKING CHEST. First of all, no shots should have been fired from the police. The kid, from what the story says, did not raise the gun, or make any motion to threaten or harm the officer. And if he did, shoot the kid in the fucking thigh, or kneecap or some non-fatal shit. Not the fucking head or chest. Cops have to learn to aim a weapon better than any of us know how to; there is no reason that they should kill a 15 year old, when they know that they are shot to stop the offender, and save their self, not to kill.
Rant part 3:
How the fuck is this murder on his friends part? That is a fucked up fucking law, made to fuck over fucking kids who fucked up a little bit, and ended up in the death of their fucking friend, and will now get fucked over by a judge and jury of fucked up fuck fucks who fucking think that it was the friends fucking fault. The cop shot the gun, the kid held a different gun, and as far as a murder goes, the kid was an innocent bystander.
	I am not usually the type to say "fuck the police", but this is a perfect example of absolute overpower in the police force, and corruption. A cop could kill whoever the fucking want, and as long as there is somebody else around that was involved in the crime, the cop will never face any punishment, and some kid who would never do anything to harm his poor friend will go to fucking jail for supposedly killing him. FUCK THAT SHIT.
tl;dr: 1) Guns need to go, 2) shoot him in the fucking leg, and 3) fuck that law.
