    Pathetic: Black 4-Year-Old Misquoted To Sound Violent!

    By BrentsKnicks  |  Posted July 31, 2011  |  Chicago, Illinois
     

    A CBS news station is under fire after it misquoted a 4-year-old boy making him purposely sound violent on the air.

     

    In the video, the child tells a reporter from WBBM that the shootings  don’t scare him and that,  when he grows up, “I’m going to have me a  gun.”

     

    The comment made it seem like the streets of Chicago had a future  criminal on their hands. But the comment was taken out of context as the  station only aired the comment and not what came after.

     

    “I want to be a police officer,” said the kid. WBBM TV’s reporter responded, “Well then you will have a gun for sure.”
