That 16 year old boy was a criminal!! He wanted to be a gang banger and you see what it got him, 6 feet in the ground!!!!! Criminals don't tattoo their age on their forehead for us to see. When you play you pay!!!!! He just wasn't as good at the game. And ******** he did get caught!!! That's why he ended up where he is today!!! That officer never wanted to be put in a situation like that, but he was, and he went home to his wife and children that night!!

PUSS....what a wonderful word coming from someone who as I am sure, has never looked down the barrel of someone elses gun had to make a decision~

Just a little stab at common sense and reality- A decision had to be made that night-Whether E Harlow go to prison for killing a police officer or a police officer live the rest of his life, knowing he had to fatally shoot someone to protect not only his own life, but the many people in the area that night.

People do not have guilt for things they have no reason to be guilty of.

I dont know how many times you people have to be told that this is what the job is-just in case you missed that POINT, it is to"SERVE PROTECT".

If you think the officers want to wake every day, put on their vests to have to shoot someone, you have definitely lost the point.

Do you have any idea how many people were outside in the neighborhood that this chase took place in, up until the moment of capture? YES you see that accurately, capture. The Officer I assure you did CATCH him. I dont think E Harlow stopped and said ok officer I am tired of running lets talk? So I call that a capture.

Secondly-PROTECT- E Harlow had a gun was running through a neighborhood of people, whom I dont recall seeing anyone get on the news talking about how they tried to help E Harlow when he was being chased by the Officers. So the officers, whether you want to admit it or not were protecting all of the neighbors who were out watching this chase happen, as a suspect with a gun is considered ARMED and DANGEROUS, PERIOD, whether he is your friend or not.

To all of you who speak of how good of a friend E Harlow was to you and how much he had done for each of you. This is specific to the friends who seen and knew E Harlow was running from the LMPD that dreadful Monday night- I hope you can't sleep at night and he haunts you the rest of your life because you did nothing to help him whether it be helping him see right from wrong, or that night in general.

If your next statement is 'he was running from the police what was I gonna do' well first of all you could have jumped right out in the middle of it all, maybe if one of you had the balls to have done that, then none of this would have happened the way it did.

As always though, blaming someone else always makes people feel better. So go along blaming the LMPD for what happened that night, but make sure you remember, there were many who seen this go down none of you tried to stop it. So who exactly was the REAL as you stated 'PUSS'?
