Comments by "K. Rich" (@thekaerichtexas) on "Andres Guardado: 18-year-old fatally shot by LA County sheriff's deputy, family says | ABC7" video.

  1. Just googled on the latimes article. Here's a direct quote: Calderaro said Guardado, 18, was not a licensed security guard, nor was he wearing a uniform or any marked clothing. He said the handgun found at the scene was not registered. This explains some things...if its true that he wasnt licensed or wearing a uniform and did flash a gun I can see why the police interaction occurred. Im not blaming him for being shot. But he made some mistakes for sure in this case. If you aren't licensed to be an armed security guard, you cannot carry a weapon (in Texas prob california too), u aren't wearing a uniform....police don't know who u are or what you're doing. All he had to do was STOP....and CALMLY explain the situation. When u take off running with a gun you were previously flashing, of course the police are going to pursue you. A little common sense could have prevented all of this. The police need to come clean as well seems like they are being shady and tight lipped.

  3. There's a lot missing from this story and I'm a bit confused. 1. Was he a commissioned (armed) guard? Was he in uniform? 2. What lead up to the interaction with police in the first place? 3. Why would he flash a gun at police? 4 why if he was a legit security guard would he run? Security guards often have interactions with police to pass on information. 5 why did police totally destroy the camera system? It was ripped from the wires. Its like they were trying trying to destroy evidence rather than preserve it. This is a very strange story..mom not sure what happened but we need transparency from police. This makes no sense
