the officer believed he saw the butt of a handgun poking out near Monterrosa’s waist, and opened fire “due to this perceived threat.”
These kind of excuses need to stop especially when you shoot an unarmed man while he is on his knees and has his hands in the air

That's the risk one takes when one decides to join in protests/riots. Mistakes happen. Unfortunately, that cop's mistake cost the man his life.

After reading the Buzzfeed article, it looks like the state needs to fire Valejo's entire police force, and start over with well trained officers.

I don’t know if I would call this situation a mistake considering the way the officer murdered him but I do agree with you they all need replaced.

It seems like certain rules don’t apply anymore and it’s sad to watch. Our country is going backwards when it comes to race relations.
