Level 7 · 9 mo agoThe guards claiming self defense when they weren't even surrounded is pathetic. Its like players who blame lag when they miss every shot. Just admit you panicked instead of making up sniper stories.

Level 7 · 9 mo agoThe Guard’s story just doesn’t add up. Canterbury claimed students were five yards away but the film proves they were much further back. Using live ammo on unarmed students was clearly never justified.

Level 5 · 8 mo agoThat Terry Norman story is the real kicker. An FBI informant shoots first and the confession tape mysteriously vanishes? Classic federal cover up.
