This is truly disgusting.

This is truly disgusting. They just broke in and fired. Was the guy even armed for them to come with 4 armed policemen?

This is unbelievable... police invade his home and then shoot him in the face as if they are trying to kill him! they must be held accountable! I hope the SDS in gainseville can help win justice when the authorities arent doing a damn thing to take responsibility for this horrible act!
