> At first, the crowd was quiet, even peaceful, he said. But as night dropped, more began showing up. And cops came, too, with riot gear and assault rifles.
You lied. You said they were already rioting before the police turned up in riot gear.
There's no point continuing the conversation with someone willing to mislead.
And so what if he did rob a shop? The penalty for that is arrest, charge, trial, conviction, punishment. Not drag to the back of a police car, shoot him in the head.
Here's my point. Would YOU have reacted the same way? I would not. Most people would not. Why are people trying to blame the police for their actions?

And now the story takes a turn.
