The awful police execution of Milton Hall: a homeless, mentally ill, African-American man

On July 1, 2012, eight white police officers fired 46 shots at Milton Hall, a homeless African-American man, and killed him in a Saginaw, Michigan, parking lot for what they claimed was an aggressive movement he made. This awful video says otherwise.

Any of you watching this could likely think of 10 different alternatives to how Milton Hall could've been apprehended in that parking lot other than being used for target practice like this. Tragically, no alternative was taken and every officer has been cleared of wrongdoing.

We have a critical problem in this country when eight armed officers can think of no other way to apprehend a mentally ill man other than firing 46 shots at him.
